# Updates and troubleshooting

> How the HyperFrames Studio app updates itself, and what to do when it says your agent is signed out, out of usage, or blocked.

## How updates arrive

The app checks for a new version when it opens and every few minutes after that. When one is ready, you get a
notification, a round update button appears in the bottom-right corner, and Framey points at it: **There's a new
update. Click here**.

1. Click the update button. It fills up as the update downloads.
2. The app restarts by itself as soon as nothing is running: no agent run, export, or setup in progress. It reopens
   the project you had open, and you do not lose anything.

To check by hand, open **Settings** > **Updates** and choose **Check for updates**. On a Mac, **HyperFrames** >
**Check for Updates…** in the menu bar does the same. Some updates show a short video of what is new.

If an update says **The update is taking longer than it should** or **The update didn't finish**, click the update
button and choose **Try again** to cancel it and start a new one, or **Download it instead** to get the
latest version from the download page. **Download the latest version** in **Settings** > **Updates** also opens the
download page. If it says **Could not check for updates**, check
your internet connection, then try again.

## The app asks me to sign in to HyperFrames

Sending a request needs your HeyGen account. Choose **Continue with HeyGen** and finish in your browser within two
minutes. If you see **No connection**, check your internet. If you see **The sign-in expired** or **HeyGen didn't
sign you in**, choose **Try again**.

## You're signed out of Claude Code

The chat shows a sign-in card. Your message is kept. Choose **Sign in**, finish in your browser, and the message
sends as soon as you are back. Choose **Use Codex instead** to send it with Codex if Codex is ready.

For Codex, the chat says **Codex is not signed in**. Choose **Copy sign-in command**, run it in a terminal, then
choose **Try again**.

## My agent hit its usage limit

The chat says, for example, **Claude Code hit its usage limit. It resets** at a time. This is your agent's own plan
limit, not a HyperFrames one. Wait until it resets and choose **Try again**, or choose **Switch to Codex** (or
**Switch to Claude Code**) if the other agent is set up.

If the chat says the agent **had a problem on its side**, the agent's service is busy or down. Try again in a few
minutes.

## Claude Code blocked a step

**Agent access** in **Settings** > **Agent** decides what Claude Code may do:

* **Full access**, the default: it can install, use the internet, and run anything, with no checks.
* **Auto**: it works in your project and blocks risky steps on its own.

With **Auto**, a step Claude Code refuses shows as blocked in the run's work log. If the change needed that step,
switch to **Full access** and send the request again.

## The agent is not installed or won't start

The chat says Claude Code **is not installed**. Choose **Try again** and the app sets it up for you. If
Claude Code is installed but will not start, choose **Reinstall** in **Settings** > **Permissions**. See
[Connect your agent](/studio-app/connect-your-agent) for the manual commands.

## Other messages

| The chat says | Do this |
| - | - |
| **… ran out of room in this chat** | Choose **Start a fresh session**. |
| **… needs an update to use** a model | Choose the update button in the chat. |
| **… could not reach the internet** | Check your connection, then **Try again**. |
| **… could not finish this change** | Choose **Try again**, or say the change differently. |

## Where your work is kept

* **Your projects**: the hidden `.hyperframes-studio` folder in your home folder.
* **Exported videos**: your Downloads folder.
* **App settings and sign-in**: `Library/Application Support/HyperFrames` in your home folder on a Mac, and
  `.config/HyperFrames` in your home folder on Linux.

Each project is a plain HyperFrames project folder, so it also opens in the
[Studio web editor](/studio/index) and with the [command line](/developers/cli).
