# OpenCLI Agent Pack: Railway CLI

Use this when an AI agent needs to work with `railway`.

## What this CLI is for
The official CLI from Railway. Service deploys, secrets, and logs from the terminal.

Best for: service deploys, secrets, and logs from the terminal.

## Agent readiness
Usable with guardrails (50/100)
- Supports non-interactive/scripted use.
- Works well in CI or repeatable automation.

## Install
```sh
npm i -g @railway/cli
```

## Verify before real work
```sh
railway whoami
```
Expected signal: Confirms the authenticated account.

## Safe starting commands
```sh
railway whoami
```

```sh
railway login && railway up
```

## Guardrails for agents
- Prefer small commands and ask the agent to summarize plain text output.
- Verify identity/account before running task commands.
- Network access is required; avoid leaking secrets in logs.
- Require confirmation before apply, delete, deploy, transfer, merge, or write actions.

## Suggested agent instruction
You may use Railway CLI (`railway`) for service deploys, secrets, and logs from the terminal.. First install it if missing, then run the verify command. Start with read-only or inspection commands. Summarize what you found before changing anything. Ask for confirmation before commands that mutate remote state, spend money, deploy, delete data, merge code, or expose secrets.
