 This command is useful for troubleshooting when you encounter issues with Aspire or when setting up a new development environment. The checks are grouped by category:
 
+- **Aspire checks**: Reports the current Aspire CLI version, whether a newer CLI version is available (and suggests `aspire update` when one is), and the AppHost Aspire SDK version when an AppHost project is present in the current directory
 - **SDK checks**: Verifies .NET SDK installation and version requirements
 - **Container checks**: Validates container runtime (Docker and/or Podman) availability, running status, and version. Reports which runtime is active and why (explicit configuration, auto-detected default, or auto-detected only runtime running)
 - **Environment checks**: Validates environment variables and other settings, including the JavaScript toolchain required by TypeScript AppHosts (npm, pnpm, Yarn, or Bun)
