cloud-sdk init |
Initialize a new project in the current working directory |
cloud-sdk check |
Run lint, type-check, and test passes against the project |
cloud-sdk build |
Build the project artifacts |
cloud-sdk test |
Execute the full test suite |
cloud-sdk deploy |
Show the deployment pipeline guide (build → test → stage → prod) |
cloud-sdk config |
Display or manage project configuration (config.json) |
cloud-sdk status |
Check overall project health and status |
cloud-sdk template <name> |
Generate a code template for the given component name |
cloud-sdk docs |

cloud-sdk clean |
Remove build artifacts and temporary files |
cloud-sdk help |
Show the built-in help message with all commands |
cloud-sdk version |
Print the current version (v2.0.0) |
Data Storage
All operational data is stored in ~/.local/share/cloud-sdk/ by default. You can override this by setting the CLOUD_SDK_DIR environment variable. Key files inside the data directory:
history.log— timestamped log of every command executedconfig.json— project-level configuration (managed viaconfigcommand)
The tool respects XDG_DATA_HOME if set, falling back to $HOME/.local/share.
Requirements
- Bash 4.0+ (uses
set -euo pipefailfor strict error handling) - coreutils (standard
date,mkdir,echo) - No external dependencies or API keys required
- Works on Linux and macOS out of the box
When to Use
- Bootstrapping a new project — run
cloud-sdk initto set up project scaffolding quickly from the terminal without remembering per-tool init commands - Pre-commit quality gates — use
cloud-sdk checkas part of a Git pre-commit hook to run lint + type-check + tests before every commit - CI/CD pipeline steps — chain
cloud-sdk buildandcloud-sdk testinside your continuous integration scripts for a consistent, tool-agnostic interface - Deployment checklists — run
cloud-sdk deployto get a guided walkthrough of the build → test → stage → prod pipeline so nothing gets skipped - Housekeeping and cleanup — execute
cloud-sdk cleanto wipe build artifacts after releases, freeing disk space and resetting state
Examples
# Initialize a new project in the current directory
cloud-sdk init
# Run all quality checks (lint + type-check + tests)
cloud-sdk check
# Build the project
cloud-sdk build
# Run the test suite
cloud-sdk test
# View the deployment guide
cloud-sdk deploy
# Generate a code template for a component called "service"
cloud-sdk template service
# Generate project documentation
cloud-sdk docs
# Check project health
cloud-sdk status
# Clean up build artifacts
cloud-sdk clean
# Show version
cloud-sdk version
Configuration
Set the CLOUD_SDK_DIR environment variable to change the data directory:
export CLOUD_SDK_DIR="$HOME/my-project/.cloud-sdk"
Default location: ~/.local/share/cloud-sdk/
Output
All command output goes to stdout. Redirect to a file if needed:
cloud-sdk status > project-health.txt
History is automatically logged to $DATA_DIR/history.log with timestamps.
