Package management

sudo apt update manages your package lists

The sudo apt update command refreshes your local package database without installing anything, and the agent shows the real output so you can verify the list. This works. Version 2.9.22 handles this process safely for your system updates. This step is essential before you perform any upgrade task.

01

Simulate an upgrade with the apt get command

The Shell tool runs apt-get -s upgrade to simulate package changes, and the write_file tool saves your important notes to disk for later review on Windows 11. Check first. The read_file tool displays the content that you previously saved to disk. This approach keeps your important data safe on your own Linux machine. You can verify the exact output of the simulation before confirming changes. The agent helps you manage your package list with care today.

Tool trace
Shell apt-get -s upgrade → exit 0
Shell apt list --upgradable → 5 matches
write_file plan.txt → saved
02

Add wget to your Linux system

Unrive Desk version 2.9.22 uses the Shell tool to execute the sudo apt install command for wget on your Linux machine, and it verifies the exit code to confirm success. Ask first pauses. The agent uses write_file to save the command history for your records. You approve the change in Ask first mode before the install command runs. wget --version shows the installed version number after the agent completes the task. The Cron tool can schedule this prompt to run on a set schedule.

Tool trace
Shell sudo apt install wget → exit 0
Shell wget --version → exit 0
read_file history.log → 1 line
03

Rename a file with the tool

The Shell tool runs the mv command on your Linux machine to rename the configuration file, and copy_file creates a backup in the chat's working folder first to ensure data safety. Verify the result. read_file confirms the new name and lists the directory contents clearly. grep searches the updated content for specific patterns in the logs. edit_file applies further changes to the text structure carefully by showing a diff. delete_file removes the old copy safely after verification is complete for Unrive Desk 2.9.22.

Tool trace
Shell ls config.d → 3 files
Shell mv old.conf new.conf → exit 0
Shell ls config.d → 3 files
04

List installed packages with apt list --installed

Unrive Desk version 2.9.22 runs on Windows 10/11 and uses the Shell tool to execute apt list --installed, then saves output with write_file for review so you can verify results. Read the list. Ask first mode pauses before saving the detailed audit data for your review. Failing my first apt update often happens when sudo permissions are missing on your system. Use read_file to view the saved audit data and verify the results. Check the count of installed packages carefully to ensure accuracy.

Tool trace
Shell apt list --installed → 150 lines
write_file packages.txt → saved
read_file packages.txt → 150 lines
