cronix

cronix version

version prints build identification — the cronix release version, the commit it was built from, the build timestamp, the Go runtime version, and the target OS/architecture. There are no flags and no positional arguments.

Use it as the first sanity check on any host: cronix version confirms the binary on $PATH is the one you expect, on the architecture you expect, before you start reconciling against real backends.

Synopsis

cronix version

Flags

None.

Example

Terminal window
cronix version
# cronix v0.6.0
#   commit: be7ed23f8a4c
#   built:  2026-05-04T14:22:09Z
#   go:     go1.23.4
#   target: linux/amd64

Notes

  • version, commit, and built are baked at build time by the release tooling (-ldflags "-X ..."). A binary built outside that pipeline reports dev / none / unknown for those fields — visible at a glance.
  • target reports the binary’s compile target, not the running host. They are usually the same; if they aren’t, you have a binary running under translation (Rosetta, qemu) and that’s worth knowing before reconciling production schedules.
  • For runtime ownership and per-host status, see cronix global-status.
