Will FW update 5.13.7 break my jailbreak???

Hi, and since I didn't find any informations about how a jailbroken PW4 will work on 5.13.7, so I'm wondering if I will lost my jailbreak even if I have installed the latest hotfix after updating to it. If I am able to keep jailbroken, then how will the ;commands work? Are they still avaliable? I'm concerned because Amazon changed the UI and they might have also changed the commands.
I'm wanting the new UI but now I don't want to take risk updating, so if there are somebody can tell me whether I should update if I want to keep jailbroken, thank you so much.

There is currently no way to jailbreak a 5.13.7 PW4, and I did the jailbreaking the time I bought it when it was running FW 5.12.4.

If you want to keep your device jailbroken after 5.13.7 update, just update the hotfix and then do the FW update by copying FW file into your kindle and update.
