CLI Reference

The THRINDEX CLI (thrindex, aliased as thx) exposes the Rust engine directly. It produces identical output to the Python SDK.

thrindex run

Run a compiled artifact through the behavioral simulator.

thrindex run <artifact.thx> [options]

Options

Flag	Default	Description
`--seed N`	`0`	RNG seed for reproducibility
`--threads N`	all cores	Number of worker threads
`--stdin`	—	Read spike raster JSON from stdin
`--energy-coeff F`	`1.0`	Energy coefficient in pJ per syn-op
`--quiet`	—	Print only the final prediction, no transcript

Output format

═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
 thrindex run  ·  model.thx
 format:  m3  ·  target: sim  ·  seed: 0
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
 input:          [100 × 700]
 output:         [100 × 20]
 synaptic_ops:   124800
 wall_time_ms:   8.2
 energy_pJ:      124800
 prediction:     class 7
 spike_counts:   [3 12 47 0 8 1 0 2 94 0 ...]
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════

The format is stable and snapshot-tested. Do not parse the separator lines; parse the key: value pairs.

thrindex bench

Run the conformance harness against a registered backend.

thrindex bench --conformance --target <target> [options]

Options

Flag	Default	Description
`--target T`	—	Backend to test. `sim` is the compiler target
`--artifact F`	bundled	Path to `.thx` artifact to use as test model
`--fixtures D`	bundled	Directory of fixture files (JSON spike rasters)
`--n-samples N`	all	Number of fixture samples to use

Output format

═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
 THRINDEX Conformance Report  ·  target: sim
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
 fixture_count:   120
 T_mean:          0.000  ≤ 0.020  PASS
 T_max (p99):     0.000  ≤ 0.130  PASS
 P_pred:          1.000  ≥ 0.900  PASS
─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
 PASS — THRINDEX Certified [v0]
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════

Exit code is 0 on PASS, 1 on FAIL, 2 on error.

thrindex doctor

Inspect the THRINDEX environment and optionally verify an artifact.

thrindex doctor [--check <artifact.thx>] [--verbose]

Without --check:

Python:     3.12.4  ✓ (≥ 3.11 required)
thrindex:   0.2.0
torch:      2.4.0   ✓ (optional, found)
artifact:   —       (no artifact specified)

With --check artifact.thx:

artifact:   model.thx
format:     m3  (current)
version:    0.2.0
target:     sim
dt_ms:      1.0
crc32:      OK  (d3a4f82c)
layers:
  [0] Dense     700 → 512
  [1] LIF       512   alpha: 0.9512  threshold: 0.3
  [2] Dense     512 → 20
  [3] LIF       20    alpha: 0.9512  threshold: 0.3
total params:  399380

thrindex targets

sim is the only compile target.

thrindex targets

AKD1500 is not listed. The Console builds that program at deploy. On the device, send an input with thrindex-runtime infer. See Hardware targets.

Exit codes

Code	Meaning
`0`	Success (PASS for conformance)
`1`	Application error (FAIL for conformance, model error)
`2`	Environment error (missing driver, bad artifact)
`130`	Interrupted by user (Ctrl-C)
