Migration Guide (to AKIOS V1.0)

Move from earlier releases to the V1.0 hybrid distribution (pip or Docker).

Quick checklist

  • Back up .env and config.yaml.
  • Choose pip (Linux security-max) or Docker wrapper (cross-platform).
  • Update scripts to use the chosen installer.
  • Run akios status and a sample workflow; verify audit output.

Pip path (recommended)

pip install --upgrade akios
akios --version
akios run templates/hello-workflow.yml

Docker wrapper path

curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/akios-ai/akios/main/akios
chmod +x akios
./akios run templates/hello-workflow.yml

Direct Docker (fallback/CI)

docker run --rm -v "$(pwd):/app" -w /app akiosai/akios:v1.0.0 run templates/hello-workflow.yml

Verify after migrating

  • akios status --security
  • akios audit verify
  • Run a workflow with mock and with --real-api to confirm keys and budgets.

Compatibility notes

  • Workflows remain compatible; validation is stricter (clear errors).
  • Docker on macOS/Windows stays policy-based; Linux pip gives full kernel-hard mode.
  • Keep audit enabled; configs are immutable at runtime.
