Minimus Unveils New Supply Chain Protection Proxy and Command-Line Interface for Container Management

In tandem, Minimus has launched minicli, a public command-line tool downloadable for macOS and Linux (AMD and ARM). The utility allows developers to inspect custom image structures—including internal file bundles and environment variables—and manage private images directly from the terminal. By converting image recipes into YAML files, teams can easily integrate change controls and automation into their existing technology stacks.

Together with Minimus Images, which eliminate up to 98% of standard container base image vulnerabilities, these updates offer an end-to-end strategy for securing both OS packages and application dependencies.
