AKIOS — Blog

AKIOS v1.0.5 brings a rich terminal UI, environment auto-detection, full accessibility support, and a critical fix for the SIGTRAP crash when running with sudo.

What's Changed: v1.0 → v1.0.5

Area	v1.0	v1.0.5
Terminal UI	Plain text output	Rich semantic colors, structured dashboards, status badges
Environment	Manual configuration	Auto-detection: Docker, K8s, Podman, CI/CD (< 5ms)
Accessibility	Basic	7 themes, 4 colorblind modes, 3 symbol modes, NO_COLOR
Diagnostics	Manual checks	`akios doctor` — automated system diagnostics
Compliance	Manual reports	`akios compliance report` — basic, detailed, executive
sudo Execution	🐛 SIGTRAP crash	✅ Fixed — seccomp filter updated for privileged syscalls
PII Config	On/off toggle	`pii_redaction_outputs` + `pii_redaction_aggressive`
Token Default	1000 max per call	500 max per call (cost safety)

What's New

🎨 Rich Terminal UI

The CLI now uses semantic colors and structured output. Status dashboards, security reports, and workflow results are clearer and easier to scan. Powered by Rich, with full fallback for plain terminals.

🔍 Environment Auto-Detection

AKIOS now automatically detects its runtime environment at startup (< 5ms):

graph LR
    Start["akios run"] --> Detect["Environment\nDetection (< 5ms)"]

    Detect --> Container{"Container?"}
    Container -->|Docker| Docker["Docker Mode\ncontainer isolation"]
    Container -->|K8s| K8s["Kubernetes Mode\npod isolation"]
    Container -->|Podman| Podman["Podman Mode\nrootless"]
    Container -->|None| Native["Native Mode\nseccomp + cgroups"]

    CI -->|None| TTY["TTY Detection\nrich output"]

    Detect --> Term{"Terminal?"}
    Term --> Unicode["Unicode/ASCII\nsymbol mode"]
    Term --> Color["Color Depth\ntheme selection"]

Container type: native, Docker, Kubernetes, Podman
CI/CD: GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Jenkins
Terminal capabilities: Unicode support, color depth, TTY

The runtime adjusts symbol modes, colors, and output format automatically. No configuration needed.

akios output — Manage workflow outputs (list, clean, archive)

🐛 Critical Bug Fix: SIGTRAP Crash

Fixed a crash when running sudo akios run on Linux. The seccomp BPF filter was rejecting essential syscalls during privileged execution. The fix updates the syscall allowlist for the CAP_SYS_ADMIN context. Upgrade immediately if you use sudo:

sudo pip3 install --upgrade akios

Upgrade

# Pip
pip install akios==1.0.5

# Docker
docker pull akiosai/akios:v1.0.5

# Verify
akios --version
# akios 1.0.5
