Use when the BlockRun MCP server prints 'Update available', when asked to upgrade, update, or pin @blockrun/mcp, when a fix 'should be in the new version' but the client still runs the old one, when refreshing skills that were copied into a project, or when rolling back to a previous 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

# Upgrading BlockRun MCP

The server is run by `npx`, so "upgrading" means making npx fetch a newer version and
the client restart into it. Which of those two is the problem depends on how it was
installed.

## 1. Read how it was installed

```bash
claude mcp get blockrun          # registered command + args + env + scope
npm view @blockrun/mcp version   # what "latest" is on the registry right now
```

| Registered spec | What happens at each client start |
|---|---|
| `npx -y @blockrun/mcp@latest` | npx re-resolves `latest` against the registry and downloads if newer. **A client restart is the upgrade.** |
| `npx -y @blockrun/mcp` (no tag) | npx reuses whatever is in `~/.npm/_npx` — the version from the day it was installed. Restarting changes nothing. |
| `npx -y @blockrun/mcp@0.39.2` | Pinned on purpose. Only changes if you re-register. |

The startup notice is the server telling you it is not on `latest`:

```
[BlockRun] Update available: v0.39.2 → v0.42.0
[BlockRun] Run: claude mcp add blockrun -s user -- npx -y @blockrun/mcp@latest
```

## 2. Upgrade

**Registered with `@latest`:** restart the client. Done. If the notice persists, the cache

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add blockrunai/blockrun-mcp/blockrun-upgrade@sha256:fd8fe7bcdd421f19

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260830.d848115, 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.
