Tools

Command-line tools included with the Voyager SDK. Use these to run inference, compile and deploy models, benchmark hardware, and manage devices.

Tool	What it does
install.sh	SDK installer. Sets up the Python virtual environment and downloads model dependencies. Run this first.
axdevice	List connected Metis devices, show firmware versions, and manage device configuration.
inference.py	Run any model on Metis hardware. The primary everyday tool for inference, display, and benchmarking.
deploy.py	Compile and deploy a model from a YAML definition. Used for custom weights and new architectures.
axrunmodel	Run a compiled model directly against the AIPU to measure peak hardware throughput. Advanced benchmarking.
