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

Reads the installed version from
```
version.json
```
(the
```
version
```
field bundled with this skill).
Fetches the latest version from the remote repository (GitHub raw content).
Compares versions using semver. Returns
```
{"has_update": true}
```
if a newer version exists.
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:

bash

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

CLI Arguments

Argument	Description
`--print-response`	Print result as formatted JSON to stdout
`--force`	Bypass 24-hour rate limit and check immediately

Output Format

json

{
  "has_update": true
}

Configuration

Environment Variable	Default	Description
`QWEN_SKILLS_REPO`	`QianWen-AI/qianwen-ai`	GitHub 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.
