Update Installed AI Tools

Use Update tools under Settings → AI tools when TermSquad reports tool updates. This updates installed tools on the selected computer; it does not install every supported agent or buy provider access.

Update your installed tools

1. Save your project changes.
2. Let important agent work reach a stopping point.
3. Select the computer and open Settings → AI tools.
4. Choose Update tools when the button is available.
5. Wait for the operation to finish and read any result message.
6. Open a fresh agent session and run a small check.

To inspect a specific CLI version, use its version command in the agent terminal, such as codex --version. Existing processes may continue using the version they started with.

Does an update sign me in again?

Updating binaries and authenticating with a provider are different operations. The update flow does not intentionally reconnect your accounts. If a provider now requires authentication, use Connect for that tool.

A successful update does not guarantee that your account can use a particular model. Refresh the model catalog separately when configuring Squad.

If an update fails

Read the displayed failure, check computer connectivity and free disk space, and avoid starting overlapping updates. If the tool still runs, record its version before seeking help.

Update tools is also separate from Herdr’s automatic updates and Ubuntu package updates. See TermSquad and Software Updates and an operation or update is stuck.
