As c8ctl is still marked as alpha in the docs, I created c8volt as a complementary ops-focused tool for Camunda 8, not just a thin API layer, but a CLI for complete operational workflows: inspect, plan, execute, wait, verify, and report. If you’re interested, have a look here: https://c8volt.info

Love this @Adam_Boczek. This is great! It has some superb affordances for production / development workload management.

Would you consider shipping a volt plugin for c8ctl? That would give your ideas another route to market. The plugin architecture uses TypeScript, which gets rid of the cross-platform piece, and is easily composable.

Thanks @jwulf, appreciate that.

I think a c8ctl plugin could be an interesting route, especially as another way for people to discover and try some of the c8volt ideas from inside the Camunda CLI ecosystem.

At the same time, I’d like to keep c8volt independent for now. A lot of the value is in the ops/runbook model around dry-runs, verification, reporting, and repeatable operational workflows, so I’d want to be careful not to collapse that into just a plugin surface too early.

But yes, definitely open to exploring what a lightweight integration could look like.
