Verify:

nanny --version

Upgrade

curl -fsSL https://install.nanny.run | sh

Re-run the install script. It overwrites the existing binary.

irm https://install.nanny.run/windows | iex

Uninstall

nanny uninstall

Troubleshooting

`nanny: command not found` after install

macOS / Linux
Windows

Open a new terminal window. If the issue persists, confirm the install directory is in your PATH:

echo $PATH

Open a new terminal window. PATH changes do not apply to already-open sessions. To verify the entry was added:

[Environment]::GetEnvironmentVariable("PATH", "User") -split ";" | Where-Object { $_ -match "nanny" }

Windows Defender blocks the downloadThe binary is unsigned. If Defender quarantines it, add an exclusion for %LOCALAPPDATA%\nanny\ or download the .zip directly from the GitHub Releases page and extract manually.
