A version-checking command for the Beads command-line tool, its plugin, and its MCP server. It compares installed versions and reports whether they work together.

Use it to inspect Beads and plugin versions, check MCP server status, confirm compatibility, and identify needed updates.

It helps find version mismatches that can prevent Beads components from working correctly. It also gives update instructions when an older version is detected.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00005	$0.00224
Opus 5.5	$0.00002	$0.00090
Sonnet 5.5	$0.00001	$0.00045

Security

Grade C, and why

version scanned grade C with 2 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2mo ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

What it actually says

Check the installed versions of beads components and verify compatibility.

Note: The MCP server automatically checks bd CLI version >= 0.9.0 on startup. This command provides detailed version info and update instructions.

Use the beads MCP tools to:

Run bd version via bash to get the CLI version
Check the plugin version (0.9.2)
Compare versions and report any mismatches

Display:

bd CLI version (from bd version)
Plugin version (0.9.2)
MCP server version (0.9.2)
MCP server status (from stats tool or connection test)
Compatibility status (✓ compatible or ⚠️ update needed)

If versions are mismatched, provide instructions:

Update bd CLI: curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/steveyegge/beads/main/scripts/install.sh | bash
Update plugin: /plugin update beads
Restart Claude Code after updating

Suggest checking for updates if the user is on an older version.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
