after running codebase-memory-mcp upgrade, the upgrade goes through the motions and even downloads something. However, running "codebase-memory-mcp --version" afterwards shows that the version was stuck at 0.8.1.

I had to delete the executable manually and then run "Invoke-WebRequest -Uri https://raw.githubusercontent.com/DeusData/codebase-memory-mcp/main/install.ps1 -OutFile install.ps1" to finally upgrade it.

Reproduction

  1. run "codebase-memory-mcp upgrade" on a windows machine.
