Re-install / upgrade harness-kit in the current project to the version bundled in the installed plugin. Run after /plugin update harness-kit fetches a newer plugin version.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
Upgrade harness-kit in user's project to version bundled in the installed plugin.
Plugin cache has no git remote, so newest source comes from the **plugin** itself. Order matters, the restart is not optional:
1. `/plugin update harness-kit` fetches newer plugin into the cache.
2. **Restart Claude Code.** Plugins load at startup; `${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}` only repoints to the new version after a restart.
3. This skill re-lays the harness into the project.
Skip step 2 and this skill runs the OLD loaded `update.sh`, which re-lays the old version. `update.sh` now detects a newer-but-unloaded version sitting in the cache and stops with a restart reminder instead of downgrading.
## Run
```bash
bash "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/setup/update.sh" "${CLAUDE_PROJECT_DIR}"
```
`update.sh` in plugin cache (no `.git`) lays down the loaded plugin version. It backs up existing `.claude/settings.json` and reports version delta via `.claude/.hk-version`. If output says a newer cache version exists, user skipped the restart, tell them to restart and rerun.
Relay output verbatim. Tell user to **restart Claude Code** after (so the newly-laid hooks/scripts load).

How to install
mdr add pierry/harness-kit/update@sha256:7548927967d9ace2The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260619.e64eb10, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
