Baseten CLI

CLI for the Baseten Inference Platform.

⚠️ Under active development. Nothing should be considered stable at this time.

Installation

Download the latest release for your platform, extract the archive, and place the baseten executable on your PATH.

Or install v0.1.0 with a one-liner:

Linux (x64)

curl -sL https://github.com/basetenlabs/baseten-cli/releases/download/v0.1.0/baseten_0.1.0_linux_amd64.tar.gz \
  | sudo tar xz -C /usr/local/bin baseten

macOS (arm64)

curl -sL https://github.com/basetenlabs/baseten-cli/releases/download/v0.1.0/baseten_0.1.0_darwin_arm64.tar.gz \
  | sudo tar xz -C /usr/local/bin baseten

Windows (x64)

PowerShell:

Invoke-WebRequest `
  https://github.com/basetenlabs/baseten-cli/releases/download/v0.1.0/baseten_0.1.0_windows_amd64.zip `
  -OutFile baseten.zip; Expand-Archive -Force baseten.zip .

Then move baseten.exe to a directory on your PATH.

Usage

Authenticate via baseten auth login, or set BASETEN_API_KEY in the environment.

Run baseten --help (or baseten <command> --help) for the full command tree.

Deploying Models

From inside a model directory containing a config.yaml:

baseten model push

The directory defaults to the current working directory and is configurable via --dir. Useful flags:

• --tail streams build and runtime logs to stderr after the push completes.
• --wait blocks until the deployment reaches an active status and exits non-zero on terminal failure.

Calling a Model

baseten model predict --model-id <model-id> --data '{"prompt":"hello"}'

--model-name is also accepted. Pass --file <path> (or --file - for stdin) to send a request body from a file.

Viewing Logs

baseten model deployment logs --model-id <model-id> --deployment-id <deployment-id> --tail

Omit --tail and pass --since 1h (or --start/--end) to fetch a historical window.

Run baseten --help for more, and see docs.baseten.co for general Baseten platform documentation.
