Before / After Comparison

1
Before

Without this skill, users had to manually visit the GitHub repository, find the latest version information, and compare it with their local version. This process was time-consuming and often led to missed updates, leaving skill packs outdated and missing new features or security fixes.

After

This skill automatically detects the latest version of the QianWen-AI skill pack and promptly notifies users when an update is available. This ensures skills are always up-to-date without manual intervention, significantly improving the efficiency and accuracy of skill maintenance.

Qwen Update Checker

Automatic version checker for the QianWen-AI/qianwen-ai skill pack. Compares the locally installed version against the latest release on GitHub and notifies the user when an update is available.

This skill is referenced by all other QianWen-AI/qianwen-ai. When any skill runs, it checks if this skill is installed and delegates version checking here.

How It Works

  1. Reads the installed version from version.json (the version field bundled with this skill).
  2. Fetches the latest version from the remote repository (GitHub raw content).
  3. Compares versions using semver. Returns {"has_update": true} if a newer version exists.
  4. Records the check timestamp (last_interaction) in <repo_root>/.agents/state.json to rate-limit network requests to once every 24 hours.

Usage

Other skills invoke this script automatically. You can also run it manually:

python3 <path-to-this-skill>/scripts/check_update.py --print-response

CLI Arguments

ArgumentDescription
--print-responsePrint result as formatted JSON to stdout
--forceBypass 24-hour rate limit and check immediately

Output Format

{
  "has_update": true
}

Configuration

Environment VariableDefaultDescription
QWEN_SKILLS_REPOQianWen-AI/qianwen-aiGitHub repo for remote version check

State File

The last_interaction timestamp is stored at <repo_root>/.agents/state.json for rate-limiting. Check results are not cached in the state file. This file persists across sessions and is shared with gossamer.py for fatigue control.
