v0.27.1Auto-Updater & Daemon Process Upgrade

  • Fixed: Environment inheritance during background auto-update — cleaned inherited npm_config_* and npm_* environment variables when spawning npm install -g kandown in checkForUpdate(). Previously, if Kandown was run via npx or npm run, inherited local prefix overrides could cause global background updates to fail or target a temporary cache.
  • Fixed: Binary path resolution for system PATH and ~/.local/bin — updated resolveKandownBin() to check which kandown, command -v kandown, and ~/.local/bin/kandown before checking package manager prefixes, ensuring custom global PATH installations are detected accurately.
  • Fixed: Live daemon process upgrade on CLI update — updated refreshRunningProjectHtml() so that background project daemon processes in RAM running older code are automatically stopped and relaunched with the newly updated CLI binary.
