Overview

Skippr Cloud gives you managed identity, application backends, data, messaging, web delivery, and infrastructure state. Call each capability with skippr <service> <operation> after skippr login. Service guides show the same provisionable creates as CLI, Terraform, CDKTF TypeScript, or CDKTF Python. Start with a capability below. Do not treat a documented stub as available yet.

Preview capabilities

Build and secure an application

Capability	Use it to
auth	Create app user pools for users of your product.
Cloud User Directory	Sign in, manage people on your account, attach policies, and create keys.
secrets	Store and rotate named application secrets.
gateway	Create HTTP or WebSocket Apis, routes, authorizers, and function or event integrations.
functions	Register, update, and invoke short-lived application code.
sites	Publish a website, promote or roll back a deployment, and bind a custom domain after DNS validation.
deploy	Bind a GitHub App installation, create runner pools, and run GitHub Actions jobs on Skippr-managed Linux runners.

Store and move data

Capability	Use it to
tables	Store document and key-value items with PK/SK keys, indexes, conditionals, transactions, and TTL.
objects	Store objects, use multipart uploads, and create presigned URLs.
queue	Hand work to competing consumers with visibility and acknowledgement controls.
events	Route application events to queue and function targets.
scheduler	Run named schedules that deliver to events or queue.
logs	Ingest and filter application log events.
metrics	Record datapoints, query aggregates, and manage alarms.
traces	Ingest spans and look up traces.
elt	Declare managed pipelines and inspect run status. The installable ELT runner is a separate Production product.

Manage domains and infrastructure state

Capability	Use it to
dns	Manage zones, records, and DNS-01 validation records.
certs	Request, inspect, renew, and delete public TLS certificates.
inventory	See which Cloud resources exist in your account and whether they have drifted.

Use skippr <service> --help or the API action reference to confirm an action is available and to open its request and response contracts.

Preview stubs

These capabilities are not available yet:

Capability	Intended job
streams	Ordered append log with topics, partitions, consumer groups, and offsets.
machines	Long-running virtual machine fleets.

Common journeys

Create an API-backed application

1. Sign in with skippr login, then use Cloud User Directory for people and workload identity.
2. Store application state with skippr tables and credentials with skippr secrets.
3. Register code with skippr functions.
4. Expose HTTP or WebSocket routes with skippr gateway.
5. Add asynchronous work with skippr events, skippr queue, and skippr scheduler.

Publish a web application

1. Create a stable sites Site.
2. Upload and complete an immutable Deployment.
3. Test its preview hostname.
4. Promote the Deployment and optionally attach a DomainBinding.
5. Route dynamic application requests to a gateway Api.

Manage infrastructure as code

1. Obtain operator or workload credentials from Cloud User Directory.
2. Choose Terraform or CDKTF.
3. Declare supported cloud_* resources.
4. Use inventory for managed-resource verification; keep Terraform as the source of desired state.

Limits, errors, and contracts

Limits are service-specific. Use each capability guide and API action schema rather than assuming a platform-wide value. Cloud JSON errors use code, message, and requestId.

The CLI is the default client. The API reference defines the shared HTTPS protocol for SDKs and direct callers, and links to the service catalog, API action reference, Infrastructure resources, and machine-readable schemas.
