Vibgrate Help

Keeping the Vibgrate CLI current ensures you get the latest scanners and ecosystem support. This short guide covers the supported ways to upgrade and how to confirm the result.

Upgrade with the built-in updater

The simplest path is the built-in updater, which checks for and installs the latest version:

vg update

Upgrade with your package manager

If you installed through a package manager, reinstall the latest version with the same tool.

npm:

npm install -g @vibgrate/cli

pnpm:

pnpm add -g @vibgrate/cli

yarn:

yarn global add @vibgrate/cli

bun:

bun add -g @vibgrate/cli

Project-pinned installs

If the CLI is a project dev dependency, update it in that project so the whole team moves together:

npm install --save-dev @vibgrate/cli

Confirm the version

After upgrading, verify the active version:

vg --version

Then run a quick scan to confirm everything works:

vg

Troubleshooting

  • Old version still active — you may have both a global and a project-local install; check which one resolves on your PATH.
  • vg update cannot write — if the CLI was installed by a package manager into a managed location, upgrade through that package manager instead.
