The Ownkube CLI

okctl drives Ownkube from your terminal. Connect an AWS account, ship deployments, tail logs, and pull connection details without leaving your shell. It is scriptable and CI-friendly, and every read command speaks JSON.

Quick start

bash

# Log in via your browser
okctl login

# Connect an AWS account (opens the console to deploy a scoped role)
okctl aws connect

# Inspect and operate your deployments
okctl deploy list --cluster <cluster-id>
okctl deploy logs <deployment-id>

Add -o json to any read command for machine-readable output. Prefer autonomous onboarding? okctl aws connect --deploy creates the CloudFormation stack for you using the AWS credentials already in your shell. Ownkube never receives your AWS keys.
