swm

swm images

List Docker images discoverable for a provider, parsed live from the provider’s image registry. Useful for picking a tag with a specific CUDA toolkit or PyTorch version.

Subcommands

Section titled “Subcommands”
CommandDescription
images listList images for a provider, sorted newest-first

images list

Section titled “images list”
OptionDescription
-p, --providerProvider to query (default: runpod)
--cuda X.YFilter to images matching CUDA major.minor
--refreshBypass the local cache and re-query the registry
-n, --limitMax rows to show (default: 20)
--allShow every image

Examples

Section titled “Examples”
Terminal window
swm images list                            # all RunPod pytorch images
swm images list -p runpod --cuda 12.8      # only CUDA 12.8 images
swm images list -p runpod --cuda 11.8 -n 5 # top 5
swm images list --refresh                  # bypass cache

The output table shows Tag, CUDA, Torch, Ubuntu, and Updated columns. Pick a tag and pass it to swm pod create --image <tag>, or skip this step entirely and pass --cuda <X.Y> to pod create — swm will resolve to the newest matching tag automatically.

Provider coverage

Section titled “Provider coverage”

swm only resolves images for providers that publish a Docker Hub catalog (currently RunPod). For other providers, pass --image directly to swm pod create.
