kuke version

Print client and daemon version strings; warn on mismatch.

kuke version [--no-daemon] [--strict]

Output

By default, kuke version prints the client version, then queries the daemon for its version and prints that on a second line. If the two strings differ, a warning is emitted on stderr; with --strict, the command also exits non-zero.

$ kuke version
Client: v0.6.0
Daemon: v0.6.0

When the daemon is unreachable (socket missing, daemon down), the second line is replaced by a Warning: daemon unreachable: <err> on stderr; the client-version stdout line still prints and the exit code stays 0. Use --no-daemon to skip the daemon query entirely.

$ kuke version
Client: v0.6.0
Warning: daemon unreachable: dial unix:///run/kukeon/kukeond.sock: connect: no such file or directory

$ kuke version --no-daemon
Client: v0.6.0

For release builds, the version string is the semver tag. For dev builds, it's whatever VERSION was passed at build time (often v0.0.0-dev or empty).

Flags

Flag	Default	Description
--no-daemon	false	Skip the daemon query — print only Client: <ver>
--strict	false	Exit with non-zero status on a client/daemon version mismatch (the warning on stderr is emitted in both modes)

Plus all global flags.

Daemon mismatch behavior

Warning: version mismatch (client: <c>, daemon: <d>) is emitted on stderr whenever the two version strings differ. Without --strict, the exit code stays 0 (informational warning); with --strict, the exit code is non-zero. Pair --strict with CI guards on host-upgrade workflows where the operator wants a hard fail if kuke and kukeond drift.
