Build Variants

1. Standard CLI (CGO Enabled)

• Build Type: Native
• CGO: Enabled
• Use Case: Recommended for most Linux distributions like Ubuntu, Fedora, Arch, Debian, etc.
• Pros: Better integration with system libraries and potentially faster execution.
• Note: Requires a working glibc setup and basic dev environment.

2. Portable CLI (CGO Disabled)

• Build Type: Fully Static
• CGO: Disabled
• Use Case: Ideal for minimal environments such as NixOS, Alpine Linux, or containers without a C toolchain.
• Pros: Higher portability, no system dependencies.
• Note: Some system integrations may not work if CGO features are required.
