Eve CLI Primitives

Use this skill as the command map for Eve. Keep examples short and concrete.

Profiles (API Target + Defaults)

# Create and use a profile
eve profile create staging --api-url https://api.eh1.incept5.dev
eve profile use staging

# Set defaults to avoid repeating flags
eve profile set --default-email [email protected] --default-ssh-key ~/.ssh/id_ed25519
eve profile set --org org_xxx --project proj_xxx

# Inspect current profile
eve profile show

Authentication

eve auth login
eve auth status
eve auth logout
eve auth permissions

# Sync local OAuth tokens for agent harnesses (optional)
eve auth sync

# Nostr challenge (API-level, no CLI command yet)
# POST /auth/challenge {"provider": "nostr", "pubkey": "<hex>"}

Orgs and Projects

eve org list
eve org ensure my-org --slug myorg

eve project list
eve project ensure --name "My App" --slug my-app --repo-url [email protected]:me/my-app.git --branch main

# Membership management
eve org members --org org_xxx
eve org members add [email protected] --role admin --org org_xxx
eve org members remove user_abc --org org_xxx

eve project members --project proj_xxx
eve project members add [email protected] --role admin --project proj_xxx
eve project members remove user_abc --project proj_xxx

URL impact: The org --slug and project --slug directly form your deployment URLs and K8s namespaces:

  • URL: {service}.{orgSlug}-{projectSlug}-{env}.{domain} (e.g., api.myorg-my-app-staging.eh1.incept5.dev)
  • Namespace: eve-{orgSlug}-{projectSlug}-{env} (e.g., eve-myorg-my-app-staging)

Choose slugs carefully — they are immutable after creation.

Environments and Deploys

# Create a persistent environment
eve env create staging --project proj_xxx --type persistent

# Inspect environments
eve env list --project proj_xxx
eve env show staging --project proj_xxx

# Deploy an environment (requires --ref with 40-char SHA or a ref resolved against --repo-dir)
eve env deploy staging --ref main --repo-dir .

# When environment has a pipeline configured, the above triggers the pipeline.
# Use --direct to bypass pipeline and deploy directly:
eve env deploy staging --ref main --repo-dir . --direct

# Pass inputs to pipeline:
eve env deploy staging --ref main --repo-dir . --inputs '{"key":"value"}'

# Diagnostics
eve env diagnose proj_xxx staging
eve env logs proj_xxx staging
eve env delete proj_xxx staging

Jobs (Create + Observe)

eve job create --description "Review auth flow"
eve job list --phase active
eve job show <job-id>
eve job follow <job-id>
eve job diagnose <job-id>
eve job result <job-id>

Coordination (Supervise + Threads)

eve supervise <job-id> --timeout 60
eve thread messages <thread-id> --since 10m
eve thread post <thread-id> --body '{"kind":"directive","body":"focus on auth"}'
eve thread follow <thread-id>

Agents + Chat

# Sync agent/team/chat configuration from repo
eve agents sync --project proj_xxx --ref main --repo-dir .
# Inspect resolved agent config (from latest sync)
eve agents config --project proj_xxx --json
# Simulate chat routing without Slack
eve chat simulate --project proj_xxx --team-id T123 --channel-id C456 --user-id U789 --text "hello"

# Set org default agent slug (fallback when no slug matches)
eve org update org_xxx --default-agent mission-control

Packs (AgentPacks)

eve packs status
eve packs resolve --dry-run
eve migrate skills-to-packs

Slack gateway commands (run inside Slack):

@eve <agent-slug> <command>
@eve agents list
@eve agents listen <agent-slug>

Pipelines and Workflows

eve pipeline list
eve pipeline show <project> <name>
eve pipeline run <name> --ref <sha> --env <env> --repo-dir ./my-app

eve workflow list

eve workflow run <project> <name> --input '{"k":"v"}'
eve workflow invoke <project> <name> --input '{"k":"v"}'
eve workflow logs <job-id>

Builds

Builds are first-class primitives that track image construction from input (spec) to execution (run) to output (artifacts).

# List builds for a project
eve build list [--project <id>]

# Create a build spec
eve build create --project <id> --ref <sha> --manifest-hash <hash>

# Show build spec details
eve build show <build_id>

# Start a build run
eve build run <build_id>

# List runs for a build
eve build runs <build_id>

# View build logs
eve build logs <build_id> [--run <run_id>]

# List produced image artifacts (digests)
eve build artifacts <build_id>

# Full diagnostic dump (spec + runs + artifacts + logs)
eve build diagnose <build_id>

# Cancel an active build
eve build cancel <build_id>

Builds happen automatically during pipeline build steps. Use eve build diagnose to debug build failures.

Harnesses (Optional)

eve harness list
eve harness list --capabilities
eve harness get mclaude
eve agents config --json

Notes

  • Use --project if no default project is set in the profile.
  • Integrations are org-scoped; use --org for integrations commands.
  • Prefer eve job ... (singular) for job commands.

How to use eve-cli-primitives on Cursor

AI-first code editor with Composer

1

Prerequisites

Before installing skills in Cursor, ensure your development environment meets these requirements:

  • Cursor installed and configured on your development machine
  • Node.js version 16.0+ with npm package manager (verify with node --version)
  • Active project directory or workspace where you want to add eve-cli-primitives
2

Execute installation command

Execute the skills CLI command in your project's root directory to begin installation:

$npx skills add https://github.com/incept5/eve-skillpacks --skill eve-cli-primitives

The skills CLI fetches eve-cli-primitives from GitHub repository incept5/eve-skillpacks and configures it for Cursor.

3

Select Cursor when prompted

The CLI will show a list of available agents. Use arrow keys to navigate and space to select Cursor:

◆ Which agents do you want to install to?
│ ── Universal (.agents/skills) ── always included ────
│ • Amp
│ • Antigravity
│ • Cline
│ • Codex
│ ●Cursor(selected)
│ • Cursor
│ • Windsurf
4

Verify installation

Confirm successful installation by checking the skill directory location:

.cursor/skills/eve-cli-primitives

Reload or restart Cursor to activate eve-cli-primitives. Access the skill through slash commands (e.g., /eve-cli-primitives) or your agent's skill management interface.

  5. 5.Draft stakeholder communications and refine based on feedback
  6. 6.Build template library for recurring PM tasks
  7. 7.Share effective prompts with product team

Common Pitfalls

  • Not validating competitive research—verify facts before sharing
  • Accepting user stories without involving engineering team
  • Over-relying on frameworks without qualitative judgment
  • Not customizing outputs to company culture and communication style
  • Skipping stakeholder validation of generated requirements

Best Practices

✓ Do

  • +Validate research and competitive analysis with real data
  • +Collaborate with engineering when generating technical requirements
  • +Customize frameworks and templates to your company context
  • +Use skill for first drafts, refine with stakeholder input
  • +Document successful prompt patterns for PM tasks
  • +Combine AI efficiency with human judgment and intuition

✗ Don't

  • Don't publish competitive analysis without fact-checking
  • Don't finalize user stories without engineering review
  • Don't make prioritization decisions solely on AI scoring
  • Don't skip customer validation of generated requirements
  • Don't ignore company-specific context and culture

💡 Pro Tips

  • Provide context: company goals, constraints, customer feedback
  • Ask for alternatives: 'Show 3 ways to prioritize this roadmap'
  • Request stakeholder-specific formatting: 'Executive summary vs. engineering spec'
  • Use skill for 70% generation + 30% customization to company needs

When to Use This

✓ Use When

Use for user story writing, competitive research, roadmap prioritization, stakeholder communication, and PRD drafting. Best for reducing repetitive documentation and research work.

✗ Avoid When

Avoid for strategic product vision (requires deep customer empathy), pricing decisions (needs market and financial expertise), or when face-to-face customer discovery is more valuable than speed.

Learning Path

  1. 1Basic: user stories, feature specs, status updates
  2. 2Intermediate: competitive analysis, prioritization frameworks, PRDs
  3. 3Advanced: product strategy, go-to-market planning, OKR setting
