----------------------------------------

Hi Ivan, glad you're ready with this! 

Let's get these questions answered:

1) To show a confirmation dialog/question in Forge UI/Shell, you need to use the {{UIPrompt}} object, supplied by the {{UIExecutionContext}}. 
The code should be similar to this: 
{code}
public class MyCommand implements UICommand {
...
    public Result execute(UIExecutionContext context) throws Exception {
         UIPrompt prompt = context.getPrompt();
         boolean answer = prompt.promptBoolean("Do you want to continue?");
         return Results.success("You answered: "+answer);
    }
}
{code}

2) I think it would be better to have that in a command, since users can ask for update anytime inside the Forge shell (and not only during boot, if the code were in Bootstrap)
3) To test this, I'd recommend to use a controlled Maven environment, like we do in https://github.com/forge/furnace/blob/master/manager/tests/src/test/java/org/jboss/forge/furnace/manager/impl/AddonManagerRepositoryTest.java. 

Let me know if you need anything else.

Best Regards,

George Gastaldi
