How the Copilot and Codex CLIs are kept up to date on a machine, and how to install the daily upgrade job — plain cron on an always-on machine, a launchd agent on a laptop (cron silently skips runs the machine sleeps through). Use when: setting Aide up on a new machine, the AI tools have gone stale, choosing between cron and launchd, editing core/scripts/upgrade-ai-tools. Do NOT use for: updating Claude Code itself (it auto-updates), checking for news (use check-news).

# Updating the AI tools The CLI tools are kept up to date automatically: - **Claude Code** updates itself (auto-update on by default). - **Copilot and Codex** are managed by [mise](https://mise.jdx.dev/), pinned to `latest` in `~/.config/mise/config.toml`. `core/scripts/upgrade-ai-tools` runs `mise upgrade` on the tools + `claude update`. It is installed to `~/.local/bin/` by each AI installer (via `core/scripts/_install-bin.sh`). The script runs daily at 08:00 — set it up once per machine, and pick the mechanism by whether the machine sleeps: **Always-on machine (desktop, server):** plain cron. ```bash crontab -e # Add: 0 8 * * * ~/.local/bin/upgrade-ai-tools ``` **Laptop:** a launchd agent instead. cron silently skips any run the machine sleeps through and never catches up, so a lid shut past 08:00 means no upgrade that day. launchd runs a missed `StartCalendarInterval` job on the next wake. Save as `~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.<user>.upgrade-ai-tools.plist`, then `launchctl bootstrap gui/$(id -u) <path>`: ```xml <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd"> <plist version="1.0"> <dict> <key>Label</key> <string>com.USER.upgrade-ai-tools</string> <key>ProgramArguments</key> <array> <string>/Users/USER/.local/bin/upgrade-ai-tools</string> </array> <key>StartCalendarInterval</key> <dict> <key>Hour</key><integer>8</integer> <key>Minute</key><integer
