update_local_mcp
Diagnostics & system · Windows
Effect: read (strongest supported action). Status: gated.
Reviewed effect evidence: go-server/internal/tools/system.go: UpdateLocalMcpHandler only GETs version metadata and reads local version markers, then returns updateVerdict. The historical description/destructive annotation overstates its effect.
Gated means the tool requires an installed app, a connected account, permission, or runtime availability. Check those requirements on the listed platform before using it.
Windows
Purpose
Checks whether an LMCP update is available for this computer and whether one is already downloaded. Read-only: it installs nothing — updates download in the background and apply on the next restart (lmcp_install_upgrade installs now). The first call returns a preview; confirm=true checks.
Required inputs
No required inputs are declared in this platform's schema. Optional selectors and runtime requirements may still apply.
Permissions and confirmation
Explicit confirmation parameter: inspect the schema and tool description before any real call. The documentation example keeps confirm false. Obtain user authorization before performing the action.
- Use only the apps, accounts and resources authorized by the user on this platform. Consult this tool's platform-specific description for its connection and permission requirements; this catalog does not assert additional OAuth scopes or OS entitlements.
