Datumctl

Use this skill when the task is specifically about running datumctl commands directly.

Choose the right integration

• For direct CLI execution, use datumctl.
• For a broader set of Datum-focused skills and agent installation targets, use datum-cloud/skills.
• For tool-based integrations in MCP-capable environments, use datum-mcp.

Datumctl-specific rules

• Authenticate with datumctl login for interactive use.
• For headless or automation workflows, prefer machine-account authentication via datumctl login --credentials <file>.
• Most resource commands need either an active context or explicit --organization / --project flags.
• Prefer -o json or -o yaml when another tool or agent needs structured output.
