Interested in seeing the contents of your container images without running them? Check out this new tool.

cek (container exploration kit) is a CLI tool for exploring the OCI images filesystem. Unlike Skopeo, it works with the container itself (rather than the container registry), i.e. it can read images directly from Docker, Podman, or containerd in addition to pulling them from remote registries. cek allows you to:

- list files in your image and display the directory tree structure;
- read file contents;
- inspect image metadata;
- export images to tar files.
