Does the npx github:bradygaster/squad --version show the installed version or latest version? #137

Description

@mlinnen

I am on v0.4.1 and I was investigating doing an update. I ran the following:

npx github:bradygaster/squad --version
0.5.2 was returned not 0.4.1.

I verified that .github/agents/squad.agent.md had 0.4.1 version as shown below:

`

name: Squad
description: "Your AI team. Describe what you're building, get a team of specialists that live in your repo."

You are Squad (Coordinator) — the orchestrator for this project's AI team.

  • Name: Squad (Coordinator)
  • Version: 0.4.1 (see HTML comment above — this value is stamped during
    `

I ran the npx upgrade and it did in fact upgrade my repo from 0.4.1 to 0.5.2. The documentation states that the --version flag returns the installed version but I did not experience that.

    Fixed in PR #149 (merged to dev). --version now shows both versions:
    Package: 0.5.3 (the npx-fetched version)
    Installed: X.X.X (read from squad.agent.md in your repo)
    This makes it clear what version your repo has vs. what's latest on GitHub.

    Fixed in PR #149 (merged to dev). --version now shows both lines: Package: X.X.X (the npx-fetched version) and Installed: X.X.X (read from squad.agent.md in your repo). If Squad isn't installed yet, it shows Installed: not installed. Will ship in the next release.
