FYI #atproto: To use this new goat tool on the PDS server, create a shell alias like this: $ alias goat="docker exec -it pds goat" $ goat --version goat version v0.1.2-rev-c43d54a $ goat account --help NAME: goat account - commands for auth session and account management [...]

despite my stated desire to never ever touch production code, I am pleased to say that our AT CLI tool, goat github.com/bluesky-soci..., is now included in our PDS docker image github.com/bluesky-soci... as of about an hour ago. and I wrote new prod hosting recs to match! atproto.com/guides/going...

If this does not work, your PDS maybe outdated. To force an update: $ docker pull ghcr.io/bluesky-social/pds:0.4 $ systemctl restart pds.service Check with: $ curl -s localhost:3000/xrpc/_health {"version":"0.4.193"} Don't update with pdsadmin, it will revert possible changes to files /pds

to be honest, I would expect people to just install goat locally wherever else they need to use it: github.com/bluesky-soci... go apps are super portable, including it in the image was specifically requested by people who wanted to do pdsadmin-style management from within a container deployment
