omd:update

Safely update an existing oh-my-design installation in place and verify it afterward. Use when the user asks to update, upgrade, refresh, reinstall, or check whether their OmD skills, agents, hooks, or reference catalog are current.

Markdown instructions
A SKILL.md file the model loads on demand, so it only costs tokens when a request actually matches.
Works with any LLM
AI skills are plain Markdown, not provider-specific code, so this works with GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model.
1 bundled files
Scripts, templates, and references the model can read while it works. Files are read-only and never executed.
Open source
Published by kwakseongjae on GitHub. Read the source before you install it.

Installation

Install the Omd:Update AI skill in TypingMind to use it with any LLM, or drop it into another agent that reads SKILL.md.

Install in TypingMind

TypingMind installs a skill straight from its GitHub folder — it reads SKILL.md, bundles the resource files, and stores the result locally.

Open the app and go to Plugins → Skills.
Choose "Install from GitHub".
Paste the skill folder URL below and confirm.
https://github.com/kwakseongjae/oh-my-design/tree/main/.claude/skills/omd-update
Enable the skill in any chat where you want it available.

Plugins → Skills → Add skill → From GitHub URL, then paste the folder URL and press Continue.

Install in another agent

Any agent that reads the Agent Skills format can use this skill — copy the folder into that agent's skills directory.

Claude Code — .claude/skills

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/kwakseongjae/oh-my-design.git /tmp/oh-my-design
mkdir -p .claude/skills
cp -r /tmp/oh-my-design/.claude/skills/omd-update .claude/skills/kwakseongjae-omd-update

Restart Claude Code after copying so it picks up the new skill.

Use it in TypingMind

Enable Omd:Update in any TypingMind chat and the model takes it from there. Its name and description sit in the system prompt, and the moment a request matches, the model loads the full instructions itself — you never invoke it by hand, and it costs no tokens until it is actually used.

The model loads Omd:Update on its own as soon as a request matches it.

Works with any AI model

AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so Omd:Update is not tied to the model it was written for. Install it once in TypingMind and use it with GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama, or a local model you run yourself — all on your own API keys.

Loaded only when it is needed
The system prompt carries just the name and description. The instructions are fetched on the first matching request, so an idle skill costs nothing.
Switch models mid-chat
Because the skill is instructions rather than code, changing model does not break it — the next model reads the same SKILL.md.

Skill instructions

This is the SKILL.md content the model loads. Read it before installing — a skill is instructions your model will follow.

Update oh-my-design

Update only the OmD installation the user already has. Preserve its project/global scope, installed channels, Cursor compatibility mode, DESIGN.md, references added by the user, and every file outside OmD ownership.

Workflow

Run from the intended project root unless the user explicitly requests the global installation.
Use the latest package as the executor:
```
bash
npx oh-my-design-cli@latest update
```
For a global installation, append --global. For another project root, append --dir <path>.
Never add --force. The update command detects installed channels, preserves the existing scope, refreshes managed files, and runs the equivalent of a post-update doctor check.
If the command reports a protected local difference, stop. Show the exact scoped repair command or manual action it prints; do not overwrite the file on the user's behalf.
Report the before/after state, preserved scope and channels, and any skipped drift. Do not claim success if the exit code is non-zero.
Tell the user to restart the coding agent, then run:
```
bash
```

npx oh-my-design-cli@latest doctor --self-test



## Safety contract

- Do not switch project ↔ global scope.
- Do not install channels that were not already installed.
- Do not enable proof policy, hooks, or Cursor Agent Skills that were previously absent.
- Do not update deprecated MCP configuration.
- Do not use `--force`, delete drifted files, or replace symlinks automatically.
- Do not edit `DESIGN.md` or product files during an OmD update.

If no installation exists, explain that this is a fresh install and use `npx oh-my-design-cli@latest` only after the user confirms installation intent.

Bundled files

The model reads these on demand while the skill is loaded. They are exposed as readable files and are never executed.

Frequently asked questions

What does the Omd:Update AI skill do?

Why use Omd:Update on TypingMind?

Because you install it once and use it with any model. Omd:Update is plain Markdown rather than provider-specific code, so the same skill runs on GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model — and you can switch model mid-chat without it breaking. TypingMind runs on your own API keys, so you pay providers directly instead of a per-seat subscription, and your skills and chats stay in your own storage.

How do I install Omd:Update in TypingMind?

Open Plugins → Skills → Install from GitHub in TypingMind and paste https://github.com/kwakseongjae/oh-my-design/tree/main/.claude/skills/omd-update. TypingMind reads its SKILL.md and bundles its files and installs it as a skill you can enable per chat.

Which AI models can use Omd:Update?

Any model you connect in TypingMind. AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, and local models can all load this skill when a request matches it.

How many AI models can I use with Omd:Update?

As many as you like. As long as a model supports skills, you can use Omd:Update with it — GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama and more — all on TypingMind with your own API keys.

Is the Omd:Update AI skill free?

Yes. It is published on GitHub by kwakseongjae under the MIT license. You only pay your own AI provider for the tokens you use.

What are AI skills?

An AI skill is a reusable instruction bundle that teaches an AI model how to do one specific task. It follows the open Agent Skills format: a SKILL.md file with a name and description, plus any scripts, templates or reference files the model may need. The model reads the instructions only when your request matches the skill, so an installed skill costs nothing until it is used.

How are AI skills different from plugins or MCP servers?

A plugin or MCP server gives a model new tools to call — code that runs somewhere and returns a result. An AI skill gives the model knowledge and process instead: how to approach a task, which steps to follow, what good output looks like. Skills are plain Markdown, so they need no server, no API key and no runtime, and they work with any model.
