✓ floo 2026.09.01.1 is up to date.

Releases are date-versioned (YYYY.MM.DD, plus a counter for a same-day re-release). When a newer release is available, the final line names both versions: Updated floo from 2026.09.01 to 2026.09.01.1.

floo version can replace the installed binary when it finds a newer release. Set FLOO_NO_UPDATE_CHECK=1 when you only need the current version without a network check or update.

Update the floo CLI to the latest release or to a specific version.

floo update
floo update --version v2026.09.01.1

floo update mutates the installed binary in place. It downloads the target release and overwrites the file at floo’s current path on disk. There is no automatic rollback. If you need to revert, reinstall the desired version with the installer or download the binary directly. Use floo update --preflight to see what would be installed without touching the binary.

The shipped updater downloads the target release and replaces the installed binary in place.
