✨ glab(1) — the GitLab CLI, but specifically the glab duo cli update part ✨

Hey bestie 💖 you're looking at the manual for glab-duo-cli-update, which lives inside the big glab family. That glab(1) up at the top? That's just the manual name, we're not copying it again, you're welcome 😌

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

glab-duo-cli-update — literally just updates the GitLab Duo CLI binary to the latest compatible version. That's the whole job. Slay. 💅

---

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

glab duo cli update [flags]

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so here's the tea ☕ — this command checks if there's a newer GitLab Duo CLI version out there and installs it for you. And if the binary isn't even installed yet? No stress 🫶 glab just downloads the latest compatible version. Iconic behavior honestly.

Updates stay within the major version that this version of glab supports. So if there's a newer major version out there, it's not gonna jump to it — you gotta update glab first, bestie. Main character energy requires the right prerequisites 💀

And lowkey important: updates do not apply when you're using a custom binary set with GLAB_DUO_CLI_BINARY_PATH or the duo_cli_binary_path configuration key. Custom path means it's your problem now 🙈

oh also — glab duo cli --update does the exact same thing. Same vibe, different spelling ✨

---

💖 OPTIONS 💖

• -y, --yes[=false] — Skips the download prompt when the binary isn't installed. Basically "yes bestie just do it, don't ask me" 🔥

---

🌈 OPTIONS INHERITED FROM PARENT COMMANDS 🌈

• -h, --help[=false] — Shows help for this command. The classic. The icon. The one everyone types first 👑

---
