Zeabur Server List & Get

Always use npx zeabur@latest to invoke Zeabur CLI. Never use zeabur directly or any other installation method. If npx is not available, install Node.js first.

List All Servers

npx zeabur@latest server list -i=false

Output Example

     ID              NAME        IP              PROVIDER   LOCATION         STATUS   VM STATUS   OS
-----------------+-------------+---------------+----------+----------------+--------+-----------+----------
 6989b00fd42b...   my-server    103.45.67.89    Hetzner    Singapore, SG    Online   RUNNING     ZeaburOS
 6989b00fd42b...   dev-box      45.67.89.12     Vultr      Tokyo, JP        Online   RUNNING     Ubuntu

Which servers can host Zeabur projects: read the OS column

ZeaburOS means the machine can host Zeabur projects; Ubuntu means it cannot (not until ZeaburOS is installed on it). This is the authoritative answer — do not SSH into a machine to work out which kind it is.

For machine-readable output, --json carries the same value as os on every server:

npx zeabur@latest server list -i=false --json | jq -r '.[] | "\(.Name)\t\(.os)"'

Requires CLI 0.21.0 or newer. If the OS column and the os field are both absent, the CLI is older; either let npx zeabur@latest fetch the current version, or fall back to querying hasK3s through the API (see the zeabur-server-ssh skill, which documents that field's three-state trap).

Get Server Details

# By server ID
npx zeabur@latest server get <server-id> -i=false

Shows detailed info: OS, CPU/memory/disk usage, provider, location, managed status, creation time.

Resource columns read used/total — CPU in millicores (148/4000 m is 0.15 of 4 cores), memory and disk in MB. A column showing — means the value was not measured, not that the machine has none.

Reboot a Server

npx zeabur@latest server reboot <server-id> -y

-y skips confirmation prompt — required for non-interactive use.

Servers and Projects

A server can host Zeabur projects only once it runs ZeaburOS. A project's Region.ID will be server-<server-id> when it is deployed on such a server.

Renting provisions Ubuntu — base OS and SSH, no Zeabur services — so a newly rented server cannot host projects until ZeaburOS is installed on it. The zeabur-server-rent skill covers that step. Which kind a given server is, is answered by the OS column above.

Installing directly is only for a machine that is still blank. On one the user has already set up, converting means reinstalling it in the dashboard, which erases the disk — see the zeabur-server-rent skill before suggesting it.

On a ZeaburOS server:

  • To deploy a service, use the zeabur-deploy skill with the project bound to that server — do NOT SSH in and manually set up web servers or copy files.
  • SSH is for low-level debugging only (e.g. checking kubectl, inspecting disk, network diagnostics). It is not needed for deploying or managing services.

On a plain Ubuntu VPS: SSH is not a debugging side-channel, it is the whole point — the machine is the user's to set up as they like (docker compose, 1Panel, 宝塔, …). There are no Zeabur services to manage, and kubectl does not exist.

SSH into a Server

npx zeabur@latest server ssh <server-id>

The kubectl examples below assume a ZeaburOS server. On a plain Ubuntu VPS they fail with command not found — see the zeabur-server-ssh skill for how to tell the two apart.

For managed servers, the password is fetched automatically. If sshpass is installed, login is fully automatic; otherwise the password is printed for manual entry.

Non-Interactive SSH (Running Remote Commands)

In non-interactive environments (e.g. Claude Code, CI/CD), you cannot use an interactive SSH session. Instead, pipe commands via stdin with -i=false:

echo 'kubectl get pods -A' | npx zeabur@latest server ssh <server-id> -i=false

For multiple commands, separate them with ; or &&:

echo 'kubectl get pods -A; kubectl get svc -A' | npx zeabur@latest server ssh <server-id> -i=false

Important notes:

  • The output includes the server's MOTD (Message of the Day) banner. Filter it out when parsing results: 
    echo 'kubectl get pods -A' | npx zeabur@latest server ssh <server-id> -i=false 2>&1 \
  | grep -v "Welcome\|Documentation\|Management\|Support\|System load\|Usage of /\|Memory usage\|Swap usage\|Strictly\|just raised\|https://ubuntu\|Expanded\|updates can\|To see these\|Enable ESM\|See https://ubuntu\|New release\|Run 'do-release\|restart required\|INFO.*Connecting\|Pseudo-terminal\|^ \*"
  • If the remote command has a non-zero exit code (e.g. grep with no matches), the CLI will print ERROR exit status 1. This does not necessarily mean the SSH connection failed.
  • Heredoc syntax (<<'EOF') does not work reliably with this command. Always use echo '...' | instead.
