The reseed decision in the update flow compares only the installed schema number (.framework-version) against FRAMEWORK_VERSION in the bundled framework/install.sh, and additionally reseeds when the update command itself installed a newer package.

Gap: when the package is updated externally (npm i -g directly, e.g. to a specific dist-tag) and the bundled FRAMEWORK_VERSION is unchanged, 'mosaic update' reports everything up to date and never reseeds. Framework tool content in ~/.config/mosaic then stays stale with no warning, even though the installed package bundles newer tools.

Measured: package updated externally to a build containing merged tool changes; both reseed conditions false (schema N == N, no package install performed by update); installed wrappers remained the pre-change versions until a manual MOSAIC_INSTALL_MODE=keep run of the bundled framework/install.sh.

Suggested fix direction: compare the bundled package version (or a content hash of the framework manifest) against what the last reseed recorded, not only the schema integer.
