.SH NAME
glab-skills-update - Update installed agent skills to the current shipped version. (EXPERIMENTAL)


.SH SYNOPSIS
\fBglab skills update [name] [flags]\fP


.SH DESCRIPTION
Re-fetch installed agent skills from their source (bundled in this
glab binary, or the curated remote registry) and overwrite the on-disk
copy if it differs.

.PP
By default, updates only the named skill in every well-known location
it is installed (the current project's '.agents/skills/' and the
user-scope '~/.agents/skills/'). Use --all to update every installed
skill in those locations.

.PP
Skills whose on-disk content already matches the source are left alone.
Skills installed via 'glab skills install --path' are not considered —
update only knows about the two well-known locations.

.PP
This feature is an experiment and is not ready for production use.
It might be unstable or removed at any time.
