Research direction
Start with package.json and the CLI's command-registration and startup entry points. Check how the current version is exposed and how commands invoke npm or installation scripts, then review the npm registry endpoint in the issue. Done means upgrade, version output, opt-in startup checks, and the notification behavior work without prompting when already up to date.
