MicroVM Management System

Rust-based Firecracker management for operating isolated Linux workloads. Fast provisioning and repeatable deployment workflows for microVM-backed services.

Highlights

  • Consistent CLI vocabulary across lanes — port doctor, port cluster, port machine, port guest, and port service work the same whether running locally or against a hosted control plane.
  • Default local lane: Firecracker — microVM-backed Linux workloads with standard protection; also supports Cloud Hypervisor, Apple Virtualization Framework (AVF), and prepared-node Firecracker/PVM.
  • Local K3s cluster lifecycle — port cluster up|status|kubeconfig|down provisions a named local K3s cluster and hands off a ready kubeconfig for downstream GitOps.
  • SSH-managed remote lane — bounded Linux lifecycle (machine launch, status, stop) over SSH with explicit route and ownership output, no agent required.
  • Attached volume support — persistent host-file volumes on the local Firecracker lane with explicit host path and ownership output.
  • Hosted lane — same machine, guest, and service verbs against a hosted control plane and node agent, keeping operator vocabulary identical across environments.
