Prerequisites

Install pup using the setup instructions.

Required Input Resolution

For commands that need specific scope values (<env>, <service-name>, <team-id>, resource IDs), use this order:

Check context first (conversation history, prior command output, saved variables).
If missing, run a discovery command first (list/search) to get valid values.
If still missing or ambiguous, ask the user to confirm the exact value.
Then run the target command.
Never run commands with unresolved placeholders like <env> or <monitor-id>.

Auth

bash

pup auth login          # OAuth2 browser flow (recommended)
pup auth status         # Check token validity
pup auth refresh        # Refresh expired token (no browser)
pup auth logout         # Clear credentials

Tokens expire (~1 hour). If a command fails with 401/403 mid-conversation:

bash

pup auth refresh        # Try refresh first
pup auth login          # If refresh fails, full re-auth

If Chrome opens the wrong profile/window, use the one-time OAuth URL printed by pup auth login (If the browser doesn't open, visit: ...) and open that link manually in the correct account session.

Headless/CI (no browser)

bash

# Use env vars or:
export DD_API_KEY=your-api-key
export DD_APP_KEY=your-app-key
export DD_SITE=datadoghq.com    # or datadoghq.eu, etc.
