```bash
elizaos upgrade [options]
```

Run this command from the root of a generated project or plugin. The command reads `.elizaos/template.json`, renders the latest version of the same template, updates managed files, and reports conflicts.

## Options

| Option | Description |
| --- | --- |
| `--check` | Preview changes without writing files. |
| `--dry-run` | Preview changes without writing files. |
| `--skip-upstream` | Skip updating the upstream eliza checkout. |

## Examples

```bash
elizaos upgrade --check
elizaos upgrade
```

Use `--check` before writing changes when you have local edits.
