Problem Statement
Having the nag about a new version pop up so many times per week and doing the upgrade is annoying. copy, ctrl-c, paste, enter, wait, up arrow, enter. Takes the user out of the flow.
Proposed Solution
Have an auto-upgrade in background thing that when the upgrade completes it seamlessly restarts and resumes. I'm not watching the UI all the time anyway.
Alternative Solutions
- Do it the same way as Codex where you can action it without highlight, copy, ctrl-c, paste, enter, wait, up arrow, enter
- Just be smarter about showing it, like don't show it if the changes are so trivial that an upgrade is isn't really worth it.
