Command Reference

update

Update spin to the latest version (on system/user installs only).

Usage

Usage for "spin update"
spin update

Special notes

This will only run on machines that have spin installed to the system. This means if you installed spin via "composer" or "yarn", this command will not execute.

Automatic update checks

Spin periodically asks if you'd like to check for updates. That prompt only appears in an interactive terminal, so CI pipelines, scripts, and AI coding agents are never blocked waiting for an answer.

To turn the check off entirely, set SPIN_SKIP_UPDATE_CHECK to true.

Disable automatic update checks
export SPIN_SKIP_UPDATE_CHECK=true
