31`claude-science update --to <build>` installs one specific build. `<build>` is an 8-character build ID such as `3f9a01bc`, not a version number. `claude-science update --check` prints the ID of the installed build as `Current`.
31On a Mac where Claude Science opens in its own window, `claude-science update --to` doesn't change the app, so you can't roll the app back this way. `claude-science update --to <build>` installs one specific build. `<build>` is an 8-character build ID such as `3f9a01bc`, not a version number. `claude-science update --check` prints the ID of the installed build as `Current`.

33Claude Science checks for updates in the background and shows **Update available** when one is ready. Note the `Current` ID before you choose **Restart to update**, so you know which build to go back to.

3535If a newer build has already changed how your data directory stores sessions, the command refuses an older build and installs nothing, because an older build can permanently lose part of every session it writes to. The refusal names a flag that overrides it, `--accept-layout-downgrade`, and says when that is safe. If you cannot tell from the message whether it is safe for you, do not add the flag.
