bnerd CLI¶

The command-line client for CloudAPI.

bnerd lets you manage your entire cloud infrastructure from the terminal — DNS zones and records, domain verification, Kubernetes clusters, compute resources, networking, billing, and WireGuard VPN connectivity.

Key Features¶

Full CLI + Interactive TUI

Use traditional commands for scripting or launch the interactive terminal UI with bnerd x for visual resource management.
DNS & Domain Management

Create and manage DNS zones, records (A, AAAA, CNAME, MX, TXT, SRV), and domain ownership verification.
Kubernetes & Compute

Manage Kubernetes clusters, servers, volumes, networks, routers, and load balancers.
WireGuard VPN

Built-in VPN client with automatic key generation, multi-connection support, and kernel/userspace fallback.
AI Assistant

Integrated AI chat and code assistant with safety modes, supporting Anthropic and OpenAI-compatible backends.
MCP Server

Run as a Model Context Protocol server for AI-powered cloud management from Claude Desktop and other MCP clients.
Billing & Cost Management

View billing overviews, project-level costs, detailed resource breakdowns, and current pricing.
