Buildkite CLI

The Buildkite CLI (bk) provides terminal access to builds, jobs, pipelines, secrets, artifacts, clusters, queues, and packages. Use it to trigger builds, tail logs, manage secrets, run a local agent, and automate CI/CD workflows without leaving the command line.

Tip: This skill covers common commands and patterns. For complete flag details on any command, run bk <command> --help. The CLI ships exhaustive examples in its own help output — prefer it as the source of truth for a specific flag.

Quick Start

bk job list --build requires Buildkite CLI v3.53.0 or later. Run bk update if the flag is unavailable.

# Install
brew install buildkite/buildkite/bk
