How to Update
How to receive updates and upgrade bear-notes-mcp to the latest version.
Claude Desktop Extension
Download the latest .mcpb file from the
GitHub Releases page.
Double-click the file — Claude Desktop will prompt you to install.
The new version replaces the previous one automatically.
Claude Code / Codex / Gemini CLI
If your configuration uses npx -y bear-notes-mcp@latest, you're already set — npx fetches the latest version from npm every time the server starts. No manual update needed.
To check which version is running, ask your AI assistant: "What version of bear-notes-mcp are you using?"
Other MCP Clients
Same as above — if your MCP client configuration uses npx -y bear-notes-mcp@latest, updates happen automatically on each server start.
