## chainctl images helm history

Show digest history for a Chainguard Helm chart tag.

### Synopsis

Show the digest history for a Chainguard Helm chart tag.

Chart tags are mutable. This command lists every digest a chart tag has pointed
at over time, ordered newest first, so you can identify when a regression was
introduced and pin to an earlier digest.

CHART accepts either a bare chart name (with --parent) or a full OCI reference.
If no tag is provided, you will be prompted to select one.

```
chainctl images helm history CHART[:TAG] [flags]
```

### Examples

```

# Bare chart name with an explicit parent group path
chainctl images helm history flux:v2.18.4 --parent my-org/charts

# Bare chart name in the iamguarded-charts folder
chainctl images helm history flux:v2.18.4 --parent my-org/iamguarded-charts

# Interactively pick a tag
chainctl images helm history flux --parent my-org/charts

# Full OCI reference
chainctl images helm history cgr.dev/my-org/charts/flux:v2.18.4

# JSON output
chainctl images helm history flux:v2.18.4 --parent my-org/charts -o json
```

### Options
