Installation

Installation

flareover ships as a single, statically-linked binary with zero external runtime dependencies. Pick whichever install path fits your platform.

Homebrew (macOS / Linux)

brew install fabriziosalmi/flareover/flareover

Verified install script (Linux / macOS)

Downloads the release for your OS/arch and checks its sha256 before installing:

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/fabriziosalmi/flareover/main/install.sh | sh

From source

go install github.com/fabriziosalmi/flareover/cmd/flareover@latest

Building from source requires Go 1.25+. The engine is pure Go, standard library only — no go.sum full of third-party modules to vet.

Release binaries

Every release ships prebuilt binaries for linux / macOS / windows on amd64 / arm64, each with:

• an SBOM (*.sbom.json), and
• a checksums.txt signed keyless via Sigstore/cosign.

Verify a download against the signed checksums (the exact command is printed in each release's notes), then check the binary:

flareover version

Verifying the signature

# from a release directory containing checksums.txt(.pem/.sig)
cosign verify-blob \
  --certificate checksums.txt.pem \
  --signature   checksums.txt.sig \
  --certificate-identity-regexp 'https://github.com/fabriziosalmi/flareover' \
  --certificate-oidc-issuer https://token.actions.githubusercontent.com \
  checksums.txt
sha256sum -c checksums.txt --ignore-missing

Credentials come from the environment

flareover never takes secrets on the command line — every token is read from an environment variable, so nothing leaks via ps, /proc, or shell history. You'll set these as you go (see Security for the full list); the first one you need is the read-only zone token:

export CLOUDFLARE_API_TOKEN=…   # read-only, for `extract`
