 ## Upgrading
 
 ```bash
-# Check if an update is available
-minions version
-
-# Update the npm package and apply changes
-npm update -g @yemi33/minions
-minions init --force
+minions update
 ```
 
-**What gets updated:** Engine code (`.js`, `.html`), new playbooks, new agent charters, new docs, `CHANGELOG.md`.
+One command — pulls the latest npm package and applies the update automatically. Equivalent to `npm update -g @yemi33/minions && minions init --force`.
 
-**What's preserved:** Your `config.json`, agent history, notes, knowledge base, routing, skills, and any `.md` files you've customized (charters, playbooks). If a new playbook or charter is added in an update, it's installed automatically without touching your existing ones.
-
-Upgrades now skip the interactive repo scan automatically. If you want to re-run discovery later, run `minions scan`. To skip scanning during the very first install, pass `--skip-scan` and link projects manually when ready.
