What it does

This skill enables AI agents to interact directly with the Alibaba Cloud platform using the official Aliyun CLI. It allows for programmatic management of cloud resources, execution of commands, and automation of routine administrative tasks within the Apsara Stack environment.

When to use it

• Automating the provisioning or de-provisioning of ECS instances and RDS databases during deployment pipelines.
• Retrieving real-time metrics or logs from specific cloud resources for monitoring dashboards.
• Executing batch operations across multiple regions without manual console intervention.
• Integrating cloud infrastructure management directly into custom AI agent workflows.

Key capabilities

• Direct interaction with the Aliyun CLI interface via command execution.
• Management of core Alibaba Cloud services including compute, storage, and networking.
• Support for authentication and authorization flows required by the CLI.
• Execution of complex multi-step administrative tasks programmatically.

Example prompts

• "Use the Aliyun CLI to list all active ECS instances in the us-west-1 region."
• "Create a new security group with inbound rules allowing SSH access from my IP address."
• "Run a diagnostic command on the specified RDS instance to check disk usage."

Tips & gotchas

Ensure your AI agent has valid Alibaba Cloud credentials configured before attempting CLI operations, as unauthorized requests will fail immediately. This skill relies on the underlying CLI tooling, so familiarity with standard Linux command-line syntax is beneficial for constructing effective prompts.
