# Version 0.13.0

> March 20, 2026

> Historical note: `boxes connect` was a temporary migration seam. Current open-source Lager no longer exposes that command; downstream control planes own box install/bootstrap.

## <u>Features</u>

* `--force-command` flag is now available on all subcommands that target a Lager Box (not just as a global flag). Place it anywhere after the subcommand name: `lager python script.py --box lab-box --force-command`
* `--force-command` added to `hello`, `install`, `uninstall`, and the historical `boxes connect` command

## <u>Improvements</u>

* `lager python --detach` now keeps the command lock until the detached process finishes on the Lager Box, preventing others from accidentally interfering with running scripts. The lock is automatically released when the script completes
* All commands that acquire locks now automatically support `--force-command` via shared decorator

## <u>Bug Fixes</u>

* Updated locking documentation to reflect current behavior (detach keeps lock, local flag syntax, correct `lager boxes` output format)

## <u>Installation</u>

To install this version:

```bash theme={null}
pip install lager-cli==0.13.0
```

To upgrade from a previous version:

```bash theme={null}
pip install --upgrade lager-cli
```
