Update checking

ButtonsCLI can check for desktop updates when the app starts. If a newer version is available, it shows a notification in the main window.

What you see

An update notification may include:

• the new version number
• a message about the release
• Download and install, when in-app update installation is available
• a download link, when the build points to an external release page

If the app is offline or the update service is unavailable, no update notice appears.

Manual checking

There is no separate manual Check for Updates command in the current app. Restart the app to trigger the startup check.

What update checking sends

Update checking does not send terminal contents, commands, clipboard text, files, or secrets.

The request is limited to update-related app and platform information needed to decide whether a newer desktop build applies.
