ss-update
Update StyleSeed engine in your project — analyzes what's outdated and updates safely
npx skills add bitjaru/styleseed --skill ss-update --agent claude-code
Same command for any agent — swap --agent for codex, cursor, copilot.
Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.
# StyleSeed Update Assistant ## When NOT to use - For first-time setup → use `/ss-setup` - For just one new component or skin — copy that file manually - For projects that have heavily diverged from upstream — manual diff review first - Updating the engine is separate from re-designing your UI. Steps 1–5 update engine files only; if you want an old generic build re-done to the new standard, that's **Step 6 (Retrofit)**. Automatically detect and update StyleSeed files in the current project. ## Reassure the user first Updating is **safe and reversible**. Updates are additive — new rules, components, skins, and skills get added; your `theme.css`, your components, and your app code are never overwritten, and design rules only ever get added (never changed in a breaking way). A big version jump looks like a lot changed, but it's almost all additions. **Do NOT warn the user that the build will break** unless you actually find a changed component/import API. Tell them: commit first, copy the new rules + skills, run a build, and `git reset --hard` if anything is off — they can't permanently break their project. ## Instructions ### Step 1: Detect Current Setup Scan the project to find wher

What does the ss-update skill do?
Update StyleSeed engine in your project — analyzes what's outdated and updates safely
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add bitjaru/styleseed --skill ss-update --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From bitjaru/styleseed, a repository with 867 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
