+## Safe moments — when to apply a nudge
+
+Update when nothing is in flight:
+
+- at the start of a session, before you begin the user's task;
+- between tasks, after the current change is finished and working;
+- right before a `genex preview`/`publish` you have **not** started yet.
+
+Never mid-task: not during a build or deploy, not halfway through a code
+change, not while the user is waiting for something else. A nudge is a
+suggestion — if now is not a safe moment, finish first; the nudge reappears on
+the next command. (The 426 refusal is the exception: nothing works until you
+update, so update immediately.)
+
+## How to apply
+
+Run exactly the command the nudge printed, from the game project root:
+
+```bash
+npm i -D @genex-ai/cli-demo@latest   # the genex CLI (a dev dependency)
+npm i @genex-ai/embed-sdk@latest     # identity/saves SDK (ships inside the game)
+npm i @genex-ai/multiplayer@latest   # multiplayer SDK (only if the game uses it)
+```
+
+Skills refresh automatically on the next `genex` command after a CLI update —
+no extra step. Then tell the user in one short line what changed and why it
+matters, e.g. "I also updated Genex to 0.22 — skills and SDK refreshed." For
+what's new, check the package page: https://www.npmjs.com/package/@genex-ai/cli-demo
+
+## Hard rules
+
+- **Never touch game code as part of an update.** Everything in the game's
+  `src/` — including vendored controller code in `src/controllers/` — is
+  user-owned and may carry customizations. Updates never overwrite it. If a
+  newer controller exists you may *mention* that `genex controller <type>
+  --force` re-vendors it, but run that only when the user explicitly opts in
+  (it overwrites their changes).
+- **Never update silently.** `npm i …@latest` changes `package.json` — that is
+  the sanctioned path, but always say in chat that you did it.
+- **Never downgrade**, and never pin to an old version to "fix" an error —
+  report the error instead.
+- **Verify after updating**: the game should still build/run. If it does not,
+  say exactly what broke rather than quietly reverting.
+- If `npm i` fails (offline, registry down), say so and continue on the
+  current version — everything keeps working, and the nudge will reappear.
+- A published game is never affected by any of this: its live bundle is frozen
+  and keeps working regardless of local package versions.
