FAQ
Do I need the .NET runtime?
Only for the dotnet tool install — the Linux, macOS, and Windows binaries are self-contained and need nothing else.
Is the CLI open source?
Yes, MIT-licensed. Source on GitHub.
Does the CLI cost extra?
No — it uses your existing SteadyCron account and plan, including the free tier.
