Überblick
CLI tool to nuke (delete) cloud resources
Verlauf
cloud-nuke is Gruntwork's destructive cleanup CLI for deleting cloud resources, mainly used around test accounts, ephemeral infrastructure, and default AWS resource cleanup. Its history is source-backed enough to treat it as a real package-manager tool rather than just a GitHub utility.
The gruntwork-io/cloud-nuke repository was created in 2017 and is maintained by Gruntwork. The README frames the tool as a way to remove leftover resources, clean test accounts, and delete defaults such as default VPCs and permissive security group rules.
The tool evolved from AWS-focused cleanup into a CLI with inspect, dry-run, filtering, config-file, and GCP commands. The README also documents telemetry added as of v0.29.0, showing a maintained packaged CLI rather than a one-off script.
Official installation docs point users to GitHub release binaries and explicitly list Homebrew for macOS and Linux plus winget for Windows. The input package-manager facts also record Nix, Scoop, and winget identifiers, so adoption is package-manager centric even though upstream cautions that package-manager builds may lag releases.
The CLI is significant in infrastructure shops because it turns account cleanup into a repeatable command with filters, dry-run, region selection, resource-type selection, and config-driven targeting.
Common use is `cloud-nuke aws` for deletion, `cloud-nuke inspect-aws` for inspection, `cloud-nuke defaults-aws` for default VPC and security group cleanup, and `cloud-nuke gcp` for GCP deletion. The official docs emphasize dry-run and filtering because the default delete path is intentionally dangerous.
Credentials come from standard AWS CLI credential mechanisms for AWS usage, and the tool accepts command flags plus an optional user-supplied config file path for granular filtering.
cloud-nuke is a good example of a high-blast-radius CLI where package freshness, binary provenance, and default behavior matter. Upstream warns users to compare package-manager versions with GitHub releases.
For Homebrew and cross-platform package indexes, it is notable because it packages operational cloud deletion behavior as a one-command executable rather than a library.
