crbin 0.12.0 — Initial public release

crbin is a minimalist GNU-style utility that executes a random binary
from the system path. Its behavior is intentionally unpredictable and unsafe,
reflecting the core philosophy of the tool:

"If it's executable, it might run."

Highlights in v0.12.0

  • Added full recursive and non-recursive PATH scanning
    • RECURSE=1 enables recursive search
    • default mode searches only direct bin directories
  • Added support for custom binary directories via BINDIRECTORIES
  • Added environment variable version stamping (CRBIN_VERSION)
  • Reduced output for a more classical coreutils feel
  • Stabilized random selection and execution model
  • Improved directory scanning and file validation
  • Added early-exit behavior when no executables are found

Included builds

This release includes cross-compiled binaries for multiple architectures:

  • crbin-amd64
  • crbin-i386
  • crbin-arm64
  • crbin-armhf
  • crbin-mips
  • crbin-mipsel
  • crbin-riscv64

(Musl and macOS builds will be added in future releases.)

Safety warning

DO NOT run crbin as root or with sudo.
It may execute destructive system utilities depending on RNG output.
