 ## Troubleshooting
 
-### Homebrew: Binary Already Exists Error
+### Homebrew: migrating from the third-party tap to homebrew-core
+
+The stable `hookdeck` formula now lives in [homebrew-core](https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/blob/HEAD/Formula/h/hookdeck.rb). The third-party `hookdeck/hookdeck` tap publishes only the beta formula.
 
-If you previously installed Hookdeck via the Homebrew formula and are upgrading to the cask version, you may see:
+If you installed via the tap, the move is automatic: `brew update && brew upgrade` will pull the next stable version from homebrew-core. No action needed.
 
+If you want to switch immediately:

+```sh
+brew update
+brew upgrade hookdeck
 ```
-Warning: It seems there is already a Binary at '/opt/homebrew/bin/hookdeck'
-from formula hookdeck; skipping link.
+
+### Homebrew: `hookdeck` and `hookdeck-beta` conflict on link
+
+Both formulae install a binary called `hookdeck`, so only one can be linked at a time. Switching between them requires `--overwrite`:
+
+```sh
+# Switch from beta to stable
+brew link --overwrite hookdeck
+
+# Switch from stable to beta
+brew link --overwrite hookdeck-beta
 ```
 
-To resolve this, uninstall the old formula version first, then install the cask:
+### Homebrew: beta install asks for a `brew trust` step
+
+Once [`HOMEBREW_REQUIRE_TAP_TRUST`](https://docs.brew.sh/Taps) becomes the default in Homebrew 5.2.0 / 6.0.0, installing the beta from the third-party tap requires:
 
 ```sh
-brew uninstall hookdeck
-brew install --cask hookdeck/hookdeck/hookdeck
+brew trust --formula hookdeck/hookdeck/hookdeck-beta
 ```
 
+The stable formula lives in homebrew-core and is unaffected.
