The Cloudsmith package repository stops serving on September 16, 2026. Any machine still pointed at the Cloudsmith URL will fail to install or update the Infisical CLI after that date. Follow the steps below to migrate now.
What changed
The Infisical CLI Linux package repository has moved from Cloudsmith to our own host at artifacts-cli.infisical.com (Amazon S3 served via CloudFront). All current and historical releases are available on the new host, so pinned version installs continue to resolve without changes to the version number.
Who is affected
Anyone who installed the CLI on Linux from the Cloudsmith apt, yum/dnf, or apk repository is affected. This includes:
- CI pipelines that install the CLI at build time
- Container images with the CLI baked in
- Developer machines running Linux
Homebrew (macOS) and Windows users are not affected.
Impact of not migrating
| Package manager | Effect of a dead Cloudsmith source |
|---|
| apt (Debian/Ubuntu) | apt-get update fails entirely, blocking all package operations |
| yum/dnf (RHEL/CentOS/Fedora) | Infisical repo warns but other repos still work |
| apk (Alpine) | Infisical repo warns but other repos still work |
Migration steps
Remove the old Cloudsmith source first, then re-run the repository setup script for your distribution.
# Remove old Cloudsmith source
grep -rlE 'cloudsmith.*infisical' /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ 2>/dev/null | xargs -r sudo rm -f
# Add new repository and install
curl -1sLf 'https://artifacts-cli.infisical.com/setup.deb.sh' | sudo -E bash
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install -y infisical
# Remove old Cloudsmith source
grep -rlE 'cloudsmith.*infisical' /etc/yum.repos.d/ 2>/dev/null | xargs -r sudo rm -f
# Add new repository and install
curl -1sLf 'https://artifacts-cli.infisical.com/setup.rpm.sh' | sudo -E bash
sudo yum install -y infisical
Run as root:# Remove old Cloudsmith source
sed -i '/cloudsmith.*infisical/d' /etc/apk/repositories
# Add new repository and install
wget -qO- 'https://artifacts-cli.infisical.com/setup.apk.sh' | sudo sh
apk update && apk add infisical
Already on the new host but stuck on an older version?
If you are on RHEL/CentOS/Fedora and your machine won’t install the latest release, your repo config may be pointing at an outdated path from an earlier setup. Re-run the setup script to fix it, then refresh:
curl -1sLf 'https://artifacts-cli.infisical.com/setup.rpm.sh' | sudo -E bash
sudo yum clean all && sudo yum makecache && sudo yum install -y infisical
This version-pinning issue only affects RHEL/CentOS/Fedora (yum/dnf). Debian/Ubuntu and Alpine are not affected.
Verify the migration
After running the setup script, confirm your package manager is pointing at the new host:
Debian / Ubuntu
RHEL / CentOS / Fedora
Alpine
grep -r 'infisical' /etc/apt/sources.list.d/
# Should show artifacts-cli.infisical.com, not cloudsmith.io
grep -r 'infisical' /etc/yum.repos.d/
# Should show artifacts-cli.infisical.com, not cloudsmith.io
grep 'infisical' /etc/apk/repositories
# Should show artifacts-cli.infisical.com, not cloudsmith.io
