SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? CopilotKit skills loaded into your AI agent can become stale, containing outdated API names or incorrect information that no longer matches the current CopilotKit release. This Skill refreshes that knowledge so the agent's guidance stays accurate. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Fresh Skill Installation: Runs npx skills add copilotkit/skills --full-depth -y to perform a fresh clone from GitHub, bypassing any cached versions. - Cross-Tool Support: Works across Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Gemini CLI, and other tools, detecting which are installed and updating skills for each. - Use Case: When the agent references a CopilotKit API that no longer exists or behaves differently than documented, trigger this Skill to pull the latest skill definitions, then start a new session to load the updated knowledge. ## Quick Start Ask the agent to update or refresh the CopilotKit skills, then start a new session after the command completes.

Frequently Asked Questions about copilotkit-self-update

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I update CopilotKit skills in my AI agent?▼

Run the command npx skills add copilotkit/skills --full-depth -y in your terminal. This performs a fresh clone from GitHub, always fetching the latest version regardless of cached content. Start a new session afterward to load the updates.

How to refresh stale CopilotKit knowledge in Claude Code or Cursor?▼

Invoke the skill update command, which detects which tools are installed, including Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, and Gemini CLI, and updates the skills for each one. A new session is required to pick up the refreshed skills.

Does this update the CopilotKit codebase or project dependencies?▼

No, this only refreshes the SKILL.md files that teach the agent about CopilotKit. It does not modify your project's CopilotKit packages, dependencies, or application code.

Why does the agent use wrong CopilotKit API names?▼

Wrong API names usually mean the loaded skills are outdated relative to the current CopilotKit release. Refreshing the skills pulls the latest definitions from GitHub, after which a new session loads the corrected knowledge.

When should I not use the skills update command?▼

Avoid it when your issue is with the CopilotKit library itself rather than the agent's knowledge, since this only updates skill files. For package bugs or version upgrades, update the CopilotKit dependencies in your project instead.
