 Supports Node.js 22 and newer. Node.js 24 is recommended.
 
+## Updates
+
+`ai` checks for a newer release each time it starts, and offers to install it
+for you. TheGitAI serves the current release only, so an older CLI can fail
+partway through a session. Press Enter to update — the CLI installs it and asks
+you to start `ai` again, so the whole session runs one version — or choose
+**Skip** to go on with the version you have. Skipping lasts for that session
+only; the next start asks again. Ctrl+C quits without installing anything.
