What's the correct process for updating both MacOS and OCLP?

I've got a MacBook Air 2017 with Ventura 13.6.4 on it. It's pretty out of date for MacOS. It's also got an older version of OCLP on it (1.3.0). For some reason, it thinks I need to repatch, even though I haven't touched an OS upgrade for at least 6 months. So everything is a little slow responding in the UI, but it works. I actually did try the patch once, but that caused it to not start up. I followed the instructions found here to get it back to where it was so it would at least start up.

So, I'm wondering what's the correct order for updating this machine? OCLP first, then MacOS update? other way around? Something else? I don't want to have to keep going into Terminal to fix it.

Thanks!
