self-update
Deprecated alias for 'simetrik update'; updates the CLI to the latest version. Use 'simetrik update' instead.
Destructive action
This command modifies or deletes data irreversibly.
A deprecated alias for simetrik update. It prints a deprecation warning to stderr and then runs the
exact same update flow — detect the install method, check the CDN manifest, and atomically replace the
standalone binary if a newer version exists. The --yes flag behaves identically, skipping the
confirmation prompt.
It exists only for backwards compatibility with older scripts and muscle memory. For any new usage,
call simetrik update directly; this command may be removed in a future release.
See also: update, version. Requires CLI access. See permissions.
Flags
-y, --yes— Skip confirmation prompt
