Changelog2026-09-30New

The new nodus CLI

nodus 1.0 is a new command line built on the Kubernetes API model. The same verbs work for every resource: get, describe, apply, diff, edit, delete, logs, exec, attach, cp, port-forward, wait, explain and more, with -o json|yaml|jsonpath|custom-columns, label and field selectors and -w.

• Sign in once per machine. nodus login confirms in the browser and stores one key per org in the OS keychain; --device works over SSH and --with-token in CI. Contexts live in ~/.nodus/config, which is also a kubeconfig, so kubectl get jobs.nodus.dev works.
• nodus run uploads the current directory, shows the estimate before anything is charged, prints each phase, streams your program’s output and ends with the cost itemized by segment. It exits with your command’s exit code; -d detaches and Ctrl+C asks before canceling.
• Billing from the terminal. nodus billing shows the balance, billing top-up 50 opens checkout, and billing usage --group-by day -o csv exports usage.
• Signed releases for macOS, Linux and Windows on x86-64 and ARM64, through pip, Homebrew and the install script, each with checksums, an SBOM and a cosign signature.

See Install the CLI and Nodus for kubectl users. If you used the 0.x CLI, its ~/.nodus/config.toml is renamed to config.0x.bak on first run; sign in again with nodus login. NODUS_BASE_URL still works as an alias of NODUS_API_URL, with a warning. nodus convert nodus.toml turns a 0.x job file into a Job manifest (and nodus.training.json into a TrainingJob) and names every field that does not carry over; nodus init scaffolds a new manifest or app.py.
