Reticle Docs: verification for AI coding agents

reticle update --rollback is the undo for reticle update. It reinstalls the version update replaced (recorded in the update manifest), then exits so the next start runs it.

npx @reticlehq/server update --rollback

reticle rollback is the old name. It still works for one release and prints one line naming update --rollback.

What it prints

Two structured lines on the happy path, reticle_rollback_applying and reticle_rollback_applied, each with the version and the executionKind (global, local or npx). A failure logs reticle_rollback_failed with the error message.

Run from a one-off npx download (no global or project install), there is nothing to reinstall. It logs reticle_rollback_npx_strategy with a note to pin the version in your MCP config (for example @reticlehq/server@<version> in .mcp.json), and does not exit. Pin the version there yourself.

Telemetry records the move as a version_changed event with direction: "rollback", which is treated as a release-quality alarm rather than a routine version move.

Exit codes

Code	Meaning
`0`	The previous version was reinstalled and the process exited. Also `0` under `npx`, where nothing is reinstalled: see the warning above
`1`	There was nothing to roll back to, or the restore threw

Worked example

On the global install the installer puts on your PATH (under npx there is nothing to roll back):

reticle update
# the new build misbehaves:
reticle update --rollback
reticle version
