Agent skill for gddy

Overview

The gddy agent skill helps an AI coding agent install and use the gddy CLI on your behalf. Installing the skill is a one-time setup. After it's in place, you can ask your agent to find a domain, check pricing, register it, or update DNS records in plain language, and it runs the actual gddy commands using your own authenticated session.

After you install the skill, you can ask your agent things like:

• "Set up gddy for me." (installs the CLI; you're prompted to log in automatically the first time a command needs it)
• "Find available domains for a coffee subscription startup."
• "Is example.com available, and what would it cost to register?"
• "Add a CNAME record for www on example.com pointing to example.github.io."
• "List the DNS records on example.com."

Your agent will run the equivalent gddy commands, parse the JSON output, and summarize the result. It also knows how to use the CLI's self-documentation to stay current as gddy evolves (gddy --help, gddy search <keywords>, gddy tree, and gddy guide).

Safety notes

The skill can purchase domains and modify DNS records if you ask it to. These guardrails apply when it does:

• Domain purchase is real money and not reversible. The skill walks through the quote-then-purchase flow and confirms with you before finalizing a purchase.
• gddy dns set and gddy dns delete are destructive — they replace or remove every matching record. The skill runs these with --dry-run first and shows you the change before applying it.
• The skill acts with whatever credentials and environment your gddy CLI is currently authenticated against. Check with gddy auth status if you're unsure which account or environment your agent is operating on.

Install the skill

The skill is compatible with skills, a package-manager-style installer for agent skills. It supports Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, Windsurf, opencode, and many other compatible AI coding agents. The following procedure installs the gddy agent skill.
