    The `prepublishOnly` hook will automatically sync the template from the main project before publishing.
 
-## Template Updates
+## Maintainer Guide: Updating & Publishing
 
-### Automatic Sync (Recommended)
+This section is for maintainers who need to update the npm package after making changes to the main project.
+
+### Complete Publishing Workflow
+
+Follow these steps **every time** you make changes to the main project and want to publish them:
+
+#### Step 1: Make Changes to Main Project
+
+Edit any files in the main project (outside of `create-agentic-app/` folder):
+- `src/` components and pages
+- `docker-compose.yml`
+- `package.json`
+- Configuration files
+- etc.
+
+#### Step 2: Navigate to create-agentic-app Directory
 
-When publishing, the template syncs automatically via the `prepublishOnly` hook. Just run:
 ```bash
 cd create-agentic-app
-npm publish
 ```
 
-### Manual Sync
+#### Step 3: Sync Template from Main Project
 
-If you want to sync without publishing:
+This copies all your changes from the main project into the template folder:
 
-**From the project root:**
-```bash
-npm run sync-template
-```
-
-**Or from the create-agentic-app directory:**
 ```bash
 npm run sync
 ```
 
-The sync script automatically:
+**What this does:**
-- Copies all files from the main project to `template/`
+- Deletes everything in `create-agentic-app/template/`
-- Excludes build artifacts (node_modules, .next, lock files, etc.)
+- Copies ALL files from your main project into `template/`
-- Removes `"private": true` from template's package.json
+- Excludes: `node_modules`, `.next`, `.git`, lock files, `.env`, and the `create-agentic-app` folder itself
-- Removes the `sync-template` script (users don't need it)
+- Cleans up the template's `package.json` (removes `private` field and `sync-template` script)
 
-### Publishing Workflow
+#### Step 4: Bump the Version
 
-1. **Make changes** to the main boilerplate project
+Update the version number in `create-agentic-app/package.json`:
-2. **Test your changes**
+
-3. **Bump version** in `create-agentic-app/package.json`
+**Option A - Using npm version command (recommended):**
-4. **Publish**:
+```bash
-   ```bash
+npm version patch   # 1.1.3 → 1.1.4 (bug fixes)
-   cd create-agentic-app
+# or
-   npm publish
+npm version minor   # 1.1.3 → 1.2.0 (new features)
-   ```
+# or
-   (Template syncs automatically before publishing)
+npm version major   # 1.1.3 → 2.0.0 (breaking changes)
+```
+
+**Option B - Manual:**
+Edit `create-agentic-app/package.json` and change the version number.
+
+#### Step 5: Verify Everything Looks Good (Optional)
+
+Quick check to make sure your changes are in the package:
+
+```bash
+npm pack --dry-run | grep "template/"
+```
+
+This shows all files that will be published. Look for your changed files.
+
+#### Step 6: Publish to npm
+
+```bash
+npm publish
+```
+
+**What happens:**
+- The `prepublishOnly` hook automatically runs `npm run sync` again (safety check)
+- Your package gets published to npm with the new version
+
+#### Step 7: Test It
+
+In a different directory, test that it works:
+
+```bash
+cd /path/to/test-directory
+npx create-agentic-app@latest test-project
+# or use the specific version
+npx create-agentic-app@1.1.4 test-project
+```
+
+### Quick Reference Commands
+
+```bash
+# Complete workflow in 4 commands:
+cd create-agentic-app
+npm run sync
+npm version patch
+npm publish
+```
+
+### Common Scenarios
+
+**Scenario 1: You edited `docker-compose.yml` in the main project**
+```bash
+cd create-agentic-app
+npm run sync                    # Copies docker-compose.yml to template/
+npm version patch               # Bumps to next version
+npm publish                     # Publishes to npm
+```
+
+**Scenario 2: You added a new component in `src/components/`**
+```bash
+cd create-agentic-app
+npm run sync                    # Copies new component to template/
+npm version patch               # Bumps version
+npm publish                     # Publishes
+```
+
+**Scenario 3: You updated multiple files**
+```bash
+cd create-agentic-app
+npm run sync                    # Copies ALL changes to template/
+npm version patch               # Bumps version
+npm publish                     # Publishes
+```
+
+### What Gets Excluded from the Template
+
+The sync script excludes these patterns (see `scripts/sync-templates.js`):
+- `node_modules`
+- `.next`
+- `.git`
+- `pnpm-lock.yaml`
+- `package-lock.json`
+- `yarn.lock`
+- `tsconfig.tsbuildinfo`
+- `.env`
+- `create-agentic-app` (the folder itself)
+
+### Troubleshooting
+
+**Issue: npmjs.com shows old version after publishing**
+- The npm website can take 5-10 minutes to update due to CDN caching
+- Verify actual registry: `npm view create-agentic-app version`
+- The package is available to users immediately via `npx` even if the website hasn't updated
+
+**Issue: Users getting old version with `npx`**
+- Users may have cached versions. Tell them to:
+  ```bash
+  npx clear-npx-cache
+  npx create-agentic-app@latest my-project
+  # or use specific version
+  npx create-agentic-app@1.1.4 my-project
+  ```
+
+**Issue: Forgot to run sync before publishing**
+- No problem! The `prepublishOnly` hook runs it automatically
+- But it's good practice to run manually first to verify changes
