podmakerctl — the CLI

Plan, deploy and operate your whole fleet from one command.

podmakerctl (alias pdctl) is the single binary that turns intent into infrastructure. Interview-driven plan generation, declarative apply, signed multi-cluster bundles, and full Kubernetes, migration and provider lifecycle — without leaving the terminal.

How it works

  1. 01 Run pdctl plan generate and answer a short interview; it emits a topology plan in three cost archetypes (ECONOMY, BALANCED, PERFORMANCE).
  2. 02 Validate, estimate cost, diff against Git refs, and customise the plan — optionally with AI assistance.
  3. 03 pdctl plan apply pushes the plan to the control plane; watch the rollout stream live over SSE.
  4. 04 Publish a signed, hash-manifested bundle and replay or verify it on any cluster.
