Batch Updates

The Updates tab (press 3) shows all tools that have newer versions available and lets you upgrade them in batch.

How It Works

klim compares your installed versions against the latest versions available from your package managers. Tools with available updates appear in this tab with both current and latest versions displayed.

Keybindings

Key	Action
↑ / ↓	Navigate

f	Filter by category

Upgrade Workflow

1. Switch to the Updates tab (press 3)
2. Review the list of outdated tools
3. Press Space to select individual tools, or a to select all
4. Press u to start the batch upgrade

Upgrade Commands

klim delegates upgrades to native package managers:

Source	Command
Homebrew	brew upgrade <package>
winget	winget upgrade <package>
apt	sudo apt install --only-upgrade <package>
Chocolatey	choco upgrade <package>
Scoop	scoop update <package>
snap	sudo snap refresh <package>
npm	npm update -g <package>

After upgrading, klim automatically rescans to verify the new versions.

CLI Alternative

For non-interactive upgrades, you can use the standard package manager commands directly. klim’s list command shows which tools need updating:

# Show all tools with update status
klim list

# Filter to a specific category
klim list --category Cloud
