Go 1.23 toolchain for amd64 hosts. This older catalog name is distinct from the multi-architecture library/go package.
smolvm pack pull registry.smolmachines.com/library/golang:latest This command uses a tag published for this package. Confirm that its platform entry in the tags table matches your host architecture; :latest is not universally multi-platform.
Verified steps — with the smolvm CLI installed:
# Pull :latest — linux/amd64 only
smolvm pack pull registry.smolmachines.com/library/golang:latest -o golang.smolmachine # Run a one-off command — ephemeral, the VM is discarded when it exits
smolvm pack run --sidecar golang.smolmachine go version # Or run it as a persistent machine — create, start, exec, stop
smolvm machine create --name golang --from golang.smolmachine smolvm machine start --name golang smolvm machine exec --name golang -- go version smolvm machine stop --name golang | tag | digest | size | platforms | created |
