Installation
Pre-check: Aliyun CLI >= 3.3.3 required
Run aliyun version to verify >= 3.3.3. If not installed or version too low,
run curl -fsSL https://aliyuncli.alicdn.com/setup.sh | bash to update,
or see references/cli-installation-guide.md for installation instructions.
Pre-check: Aliyun CLI plugin update required
[MUST] run aliyun configure set --auto-plugin-install true to enable automatic plugin installation.
[MUST] CLI AI-Mode & User-Agent — Before executing any business CLI command:
The aliyun CLI default timeout may cause indefinite hangs. You [MUST] set the following environment variables before executing any API command:
Variable
Description
Default
ALIBABA_CLOUD_CONNECT_TIMEOUT
Connection timeout in milliseconds
10000
ALIBABA_CLOUD_READ_TIMEOUT
Read timeout in milliseconds
30000
For large-volume queries (e.g., paginated task instance lists with 500+ results), ALIBABA_CLOUD_READ_TIMEOUT may be increased to 60000 ms.
If an API call times out, [MUST] retry once with a doubled read timeout value. If the second attempt also fails, report the timeout to the user and suggest checking network connectivity, project ID validity, or RAM permissions.
No other special environment variable requirements.
Authentication
Pre-check: Alibaba Cloud Credentials Required
Security Rules:
NEVER read, echo, or print AK/SK values (e.g., echo $ALIBABA_CLOUD_ACCESS_KEY_ID is FORBIDDEN)
NEVER ask the user to input AK/SK directly in the conversation or command line
NEVER use aliyun configure set with literal credential values
ONLY use aliyun configure list to check credential status
aliyun configure list
Check the output for a valid profile (AK, STS, or OAuth identity).
Configure credentials outside of this session (via aliyun configure in terminal or environment variables in shell profile)
Return and re-run after aliyun configure list shows a valid profile

[MUST] Permission Failure Handling: When any command or API call fails due to permission errors at any point during execution, follow this process:
Read references/ram-policies.md to get the full list of permissions required by this SKILL
Use ram-permission-diagnose skill to guide the user through requesting the necessary permissions
Pause and wait until the user confirms that the required permissions have been granted
Parameter Confirmation
IMPORTANT: Parameter Confirmation — Before executing any command or API call,
ALL user-customizable parameters (e.g., ProjectId, RegionId, bizdate, instance IDs, etc.)
