Hi, I'd like to announce the first stable release of rkik (Rusty Klock Inspection Kit).

rkik is a stateless NTP inspection tool written in Rust - think of it as dig for NTP.
It lets you in a simple way query and compare NTP servers without running a daemon or requiring root, with JSON output for automation.

The new v1.0.0 release brings:

  • JSON output modes (--json, --pretty, --short)
  • Continuous monitoring flags (--count, --interval, --infinite)
  • A clean library API, so rkik can also be used as a crate
  • Refactored codebase, better error messages
  • Port specification integration ip.server.ntp:<port>

It already has +2k downloads on crates.io

Roadmap: upcoming support for NTS (Network Time Security) and PTP (Precision Time Protocol) in v2.0.

Thanks for considering!
