Details

Download and install a newer ktm from the Kapptivate release server.

By default, updates to the newest version on your install channel: stable production releases only (default) beta includes pre-releases

The running binary is verified (sha256, mandatory) and atomically replaced. The channel and download source are read from the install marker written by the installer; flags override them. Pin or roll back with --version <X>.

This command talks only to the public release server — it does not require authentication.

Global flags (--output, --debug, --host, …) apply to every command. See the command reference overview.
