What it does

Update is an agent skill from kv0906/pm-kit. Check for and apply PM-Kit framework updates from GitHub releases. Reads local VERSION, queries latest release, shows changelog, and runs update script.

Its SKILL.md is about 660 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Development, covering Changelog and release notes. It works with GitHub. The repository describes itself as: AI-augmented PM workspace for Coding Agents — daily standups, decisions, blockers, docs, and sprint reviews as markdown skills. The licence is MIT.

Tasks that involve Changelog and release notes

Example prompts

Requirements

Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Bash, Read, Glob

Workflow steps

5 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

Check Current Version
Check Latest Release
Compare Versions
Apply Update (if user confirms)
Post-Update Summary

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 2cb5d9f. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

Tool permissions
Pre-approves these tools, so the agent can use them without asking each time:
- Bash
- Read
- Glob
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
- git
- curl
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:
- api.github.com
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Update loads about 655 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 40 tokens; SKILL.md has 209 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it: ~40
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches: ~655

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check: notes

The automated check noted patterns worth knowing about, such as sudo or a known installer.

NotePre-approves every shell command (allowed-tools: Bash)SKILL.md

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

/update — Framework Updates

Check for new PM-Kit releases and safely apply framework updates without touching your notes or config.

Usage

/update           # Check + apply if available
/update --check   # Check only, no download
/update --dry-run # Preview what would change without applying

What This Skill Does

1. Check Current Version

Read the local VERSION file to determine the installed version.

bash

cat VERSION

If VERSION doesn't exist, tell the user to run ./scripts/setup.sh first.

2. Check Latest Release

Query the GitHub API for the latest release:

bash

# Detect repo from git remote, fallback to kv0906/pm-kit
REPO_SLUG="kv0906/pm-kit"
REMOTE_URL="$(git remote get-url origin 2>/dev/null || true)"
if [ -n "$REMOTE_URL" ]; then
  REPO_SLUG="$(echo "$REMOTE_URL" | sed -E 's#.*[:/]([^/]+/[^/.]+)(\.git)?$#\1#')"
fi

curl -sS "https://api.github.com/repos/${REPO_SLUG}/releases/latest"

3. Compare Versions

If local version matches latest: report "You're on the latest version (vX.Y.Z)"
If update available: show the version diff and changelog excerpt

4. Apply Update (if user confirms)

Run the update script, passing through any flags the user provided:

bash

# If user ran /update --check:
./scripts/update.sh --check

# If user ran /update --dry-run:
./scripts/update.sh --dry-run

# If user ran /update (no flags):
./scripts/update.sh

The script will:

Back up current framework files to _archive/_updates/{date}/
Download and extract the latest release
Overwrite framework files (skills, templates, scripts, docs)
Skip hybrid files (_core/config.yaml, .gitignore) — shows diff instead
Never touch user content (notes, meetings, etc.)
Update the VERSION file

5. Post-Update Summary

After the script completes, summarize:

Files updated and files skipped
Backup location
Any hybrid files that need manual merge
Remind user to run /push to commit changes

What Gets Updated vs Preserved

Category	Examples	Action
Framework	`CLAUDE.md`, `_templates/`, `.claude/`, `scripts/`, `handbook/*`	Overwrite (backed up first)
Hybrid	`_core/config.yaml`, `.gitignore`	Diff shown, user merges
User content	`00-inbox/`, `daily/`, `decisions/`, `blockers/`, `meetings/`	Never touched
