Command lineGetting started

Installing

kcloud is the command line of Kikimora Cloud. It does from a terminal, a script or a CI pipeline the same work as the panel.

kcloud installs from npm and needs Node.js 22.22 or a later 22 release, or Node.js 24 or newer. Install it system-wide with npm install -g @kikimoradev/kcloud.

kcloud acts on https://cloud.kikimora.dev. Name another address with --url or the variable KIKIMORA_CLOUD_URL.

Step 1: Check the version

The version of kcloud follows the version of the platform. The command prints both and warns when they differ. Then update kcloud with the same npm install -g @kikimoradev/kcloud.

$ kcloud version

Output

WHAT                        VERSION
kcloud                      1.9.0
https://cloud.kikimora.dev  1.9.0

Each command takes --help, which describes its arguments, and the shared options: --json prints output for a program to read, --yes asks nothing, --org picks the organization and --url the address of the platform.
