Released 27 July 2026. The archive carries arm64 and amd64 together and the installer picks one; a master below 0.0.22 must install fresh rather than upgrade.

Check it before you run it

Two different questions. The first catches a corrupted download; only the second catches a substituted one.

Check the bytes

Catches a corrupted or truncated download. Nothing more — anyone who could replace the archive could replace this file too.

sha256sum -c SHA256SUMS

→ buddy-cluster-0.0.23-linux.tar.gz: OK

Check the origin

Catches a substituted one. The signature covers the checksum file, which is what carries the archive's digest — so this is the step that makes step 1 mean something.

minisign -V -H -P RWTTJh2BW+8hBLngoPvw03saGyx+7Srvc/zkTAA8c7byt+0HvrQgsvqZ -m SHA256SUMS -x SHA256SUMS.minisig

→ Signature and comment signature verified

Both steps need these, beside the archive:SHA256SUMS SHA256SUMS.minisig

The public key is printed in full at the foot of this page and is compiled into every buddy-server. A cluster that checks for updates on its own verifies against that same key and refuses anything it cannot check — “couldn’t check” is never rendered as “up to date”.

Not distributed here yet

flashable image: The ready-to-flash Raspberry Pi image is planned for this site and not yet hosted — it is 1.3 GB and needs somewhere to live first. Until then, build it from the source tree with make image.
individual binaries: buddy-server and buddy-agent ship inside the archive above, one directory per architecture. They are listed separately once a release publishes them with measured digests of their own.

Earlier releases

0.0.23 is the first release distributed from this site. Earlier versions were tagged but never published as an artifact — the tag was the release. They are not reachable here, and this list will not pretend otherwise.
