Was able to reproduce this:

```
$ calkit upgrade
Resolved 198 packages in 1.49s
Audited 198 packages in 10ms
error: failed to remove directory `C:\Users\peteb\AppData\Roaming\uv\tools\calkit-python\Scripts`: Access is denied. (os error 5)
Error: Upgrade failed
```

This is probably because Calkit is running at the time of the upgrade, so the Scripts dir can't be replaced.
