Hub

Browse and search the Runpod Hub — a curated marketplace of deployable repos.

runpodctl hub list                                    # Top 10 by stars
runpodctl hub list --type SERVERLESS                  # Only serverless repos
runpodctl hub list --type POD                         # Only pod repos
runpodctl hub list --category ai --limit 20           # Filter by category
runpodctl hub list --order-by deploys                 # Order by deploys
runpodctl hub list --owner runpod-workers             # Filter by repo owner
runpodctl hub search vllm                             # Search for "vllm"
runpodctl hub search whisper --type SERVERLESS        # Search serverless repos
runpodctl hub get <listing-id>                        # Get by listing id
runpodctl hub get runpod-workers/worker-vllm          # Get by owner/name

List/search flags: --type (POD, SERVERLESS), --category, --order-by (stars, deploys, createdAt, updatedAt, releasedAt, views), --order-dir (asc, desc), --limit, --offset, --owner

Serverless (alias: sls)

runpodctl serverless list                             # List all endpoints
runpodctl serverless get <endpoint-id>                # Get endpoint details
runpodctl serverless create --name "x" --template-id "tpl_abc"  # Create from template
runpodctl serverless create --name "x" --hub-id <listing-id>    # Create from hub repo
runpodctl serverless create --hub-id <id> --env MODEL_NAME=my-model  # Override hub env defaults
runpodctl serverless update <endpoint-id> --workers-max 5       # Update endpoint
runpodctl serverless delete <endpoint-id>             # Delete endpoint

Create from hub: --hub-id resolves the hub listing, extracts the build image and config (GPU IDs, container disk, env vars), creates an inline template, and deploys. Accepts both SERVERLESS and POD listing types. GPU IDs and env var defaults from the hub config are included automatically; override with --gpu-id and --env.

List flags: --include-template, --include-workers Update flags: --name, --workers-min, --workers-max, --idle-timeout, --scaler-type (QUEUE_DELAY or REQUEST_COUNT), --scaler-value Create flags: --name, --template-id or --hub-id (one required), --gpu-id, --gpu-count, --compute-type, --workers-min, --workers-max, --network-volume-id, --data-center-ids, --env
