Versions:
fleetctl 4.82.1, the current stable release from Fleet Device Management Inc., is a command-line interface that translates every Fleet device-management operation into terminal commands, eliminating the need to open the web UI or craft raw REST calls. Designed for IT administrators, security teams, and DevOps engineers who oversee large fleets of laptops, servers, and containers, the tool supports a full GitOps cycle: declarative YAML files that describe teams, policies, queries, and configuration profiles can be stored in version control, reviewed, and then applied in bulk with a single fleetctl command, ensuring repeatable, auditable, and rollback-friendly workflows. Typical use cases include enrolling thousands of hosts into Fleet, scheduling osquery-based vulnerability checks across heterogeneous environments, updating MDM profiles without manual clicks, and exporting compliance reports for SOC audits. Because fleetctl exposes the complete Fleet REST surface, it also lends itself to ad-hoc automation—one-off queries, live system-state inspection, or CI-driven tests that confirm a new security baseline before code is promoted. The binary is lightweight, statically linked, and available for Windows, macOS, and Linux, making it easy to embed in pipelines or run from jump hosts. With 48 published versions to date, the project maintains backward compatibility while incrementally adding resource types, improved error messages, and performance refinements. The software is available for free on get.nero.com, with downloads provided via trusted Windows package sources (e.g. winget), always delivering the latest version, and supporting batch installation of multiple applications.
