Connect to the DigitalOcean API v2 to manage droplets, domains, DNS records, managed databases, App Platform apps and volumes. Pure Ruby, zero gems — stdlib only.

Setup (check before using)

ruby ~/.claude/skills/digitalocean/scripts/check_setup.rb

If the output is OK, proceed to the Flow section.

If the output is SETUP_NEEDED, guide the user step by step. Present ONE step at a time, wait for the user to confirm before moving to the next.

Step 1 — Ask the user to create a Personal Access Token:

You need a DigitalOcean Personal Access Token. Go to the API section in the DigitalOcean Control Panel:

https://cloud.digitalocean.com/account/api/tokens

Click Generate New Token, give it a name (e.g. "hitank"), select the scopes you need (read or read+write), and copy the token.

Paste the token here.

Step 2 — When the user pastes the token, save it:

ruby ~/.claude/skills/digitalocean/scripts/save_token.rb 'PASTED_TOKEN'

If the script outputs an error, the token is invalid. Ask the user to double-check and try again.

If setup is not complete, DO NOT proceed to the Flow. Complete all steps first.

Flow

The argument $ARGUMENTS may contain a droplet name or ID.

Step 1: Show account info

ruby ~/.claude/skills/digitalocean/scripts/account.rb

Present the account info to the user.

Step 2: List droplets

ruby ~/.claude/skills/digitalocean/scripts/droplets.rb

Present the droplets to the user. If $ARGUMENTS matches a droplet name or ID, use that droplet. Otherwise ask which droplet to work with.

Step 3: Show droplet details

ruby ~/.claude/skills/digitalocean/scripts/droplet.rb DROPLET_ID

Present the droplet info and ask what the user wants to do.

Step 4: Droplet actions

Perform a droplet action (requires user confirmation):

Show current droplet status first, then ask: "Do you want to perform ACTION on this droplet?" Only execute after a "yes".

Supported actions: reboot, power_off, power_on, shutdown, enable_backups, disable_backups, enable_ipv6, password_reset, snapshot.

ruby ~/.claude/skills/digitalocean/scripts/droplet_action.rb DROPLET_ID ACTION
ruby ~/.claude/skills/digitalocean/scripts/droplet_action.rb DROPLET_ID snapshot --name "my-snapshot"

Create a new droplet (requires user confirmation):

Ask the user for name, region, size, and image. Confirm all details before creating.

ruby ~/.claude/skills/digitalocean/scripts/create_droplet.rb NAME REGION SIZE IMAGE

Example:

ruby ~/.claude/skills/digitalocean/scripts/create_droplet.rb my-server nyc1 s-1vcpu-1gb ubuntu-24-04-x64

Step 5: Other resources

List domains:

ruby ~/.claude/skills/digitalocean/scripts/domains.rb

List DNS records for a domain:

ruby ~/.claude/skills/digitalocean/scripts/dns_records.rb DOMAIN_NAME

List managed databases:

ruby ~/.claude/skills/digitalocean/scripts/databases.rb

List App Platform apps:

ruby ~/.claude/skills/digitalocean/scripts/apps.rb

List block storage volumes:

ruby ~/.claude/skills/digitalocean/scripts/volumes.rb

Notes

• Pure Ruby, zero gems — stdlib only (json, net/http, uri, fileutils)
• Auth via Bearer token in Authorization header
• Token file: ~/.config/digitalocean/token (outside the repo, never commit)
• Creating droplets and performing droplet actions require explicit user confirmation
