This release builds on the v1.0.0 foundation with major additions across installation tooling, node operations, and observability.
Snapshot-based node bootstrapping
Nodes can now be deployed from a pre-downloaded chain snapshot rather than syncing from genesis. This significantly reduces time-to-live for new nodes on supported networks—from days to hours or minutes depending on chain and snapshot availability.
Integrated monitoring stack
The Control Panel now ships with an optional, fully integrated observability stack:
- VictoriaMetrics — metrics storage
- Grafana — dashboards
- Chainstack blockchain-node-exporter — surfaces chain-specific health signals alongside standard Kubernetes infrastructure metrics
The stack is enabled at install time and requires no additional configuration.
cpctl improvements
The cpctl CLI has been substantially extended:
- Interactive TUI shell —
cpctl now runs as a persistent interactive shell with streaming output, live status tables, progress bars, and health indicators.
- One-line install scripts — available for Linux, macOS, and Windows. Multi-platform binaries (amd64/arm64) are published and installable with a single command.
- Shell completion —
cpctl completion generates completion scripts for bash, zsh, fish, and PowerShell.
- Upgrade command —
cpctl upgrade handles in-place Control Panel upgrades with a plan preview, configuration diff, values backup, and an upgrade journal for auditability.
