Check and update an existing StyleSeed installation by exact rule/skill revision, preserve project-owned design decisions, then recompile and verify the effective bundle.

Before this workflow, follow the once-per-session update preflight.

StyleSeed update

Registry-first artifact boundary

When .styleseed/project.json and .styleseed/artifacts/index.json exist, resolve the requested artifact ID first, then read only .styleseed/bundles/<artifact-id>.md and .styleseed/manifests/<artifact-id>.json. Never fall back to the global legacy bundle for a registry project. Legacy projects may use .styleseed/effective-rules.md only when no registry exists.

Update the engine payload, not the user's product UI. A release version describes a published
line; engineRevision identifies the exact maintained rules, skills, entry docs, and palette
engine. Two installs with the same release version are not proven equal until their revisions
match.

The checker verifies the payload for the active install channel. A repository/plugin checkout
uses the full core inventory; a project-local Agent Skills install uses the executable skills
inventory. The published endpoint must expose both the engine revision and, for a skills-only
install, skillsRevision. The project manifest continues to record the engine revision that
compiled its method bundle.
