Runpod CLI for managing GPU/CPU workloads from the terminal — pods, serverless endpoints, templates, network volumes, Hub deploys, models, SSH, and file transfer (send/receive). Use for terminal/CI/scripting, SSH setup, `doctor`, or when the Runpod MCP tools are not connected; prefer runpod-mcp for structured tool calls in an MCP-enabled session.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Runpodctl Manage GPU pods, serverless endpoints, templates, volumes, and models. ## Install `curl -sSL https://cli.runpod.net | bash` (Linux/macOS, and Windows via WSL) or `brew install runpod/runpodctl/runpodctl`. Manual binaries and the Windows and conda steps live in the [runpodctl README](https://github.com/runpod/runpodctl#install), beside the `install.sh` they describe. The command surface comes from the binary — `runpodctl <resource> <action> --help` — or the generated pages under [`runpodctl/docs/`](https://github.com/runpod/runpodctl/tree/main/docs). > Old runpodctl builds silently lack newer flags/behaviors (e.g. `--model-reference` doesn't > exist before v2.4.0) and produce confusing downstream errors — and the Homebrew tap can lag > well behind. So, before any work: > > - **Update to the latest build** — check `runpodctl version`, then run `runpodctl update` > (or reinstall from the [latest release](https://github.com/runpod/runpodctl/releases)). > - **Pin to one recent version for the whole task.** > - **Never switch between an old and a new binary mid-task** (that flip-flop is a known failure). …

How to install
mdr add runpod/runpod-plugins-official/runpodctl@sha256:1900ea31acc22c9aThe line at the top of this page pins the label "1.8.0" # x-release-please-version, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
