# Lumi Updates
Lumi updates are managed from **Admin > Updates**. The page separates Core and
Plugins into expandable sections and uses repository metadata to choose a safe
target before any files are changed.
## Version Policy
Core and plugin versions use `major.minor.patch`.
- Patch: fixes only.
- Minor: non-breaking features or design changes.
- Major: potentially incompatible changes.
The UI tracks three values separately: current version, latest available
version, and safe target version. Same-major updates can target the latest
version. Major crossings are blocked unless metadata exposes a compatibility
bridge, usually `X.0.0`, or another version marked with
`migration_kind: "compatibility_bridge"` and compatible with the current
install.
If the latest version is unsafe, the UI shows the safe target as the actionable
version and lists why the absolute latest is not selected.
## Metadata
The updater looks for these files on the source branch:
- `update-manifest.json` or `lumi.manifest.json`
- `CHANGELOG.md` or `changelog.json`
- `plugins/<plugin_id>/plugin.json`
- `plugins/<plugin_id>/CHANGELOG.md` or `changelog.json`
Useful metadata fields include `version`, `channel`, `compatible_from`,
`migration_kind`, `migration_notes`, `rollback_safe`, `requirements`, `size`,
and changelog entries. Missing changelog data is shown as a warning.
Stable checks read `main` by default. The newest `experimental-*` branch is used
only when explicitly selected on the updates page.
## Snapshots And Revert
Before a core, plugin, repo, or ZIP update, Lumi creates a snapshot under
`data/snapshots/` and records metadata in the snapshot index:
- target kind/id
- from/to versions
- source branch
- update method
- rollback safety
- recovery marker id
- major-crossing flag
Manual revert is available for core and individual plugins. Revert actions are
limited to the previous-version snapshot for that target. Major-version rollback
is blocked unless the snapshot or manifest explicitly marks rollback as safe.
## ZIP Fallback
Core and plugin ZIP updates remain available, but they are hidden under
**Show advanced ZIP update options**. ZIP updates create snapshots and recovery
markers. They may bypass repo metadata and compatibility checks unless the ZIP
contains valid manifest data, so use them as a manual fallback.
## Progress Events
Admin update actions publish Server-Sent Events through
`GET /admin/updates/events`. Event names include `update:checking`,
`update:metadata`, `update:snapshot`, `update:recovery_marker`,
`update:download`, `update:apply`, `update:verify`, `update:complete`,
`update:failed`, and `update:revert`.
Core update success returns a five-second in-page notice before refresh/restart.
Plugin update success updates progress for the affected plugin action without a
whole-page refresh.
