coolify

Manage Coolify deployments, applications, databases, and services via the Coolify API. Use when the user wants to deploy, start, stop, restart, or manage applications hosted on Coolify.

Why use this skill?

Automate your Coolify applications, databases, and infrastructure with this powerful AI skill. Easily deploy, restart, and manage your stack directly from your console.

What This Skill Does

The Coolify AI skill provides a robust interface to manage your self-hosted or cloud-based Coolify instance directly from your terminal or OpenClaw interface. It acts as an abstraction layer over the Coolify REST API, allowing developers to orchestrate infrastructure, deploy applications, manage database instances, and configure environment variables through natural language commands. By integrating directly with the {baseDir}/scripts/coolify utility, this skill handles authentication and command formatting automatically, reducing the cognitive load of memorizing API endpoints or crafting complex curl requests.

Installation

To install this skill, run the following command in your terminal: clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/visiongeist/coolify

Ensure you have configured your COOLIFY_TOKEN environment variable, which is generated within the Coolify Dashboard under 'Keys & Tokens'. You must also ensure that jq is installed on your system, as it is required for processing the JSON output from the API.

Use Cases

This skill is perfect for DevOps engineers and developers who want to streamline their deployment lifecycle. Key use cases include:

  • Automating continuous deployment triggers for multiple projects.
  • Rapidly provisioning and managing environment variables for staging vs. production environments.
  • Monitoring application logs in real-time during troubleshooting sessions.
  • Managing multiple microservices or Docker Compose services without logging into the GUI dashboard.
  • Quickly performing health checks and service restarts across distributed applications.

Example Prompts

  1. "Restart the production-api application and show me the last 50 lines of logs."
  2. "List all my currently running applications and tell me which ones are using a PostgreSQL database."
  3. "Update the API_KEY environment variable for the frontend-app to 'new-secret-key-123' and then trigger a redeploy."

Tips & Limitations

  • Security: Since this skill handles infrastructure-level commands, ensure your COOLIFY_TOKEN is stored in a secure secret manager rather than plain-text files.
  • Rate Limiting: If you are managing a large number of projects, be aware of API rate limits on your Coolify instance.
  • Connectivity: This skill requires network access to the Coolify instance (e.g., app.coolify.io or your private URL). Ensure your firewall allows outbound requests to these endpoints.
