+    "Why this matters: Chrome's native messaging keeps the host process alive for the session. Pre-0.5.21, `chrome-relay update` refreshed the on-disk package but Chrome kept routing through the OLD host. The HTTP bridge served by that old host then reported its own embedded `CHROME_RELAY_VERSION`, which falsely tripped the cli-outdated nudge against the newer extension. Users running the very command the nudge told them to run found the nudge still firing afterwards \u2014 the worst kind of UX bug.",

Agents that were passing `--inactive` should drop it (the behavior is now the default). Commander will reject the unknown flag \u2014 that's the right signal to update.",
