- Verify a package’s name, version, and apiVersion before installing.
- Inspect an unfamiliar or freshly pulled package’s manifest from the terminal.
What happens
- Reads
hull.yamlfrom<package-path>(a directory or a hull archive). - Prints it verbatim to stdout. No layer resolution, no value merging.

Worked example
INPUT — test/fixtures/simple/hull.yaml on disk:
apiVersion: hull/v1
name: simple-app
version: 1.0.0
OUTPUT (hull show chart test/fixtures/simple) — the same manifest, so you
read the package’s identity directly:
apiVersion: hull/v1
name: simple-app
version: 1.0.0
Pipe it through yq to pull a single field, for example
hull show chart test/fixtures/simple | yq '.version' prints 1.0.0.
