All capabilities are exposed through the `lizard` CLI (npm package `@lizard-build/cli`). This skill teaches you to drive it. If `lizard` isn't on PATH, install it: `npm install -g @lizard-build/cli`.\n\nIf `$ARGUMENTS` is non-empty, treat it as the user's request and act on it. If empty, ask what they want to do on Lizard.\n\n## Read this first\n\nThis skill documents platform behavior (build pipeline, env precedence, what knobs the API exposes). It does not describe the user's repo.\n\nBefore writing commands for a specific project:\n\n1. Read the user's `package.json`, `Dockerfile`, `requirements.txt`, framework config — confirm what already exists before adding flags.\n2. Don't assume scripts/conventions that aren't visible. On the lizardpack auto-detect path, `Procfile` (`web:` line, Python/Ruby) and `package.json scripts.start` (Node) ARE picked up as the start command; on the synthesized-Dockerfile path (`buildCommand`/`startCommand` set) neither is read. Ports are inferred only from `EXPOSE`, framework defaults, or an explicit `PORT` env.\n3. When in doubt, ask the user or run `lizard <cmd> --help --json`.\n\n## Execution rules\n\n1. Prefer the `lizard` CLI. For anything not exposed by it, ask the user — don't hit the API directly.\n2. Always pass `--json` on non-interactive calls. The CLI also auto-switches when stdout isn't a TTY. For streaming commands (`lizard up` without `--detach`), `--json` produces one JSON event per line: `{ event: \"log\", line }`, terminating with `{ event: \"done\" }` / `{ event: \"error\", message }`; `up` additionally emits a final `{ event: \"deployed\" | \"failed\" | \"deploying\", status, url }` (`url` may be `null`). `lizard logs --json` is **not** a stream: it returns the last 200 lines (override with `--tail N`, max 1000) and exits — do not wait on it expecting more. Need a specific incident? Use `--restart latest` or `--restart <id>`. Only stream logs without `--json` if the user actively wants a live tail.\n3. For unfamiliar commands, run `lizard <cmd> --help --json` first — never guess flag shapes. See [Discovery](#discovery).\n4. Resolve context before any mutation. `lizard status` shows the cwd link; `lizard ps --json` shows services in the linked project. Confirm you're targeting the right thing.\n5. For destructive actions (delete service, drop addon, overwrite a project-wide secret, prod restart), confirm intent with the user before executing. The CLI's own prompts fire only on TTY.\n\n## Mental model\n\n```\nworkspace → project → service (+ managed addons)\n```\n\n- Workspace — account/org level. User belongs to one or more.\n- Project — group of related services in one workspace. The cwd gets linked to a project (config at `~/.lizard/config.json`).\n- Service — a deployable unit. Source is either a git repo (`sourceType=github`) or an uploaded tarball (`sourceType=upload`).\n- Managed addons — `postgres`, `redis`, `s3`. Provisioned with `lizard add <type>`; `s3` ships with a public-read default bucket named `default`. See [Managed addons](#managed-addons) for the env vars each type exposes.\n- Cross-resource refs — `${{<name>.<KEY>}}` resolves at deploy time against the target's merged env. A ref to a missing target or key resolves to an empty string — it does NOT fail the deploy (only circular refs throw). After wiring refs, verify the consumer actually got values: `lizard ssh --service <svc> -- env`. Stored form is ID-based, so renames are safe.\n\n## Discovery\n\nThe CLI has ~30 subcommands. Discover at runtime:\n\n```\nlizard --help --json                       # root + all commands + global flags + exit codes\nlizard <cmd> --help --json                  # specific command schema\nlizard <cmd> <sub> --help --json            # nested (e.g. `lizard service set --help --json`)\n```\n\nReturns `{ cli, version, command: { arguments, options, subcommands }, globalOptions, exitCodes }`.\n\n## Exit codes\n\n- `0` success — continue\n- `1` generic error — inspect message, surface to user\n- `2` auth (401/403) — run `lizard login` yourself (safe from a tool call now: it creates a session, prints an authentication URL to stderr, and exits immediately — no browser poll, no blocking). Hand that URL to the user as a clickable link and ask them to authenticate in the browser; once they confirm, re-run the original command — the pending session is picked up automatically (if it still reports pending, they haven't finished — wait and retry). `! lizard login` in the user's own terminal still works too.\n- `3` not found (404) — wrong name / resource gone; verify with `lizard project list` / `lizard ps`\n- `4` timeout — retry or report\n- `5` cancelled by user — stop\n\n## Setup decision flow\n\nWhen the user wants to deploy or set up something new, work out the right action from cwd context before running anything:\n\n1. `lizard status --json` in cwd.\n2. Linked to a project? → add a service in that project: `lizard add -r owner/repo` (git source) or `lizard add -s <name>` (empty). Do not create a new project unless the user explicitly says so.\n3. Not linked but parent dir is linked? → likely a monorepo sub-app. Add a service in the parent's project and set `rootDirectory` to the cwd subpath via `service set`.\n4. Neither linked? → check `lizard project list --json` for one matching the directory or repo name. Match → `lizard link --project <name> [--workspace <ws>]` (pass `--workspace` to disambiguate same-named projects across workspaces). No match → `lizard init --name <name>`.\n\nNaming heuristic: app-style names (`my-api`, `worker`, `flappy-bird`) are service names. Use the repo or directory name for the project.\n\n## Platform builder\n\nBuilds run on the platform's build nodes (no local Docker needed). When a build fails, read logs with `lizard logs --build`.\n\n### Build decision order\n\n1. Synthesized Dockerfile — if `buildCommand` and/or `startCommand` are set on the service (or passed via `lizard up`), the platform generates a Dockerfile from those commands. No lizardpack invocation.\n2. Repo Dockerfile (verbatim) — if `dockerfilePath` is set on the service, the platform uses that Dockerfile from the repo unchanged.\n3. lizardpack auto-detect — clone, run `lizardpack`. If a repo `Dockerfile` exists AND has a real build step (a `RUN <pkg-manager>` line, not just `COPY dist/`), it's used verbatim; otherwise lizardpack generates a multi-stage one. Supported: Go, Node, Python, Rust, Ruby, PHP, Java, static — first match in that order.\n\n### What triggers a rebuild\n\n- `git push` to the tracked branch → auto-rebuild via GitHub webhook.\n- `lizard redeploy` / `lizard up` → explicit rebuild.\n- Changing `VITE_*` or `NEXT_PUBLIC_*` env vars → forces rebuild on next deploy (build-time bakes).\n- `service set` for build-affecting fields (`repoUrl`, `branch`, `sourceType`, `buildCommand`, `dockerfilePath`, `rootDirectory`) → auto-rebuilds running services. Do NOT chain a `lizard redeploy` after it — that queues a second, redundant build.\n- `service set` for runtime-only fields (`startCommand`, `preDeployCommand`, `containerPort`, `watchPatterns`) → no auto-rebuild. Follow with `lizard redeploy` to apply.\n- All other env vars / secrets → applied without a rebuild; the service restarts to pick them up.\n\n## Deploying\n\nFirst question for a new service: upload vs git repo. **Always check for a git remote before reaching for `up`** — the CLI never auto-detects one, so you must do it yourself:\n\n```\ngit remote get-url origin\n```\n\n- **Exit 0 with a GitHub URL → use the git-source path below**, not `up`. Parse `owner/repo` from the URL and run `lizard add -r owner/repo`. This is strongly preferred: pushes auto-redeploy via webhook, and there's no re-upload on every change.\n- **No remote / non-GitHub / not a git repo → use tarball upload (`lizard up`).** This is the fallback for quick local iteration or no-remote situations, not the default.\n\n`lizard up` always works regardless of git state, which makes it the path of least resistance — resist it when a GitHub remote exists. Only fall back to upload when the remote check actually fails. (For a private repo whose remote exists but isn't yet accessible to Lizard, run `lizard git connect` to install the GitHub App, then use the git-source path — don't silently downgrade to a tarball.)\n\n### Git-source deploy (preferred when there's a remote)\n\n```\n# One-shot for a new service from GitHub:\nlizard add -r owner/repo --json\n\n# Existing service: switch source to git or update branch:\nlizard service set <svc> \\\n  --set sourceType=github \\\n  --set repoUrl=https://github.com/owner/repo \\\n  --set branch=main \\\n  --json\nlizard redeploy --service <svc>\n```\n\nWhen `repoUrl` is set, pushes to the matching branch auto-redeploy via the GitHub webhook. If the service has a `rootDirectory` (monorepo subpath) or watch patterns, only matching changes trigger redeploys.\n\nUseful `service set` fields (discover full list with `lizard service set --help --json`):\n\n- `sourceType` = `github | upload`\n- `repoUrl`, `branch`, `rootDirectory`\n- `dockerfilePath` — use a specific repo Dockerfile, bypasses lizardpack auto-detect\n- `buildCommand`\n- `startCommand`, `preDeployCommand`\n- `watchPatterns` — string array, comma-separated or JSON\n- `containerPort` — TCP port the app listens on (defaults to 3000). Set to `0` for [worker mode](#worker-mode).\n- `name` — rename a service (lowercase a-z, digits, hyphens; 1–40 chars). Goes through `config:apply`; the legacy `PATCH /api/apps/:id` returns 410.\n\nField names are flat and match the wire schema 1:1 (and `service show` output). No `build.*` / `deploy.*` / `source.*` grouping exists in the API, DB, or node-agent.\n\n`service set` uses optimistic concurrency via `configRevision`. On 409, re-read with `lizard service show`, reconcile, retry; `--force` overrides.\n\n### Tarball upload (no git remote, or quick local iteration)\n\n```\nlizard up --json\n```\n\n- Uploads cwd as a tarball (respects `.gitignore`), forces `sourceType=upload`.\n- Streams build logs over SSE; emits a final `{ event: \"deployed\", url }` on success (`{ event: \"failed\" }` on failure; `url` may be `null`).\n- Flags: `--project`, `--service`, `--region`, `--build-command`, `--start-command`, `--pre-deploy-command`, `--port`, `--detach`, `--ci`.\n- If cwd isn't linked, auto-runs `init` — interactive on a TTY. Headless (non-TTY) it does **not** auto-create a project: it errors out asking you to run `lizard init --name <project>` first (or pass `--project <project>` to `up`). This guards against a cwd typo silently spawning an empty project in CI. So for headless flows, link explicitly first.\n- `lizard up` always switches the service to `sourceType=upload`. Do not use it to update a git-backed service — use `lizard redeploy` or push to the remote.\n\n## Worker mode\n\nFor services that don't expose an HTTP listener (background workers, reconcilers, queue consumers, cron-style polling loops), set `containerPort=0`. The platform then:\n\n- Skips `PORT` env injection (the worker doesn't bind anywhere).\n- Skips the port reachability check (no `app port X unreachable` log spam, no false-positive \"unhealthy\" status).\n- Skips `EXPOSE` in the synthesized Dockerfile.\n- Skips the LB route registration on the node — nothing is served. (A generated `.onlizard.com` domain may still appear on the service; it won't respond.)\n\nSet it one of three ways:\n\n```\nlizard up --port 0                              # new upload-source worker\nlizard port 0 [--service <svc>]                 # flip existing service to worker mode\nlizard service set <svc> --set containerPort=0  # same, via the config:apply path\n```\n\n`lizard port` with no argument prints the current port (or `worker mode` when 0). Worker mode is a hard switch — re-deploys are needed for the port change to take effect.\n\nDon't use worker mode for a regular HTTP service that just happens to be slow to start — worker mode hides \"the listener never came up\" bugs because there's nothing to check.\n\n## Secrets\n\nTwo scopes exist. No workspace-level globals.\n\n- Project (\"global\"): `lizard secrets set KEY=v [K2=v2 …] --global` → project scope (wire: `secrets.shared`)\n- Service (default): `lizard secrets set KEY=v [K2=v2 …] [--service <svc>]` → service scope (wire: `secrets.services[<svc>]`)\n\n`set` is variadic. Companion subcommands: `lizard secrets list|delete K1 K2|import` (import reads dotenv from stdin). When the linked service in cwd is set, plain `lizard secrets set KEY=v` writes to that service. Pass `--global` to escape to project scope.\n\n### Precedence (last writer wins)\n\n```\naddon-issued env  <  project secrets  <  project env  <  app env  <  app secrets  <  platform vars\n```\n\nApp secrets override project secrets. Platform vars (`LIZARD_SERVICE_NAME`, `LIZARD_PROJECT_ID`, `PORT`, `LIZARD_PUBLIC_DOMAIN`) are last and cannot be shadowed.\n\n### Secret scoping\n\nDefault to service-scope. `--global` puts the value into `process.env` of every service in the project — including ones that don't need it.\n\nRules:\n\n- Check first: `lizard secrets list` (+ `--global`) before set/update — avoid creating a duplicate or shadowing an existing key (service scope wins over global; see [Precedence](#precedence-last-writer-wins)).\n- Default — service-scope: `lizard secrets set KEY=v --service <svc>` per consumer. For addon DSNs, bind on each consumer with `lizard secrets set DATABASE_URL='${{postgres.DATABASE_URL}}' --service <svc>` (no separate `env` command — refs are interpolated at deploy time wherever they appear) — rotation still happens once on the addon, every reference updates.\n- `--global` only for non-secrets and provably-public values: `LOG_LEVEL`, `NODE_ENV`, feature flags, frontend `SENTRY_DSN`. If unsure whether a value is a secret, treat it as one. A compromised service reads its own env; broader scope = more credentials exposed for no reason.\n\n### Applying an env change\n\n- Runtime vars/secrets → pushed live via SIGUSR1, **no restart**.\n- `VITE_*` / `NEXT_PUBLIC_*` (build-time baked) → `lizard redeploy --service <svc>`; a plain restart won't pick them up.\n- Verify the consumer got it: `lizard ssh --service <svc> -- env`.\n\n## Managed addons\n\nProvision with `lizard add <type>`. Each addon exposes a fixed env-var set; reference by name from a consumer service via `${{<addon-name>.KEY}}`. The first addon of a given type gets the bare type as its name (so `${{postgres.DATABASE_URL}}` works out of the box); subsequent ones get `{type}-{adjective}-{noun}` like `postgres-autumn-bear`. There's no type-alias fallback — a ref must use the addon's actual name. Once written, refs are stored ID-based, so renaming the addon later does not break existing consumers.\n\n- `postgres` — `DATABASE_URL`, `PGHOST`, `PGPORT`, `PGUSER`, `PGPASSWORD`, `PGDATABASE`, `POSTGRES_USER`, `POSTGRES_DB`, `POSTGRES_PASSWORD`.\n- `redis` — `REDIS_URL`.\n- `s3` — `S3_ENDPOINT`, `S3_DEFAULT_BUCKET`, `S3_ACCESS_KEY_ID`, `S3_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY`, `S3_REGION`. Auto-creates a public-read bucket named `default`; objects in any public bucket are served without auth two ways: the gateway URL the dashboard shows, `https://s3-<region>.onlizard.com/<addonId>/<bucket>/<key>`, or the platform proxy `<dashboard-host>/api/s3/<addonId>/public/<bucket>/<key>` (the host `lizard open` launches; long-lived immutable cache headers). For AWS SDK use, set `forcePathStyle: true`. ACL flips aren't on the CLI yet — point users at the dashboard. To push a local file into a bucket directly (no AWS SDK needed), use `lizard s3 upload <file> [--addon <name>] [--bucket <name>] [--key <key>] [--content-type <type>]` — auto-resolves the project's only S3 addon and bucket `default` if omitted; prints `{key, etag, size, url}`. `lizard s3 list|ls [--bucket <name>] [--prefix <p>]` lists objects in a bucket.\n\n## Composition patterns\n\nMulti-step requests follow natural chains. Return one unified response, don't farm out steps:\n\n- First deploy from git — pick action via [Setup decision flow](#setup-decision-flow) → `lizard add -r owner/repo` → stream build → surface URL.\n- First deploy from local code — Setup decision flow → `lizard up` → surface URL.\n- Add a managed database to an existing service — `lizard add postgres` → tell the user to reference `${{postgres.DATABASE_URL}}` in their service env → `redeploy` only if they need to consume it right away.\n- Add object storage to a service — `lizard add s3` → reference `${{s3.S3_ENDPOINT}}`, `${{s3.S3_DEFAULT_BUCKET}}`, `${{s3.S3_ACCESS_KEY_ID}}`, `${{s3.S3_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY}}`, `${{s3.S3_REGION}}` from the consumer service. Anything uploaded to the `default` bucket is publicly served at `<dashboard-host>/api/s3/<addonId>/public/default/<key>` with no extra setup. See [Managed addons](#managed-addons).\n- Wire a fresh git source on an existing service — `service set --set sourceType=github --set repoUrl=… --set branch=…` → `redeploy`.\n- Fix a failed build — `logs --build` → diagnose → fix project (user's repo) OR adjust `buildCommand` / `startCommand` via `service set` → `redeploy` → `logs` to verify.\n- Add a custom domain — `domain <host> --service <svc>` (the hostname is a positional, there is no `add` subcommand) → surface the TXT/CNAME records to the user → `domain verify <host>` once DNS propagates. Bare `domain` shows (or auto-generates) the service's current domain. If the host is already attached to another of the user's services, the attach 409s with a reclaim hint — re-run with `--force` to move it here.\n\n## Common ops\n\n```\nlizard logs --json [--service <name>]      # last 200 runtime log lines, then exit (--tail N to override)\nlizard logs --build --json                  # last build's logs\nlizard logs --restart latest --json         # log tail of the most recent crash/restart\nlizard ps --json                            # services with status + URL (per-replica detail: `events`)\nlizard status                               # cwd project link (no auth needed)\nlizard restart --service <name>             # rolling restart\nlizard redeploy [--service <name>]          # rebuild + redeploy from current source\nlizard scale --service <name> --replicas N\nlizard domain example.com --service <name>  # attach custom domain (positional, not `domain add`)\nlizard domain --json                        # show/auto-generate the service's current domain\nlizard domain verify example.com            # activate after DNS records propagate\nlizard domain example.com --service <name> --force  # move domain here from another of your services\nlizard metrics --json                       # CPU/memory/network/disk (add --cost for cost)\nlizard events --json                        # deploy history + replica status\nlizard ssh --service <name> -- <cmd>        # one-off command INSIDE the service container (streams output, returns remote exit code)\nlizard run --service <name> -- <cmd>        # run a command LOCALLY with the service's env/secrets injected\nlizard project list --json                  # all projects in workspace\nlizard regions --json\nlizard open                                 # open dashboard\nlizard whoami --json                        # auth check\nlizard s3 upload <file> [--bucket <b>]      # upload a local file to an S3 addon bucket\nlizard s3 list --json [--bucket <b>]        # list objects in an S3 addon bucket\n```\n\nFor exact flags, `lizard <cmd> --help --json`. Other commands not shown above: `lizard git` (GitHub integration), `lizard config` (project configuration), `lizard workspace` (workspace info) — discover each with `lizard <cmd> --help --json`.\n\n## Response format\n\nAfter an operation, return:\n\n1. What was done — action + scope (which project, which service).\n2. Result — IDs, status, URLs from the JSON output.\n3. What's next — verifying read-back command, DNS record the user must add, env-var reference template, or confirmation the task is complete.\n\nSkip command-by-command transcripts unless they explain a failure.\n\n## Don't do\n\n1. Don't add Docker `HEALTHCHECK` — the platform ignores it (it doesn't run Docker's healthcheck loop).\n2. On the lizardpack auto-detect path, `Procfile` (`web:`) and `package.json scripts.start` are picked up automatically — don't force a redundant `startCommand`. But the moment `buildCommand`/`startCommand` is set (synthesized-Dockerfile path), neither is read — there set `startCommand` explicitly via `lizard up --start-command` / `service set --set startCommand=...`, or include `CMD` in the user's Dockerfile.\n3. Don't use `lizard up` to switch a service to a git source. It always forces `sourceType=upload`. Use `service set` + `redeploy` instead.\n4. A Dockerfile that copies pre-built artifacts (`COPY dist/`, `build/`, `out/`, `.next/`, `public/`) without a `RUN` build step gets silently regenerated by lizardpack. Add a build step or set `dockerfilePath` to force verbatim use.\n5. Don't generate Dockerfiles unsolicited — lizardpack auto-detects most stacks. Try a deploy first; write one only if it fails. Ask before either.\n6. Don't put runtime secrets (DB credentials, API keys, RPC creds, S3 keys) in `--global` \"just in case another service needs it later\". Scope to the services that consume them — see [Secret scoping](#secret-scoping).\n",

Discover at runtime:\n\n```\nlizard --help --json                       # root + all commands + global flags + exit codes\nlizard <cmd> --help --json                  # specific command schema\nlizard <cmd> <sub> --help --json            # nested (e.g. `lizard service set --help --json`)\n```\n\nReturns `{ cli, version, command: { arguments, options, subcommands }, globalOptions, exitCodes }`.\n\n## Exit codes\n\n- `0` success — continue\n- `1` generic error — inspect message, surface to user\n- `2` auth (401/403) — run `lizard login` yourself (safe from a tool call now: it creates a session, prints an authentication URL to stderr, and exits immediately — no browser poll, no blocking). Hand that URL to the user as a clickable link and ask them to authenticate in the browser; once they confirm, re-run the original command — the pending session is picked up automatically (if it still reports pending, they haven't finished — wait and retry). `! lizard login` in the user's own terminal still works too.\n- `3` not found (404) — wrong name / resource gone; verify with `lizard project list` / `lizard ps`\n- `4` timeout — retry or report\n- `5` cancelled by user — stop\n\n## Setup decision flow\n\nWhen the user wants to deploy or set up something new, work out the right action from cwd context before running anything:\n\n1. `lizard status --json` in cwd.\n2. Linked to a project? → add a service in that project: `lizard add -r owner/repo` (git source) or `lizard add -s <name>` (empty). Do not create a new project unless the user explicitly says so.\n3. Not linked but parent dir is linked? → likely a monorepo sub-app. Add a service in the parent's project and set `rootDirectory` to the cwd subpath via `service set`.\n4. Neither linked? → check `lizard project list --json` for one matching the directory or repo name. Match → `lizard link --project <name> [--workspace <ws>]` (pass `--workspace` to disambiguate same-named projects across workspaces). No match → `lizard init --name <name>`.\n\nNaming heuristic: app-style names (`my-api`, `worker`, `flappy-bird`) are service names. Use the repo or directory name for the project.\n\n## Platform builder\n\nBuilds run on the platform's build nodes (no local Docker needed). When a build fails, read logs with `lizard logs --build`.\n\n### Build decision order\n\n1. Synthesized Dockerfile — if `buildCommand` and/or `startCommand` are set on the service (or passed via `lizard up`), the platform generates a Dockerfile from those commands. No lizardpack invocation.\n2. Repo Dockerfile (verbatim) — if `dockerfilePath` is set on the service, the platform uses that Dockerfile from the repo unchanged.\n3. lizardpack auto-detect — clone, run `lizardpack`. If a repo `Dockerfile` exists AND has a real build step (a `RUN <pkg-manager>` line, not just `COPY dist/`), it's used verbatim; otherwise lizardpack generates a multi-stage one. Supported: Go, Node, Python, Rust, Ruby, PHP, Java, static — first match in that order.\n\n### What triggers a rebuild\n\n- `git push` to the tracked branch → auto-rebuild via GitHub webhook.\n- `lizard redeploy` / `lizard up` → explicit rebuild.\n- Changing `VITE_*` or `NEXT_PUBLIC_*` env vars → forces rebuild on next deploy (build-time bakes).\n- `service set` for build-affecting fields (`repoUrl`, `branch`, `sourceType`, `buildCommand`, `dockerfilePath`, `rootDirectory`) → auto-rebuilds running services. Do NOT chain a `lizard redeploy` after it — that queues a second, redundant build.\n- `service set` for runtime-only fields (`startCommand`, `preDeployCommand`, `containerPort`, `watchPatterns`) → no auto-rebuild. Follow with `lizard redeploy` to apply.\n- All other env vars / secrets → applied without a rebuild; the service restarts to pick them up.\n\n## Deploying\n\nFirst question for a new service: upload vs git repo. **Always check for a git remote before reaching for `up`** — the CLI never auto-detects one, so you must do it yourself:\n\n```\ngit remote get-url origin\n```\n\n- **Exit 0 with a GitHub URL → use the git-source path below**, not `up`. Parse `owner/repo` from the URL and run `lizard add -r owner/repo`. This is strongly preferred: pushes auto-redeploy via webhook, and there's no re-upload on every change.\n- **No remote / non-GitHub / not a git repo → use tarball upload (`lizard up`).** This is the fallback for quick local iteration or no-remote situations, not the default.\n\n`lizard up` always works regardless of git state, which makes it the path of least resistance — resist it when a GitHub remote exists. Only fall back to upload when the remote check actually fails. (For a private repo whose remote exists but isn't yet accessible to Lizard, run `lizard git connect` to install the GitHub App, then use the git-source path — don't silently downgrade to a tarball.)\n\n### Git-source deploy (preferred when there's a remote)\n\n```\n# One-shot for a new service from GitHub:\nlizard add -r owner/repo --json\n\n# Existing service: switch source to git or update branch:\nlizard service set <svc> \\\n  --set sourceType=github \\\n  --set repoUrl=https://github.com/owner/repo \\\n  --set branch=main \\\n  --json\nlizard redeploy --service <svc>\n```\n\nWhen `repoUrl` is set, pushes to the matching branch auto-redeploy via the GitHub webhook. If the service has a `rootDirectory` (monorepo subpath) or watch patterns, only matching changes trigger redeploys.\n\nUseful `service set` fields (discover full list with `lizard service set --help --json`):\n\n- `sourceType` = `github | upload`\n- `repoUrl`, `branch`, `rootDirectory`\n- `dockerfilePath` — use a specific repo Dockerfile, bypasses lizardpack auto-detect\n- `buildCommand`\n- `startCommand`, `preDeployCommand`\n- `watchPatterns` — string array, comma-separated or JSON\n- `containerPort` — TCP port the app listens on (defaults to 3000). Set to `0` for [worker mode](#worker-mode).\n- `name` — rename a service (lowercase a-z, digits, hyphens; 1–40 chars). Goes through `config:apply`; the legacy `PATCH /api/apps/:id` returns 410.\n\nField names are flat and match the wire schema 1:1 (and `service show` output). No `build.*` / `deploy.*` / `source.*` grouping exists in the API, DB, or node-agent.\n\n`service set` uses optimistic concurrency via `configRevision`. On 409, re-read with `lizard service show`, reconcile, retry; `--force` overrides.\n\n### Tarball upload (no git remote, or quick local iteration)\n\n```\nlizard up --json\n```\n\n- Uploads cwd as a tarball (respects `.gitignore`), forces `sourceType=upload`.\n- Streams build logs over SSE; emits a final `{ event: \"deployed\", url }` on success (`{ event: \"failed\" }` on failure; `url` may be `null`).\n- Flags: `--project`, `--service`, `--region`, `--build-command`, `--start-command`, `--pre-deploy-command`, `--port`, `--detach`, `--ci`.\n- If cwd isn't linked, auto-runs `init` — interactive on a TTY. Headless (non-TTY) it does **not** auto-create a project: it errors out asking you to run `lizard init --name <project>` first (or pass `--project <project>` to `up`). This guards against a cwd typo silently spawning an empty project in CI. So for headless flows, link explicitly first.\n- `lizard up` always switches the service to `sourceType=upload`. Do not use it to update a git-backed service — use `lizard redeploy` or push to the remote.\n\n## Worker mode\n\nFor services that don't expose an HTTP listener (background workers, reconcilers, queue consumers, cron-style polling loops), set `containerPort=0`. The platform then:\n\n- Skips `PORT` env injection (the worker doesn't bind anywhere).\n- Skips the port reachability check (no `app port X unreachable` log spam, no false-positive \"unhealthy\" status).\n- Skips `EXPOSE` in the synthesized Dockerfile.\n- Skips the LB route registration on the node — nothing is served. (A generated `.onlizard.com` domain may still appear on the service; it won't respond.)\n\nSet it one of three ways:\n\n```\nlizard up --port 0                              # new upload-source worker\nlizard port 0 [--service <svc>]                 # flip existing service to worker mode\nlizard service set <svc> --set containerPort=0  # same, via the config:apply path\n```\n\n`lizard port` with no argument prints the current port (or `worker mode` when 0). Worker mode is a hard switch — re-deploys are needed for the port change to take effect.\n\nDon't use worker mode for a regular HTTP service that just happens to be slow to start — worker mode hides \"the listener never came up\" bugs because there's nothing to check.\n\n## Secrets\n\nTwo scopes exist. No workspace-level globals.\n\n- Project (\"global\"): `lizard secrets set KEY=v [K2=v2 …] --global` → project scope (wire: `secrets.shared`)\n- Service (default): `lizard secrets set KEY=v [K2=v2 …] [--service <svc>]` → service scope (wire: `secrets.services[<svc>]`)\n\n`set` is variadic. Companion subcommands: `lizard secrets list|delete K1 K2|import` (import reads dotenv from stdin). When the linked service in cwd is set, plain `lizard secrets set KEY=v` writes to that service. Pass `--global` to escape to project scope.\n\n### Precedence (last writer wins)\n\n```\naddon-issued env  <  project secrets  <  project env  <  app env  <  app secrets  <  platform vars\n```\n\nApp secrets override project secrets. Platform vars (`LIZARD_SERVICE_NAME`, `LIZARD_PROJECT_ID`, `PORT`, `LIZARD_PUBLIC_DOMAIN`) are last and cannot be shadowed.\n\n### Secret scoping\n\nDefault to service-scope. `--global` puts the value into `process.env` of every service in the project — including ones that don't need it.\n\nRules:\n\n- Check first: `lizard secrets list` (+ `--global`) before set/update — avoid creating a duplicate or shadowing an existing key (service scope wins over global; see [Precedence](#precedence-last-writer-wins)).\n- Default — service-scope: `lizard secrets set KEY=v --service <svc>` per consumer. For addon DSNs, bind on each consumer with `lizard secrets set DATABASE_URL='${{postgres.DATABASE_URL}}' --service <svc>` (no separate `env` command — refs are interpolated at deploy time wherever they appear) — rotation still happens once on the addon, every reference updates.\n- `--global` only for non-secrets and provably-public values: `LOG_LEVEL`, `NODE_ENV`, feature flags, frontend `SENTRY_DSN`. If unsure whether a value is a secret, treat it as one. A compromised service reads its own env; broader scope = more credentials exposed for no reason.\n\n### Applying an env change\n\n- Runtime vars/secrets apply without rebuilding the image. The application process restarts to read its new environment; do not promise uninterrupted requests.\n- `VITE_*` / `NEXT_PUBLIC_*` (build-time baked) → `lizard redeploy --service <svc>`; a plain restart won't pick them up.\n- Verify a non-secret value or the application's behavior. Do not print the full environment: it can expose credentials.\n\n## Sandboxes: timeout\n\n`lizard sandbox create` sends a five-minute lifetime (`300000` milliseconds) by default. Pass `--timeout 0` to create a sandbox without expiration, or pass an integer up to `2147483647` milliseconds. This is a lifetime, not an idle timer: commands do not reset it. `lizard sandbox timeout <id> <ms>` sets a new lifetime of at least `1000` milliseconds. Check the current Sandboxes lifecycle documentation before relying on pause to retain state.\n\n## Managed addons\n\nProvision with `lizard add <type>`. Each addon exposes a fixed env-var set; reference by name from a consumer service via `${{<addon-name>.KEY}}`. The first addon of a given type gets the bare type as its name (so `${{postgres.DATABASE_URL}}` works out of the box); subsequent ones get `{type}-{adjective}-{noun}` like `postgres-autumn-bear`. There's no type-alias fallback — a ref must use the addon's actual name. Once written, refs are stored ID-based, so renaming the addon later does not break existing consumers.\n\n- `postgres` — `DATABASE_URL`, `PGHOST`, `PGPORT`, `PGUSER`, `PGPASSWORD`, `PGDATABASE`, `POSTGRES_USER`, `POSTGRES_DB`, `POSTGRES_PASSWORD`.\n- `redis` — `REDIS_URL`.\n- `s3` — `S3_ENDPOINT`, `S3_DEFAULT_BUCKET`, `S3_ACCESS_KEY_ID`, `S3_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY`, `S3_REGION`. Auto-creates a public-read bucket named `default`; objects in any public bucket are served without auth two ways: the gateway URL the dashboard shows, `https://s3-<region>.onlizard.com/<addonId>/<bucket>/<key>`, or the platform proxy `<dashboard-host>/api/s3/<addonId>/public/<bucket>/<key>` (the host `lizard open` launches; long-lived immutable cache headers). For AWS SDK use, set `forcePathStyle: true`. ACL flips aren't on the CLI yet — point users at the dashboard. To push a local file into a bucket directly (no AWS SDK needed), use `lizard s3 upload <file> [--addon <name>] [--bucket <name>] [--key <key>] [--content-type <type>]` — auto-resolves the project's only S3 addon and bucket `default` if omitted; prints `{key, etag, size, url}`. `lizard s3 list|ls [--bucket <name>] [--prefix <p>]` lists objects in a bucket.\n\n## Composition patterns\n\nMulti-step requests follow natural chains. Return one unified response, don't farm out steps:\n\n- First deploy from git — pick action via [Setup decision flow](#setup-decision-flow) → `lizard add -r owner/repo` → stream build → surface URL.\n- First deploy from local code — Setup decision flow → `lizard up` → surface URL.\n- Add a managed database to an existing service — `lizard add postgres` → tell the user to reference `${{postgres.DATABASE_URL}}` in their service env → `redeploy` only if they need to consume it right away.\n- Add object storage to a service — `lizard add s3` → reference `${{s3.S3_ENDPOINT}}`, `${{s3.S3_DEFAULT_BUCKET}}`, `${{s3.S3_ACCESS_KEY_ID}}`, `${{s3.S3_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY}}`, `${{s3.S3_REGION}}` from the consumer service. Anything uploaded to the `default` bucket is publicly served at `<dashboard-host>/api/s3/<addonId>/public/default/<key>` with no extra setup. See [Managed addons](#managed-addons).\n- Wire a fresh git source on an existing service — `service set --set sourceType=github --set repoUrl=… --set branch=…` → `redeploy`.\n- Fix a failed build — `logs --build` → diagnose → fix project (user's repo) OR adjust `buildCommand` / `startCommand` via `service set` → `redeploy` → `logs` to verify.\n- Add a custom domain — `domain <host> --service <svc>` (the hostname is a positional, there is no `add` subcommand) → surface the TXT/CNAME records to the user → `domain verify <host>` once DNS propagates. Bare `domain` shows (or auto-generates) the service's current domain. If the host is already attached to another of the user's services, the attach 409s with a reclaim hint — re-run with `--force` to move it here.\n\n## Common ops\n\n```\nlizard logs --json [--service <name>]      # last 200 runtime log lines, then exit (--tail N to override)\nlizard logs --build --json                  # last build's logs\nlizard logs --restart latest --json         # log tail of the most recent crash/restart\nlizard ps --json                            # services with status + URL (per-replica detail: `events`)\nlizard status                               # cwd project link (no auth needed)\nlizard restart --service <name>             # rolling restart\nlizard redeploy [--service <name>]          # rebuild + redeploy from current source\nlizard scale --service <name> --replicas N\nlizard domain example.com --service <name>  # attach custom domain (positional, not `domain add`)\nlizard domain --json                        # show/auto-generate the service's current domain\nlizard domain verify example.com            # activate after DNS records propagate\nlizard domain example.com --service <name> --force  # move domain here from another of your services\nlizard metrics --json                       # CPU/memory/network/disk (add --cost for cost)\nlizard events --json                        # deploy history + replica status\nlizard ssh --service <name> -- <cmd>        # one-off command INSIDE the service container (streams output, returns remote exit code)\nlizard run --service <name> -- <cmd>        # run a command LOCALLY with the service's env/secrets injected\nlizard project list --json                  # all projects in workspace\nlizard regions --json\nlizard open                                 # open dashboard\nlizard whoami --json                        # auth check\nlizard s3 upload <file> [--bucket <b>]      # upload a local file to an S3 addon bucket\nlizard s3 list --json [--bucket <b>]        # list objects in an S3 addon bucket\n```\n\nFor exact flags, `lizard <cmd> --help --json`. Other commands not shown above: `lizard git` (GitHub integration), `lizard config` (project configuration), `lizard workspace` (workspace info) — discover each with `lizard <cmd> --help --json`.\n\n## Response format\n\nAfter an operation, return:\n\n1. What was done — action + scope (which project, which service).\n2. Result — IDs, status, URLs from the JSON output.\n3. What's next — verifying read-back command, DNS record the user must add, env-var reference template, or confirmation the task is complete.\n\nSkip command-by-command transcripts unless they explain a failure.\n\n## Don't do\n\n1. Don't add Docker `HEALTHCHECK` — the platform ignores it (it doesn't run Docker's healthcheck loop).\n2. On the lizardpack auto-detect path, `Procfile` (`web:`) and `package.json scripts.start` are picked up automatically — don't force a redundant `startCommand`. But the moment `buildCommand`/`startCommand` is set (synthesized-Dockerfile path), neither is read — there set `startCommand` explicitly via `lizard up --start-command` / `service set --set startCommand=...`, or include `CMD` in the user's Dockerfile.\n3. Don't use `lizard up` to switch a service to a git source. It always forces `sourceType=upload`. Use `service set` + `redeploy` instead.\n4. A Dockerfile that copies pre-built artifacts (`COPY dist/`, `build/`, `out/`, `.next/`, `public/`) without a `RUN` build step gets silently regenerated by lizardpack. Add a build step or set `dockerfilePath` to force verbatim use.\n5. Don't generate Dockerfiles unsolicited — lizardpack auto-detects most stacks. Try a deploy first; write one only if it fails. Ask before either.\n6. Don't put runtime secrets (DB credentials, API keys, RPC creds, S3 keys) in `--global` \"just in case another service needs it later\". Scope to the services that consume them — see [Secret scoping](#secret-scoping).\n",

+## Sandboxes: timeout
+
+`lizard sandbox create` sends a five-minute lifetime (`300000` milliseconds) by default. Pass `--timeout 0` to create a sandbox without expiration, or pass an integer up to `2147483647` milliseconds. This is a lifetime, not an idle timer: commands do not reset it. `lizard sandbox timeout <id> <ms>` sets a new lifetime of at least `1000` milliseconds. Check the current Sandboxes lifecycle documentation before relying on pause to retain state.
