Manage Prime Gpu Pods
Overview
Manage Prime Intellect GPU pods end-to-end with CLI-only workflows.
Prefer automation-safe commands with --output json and use the bundled script to filter and select on-demand (non-spot) GPU configurations.
Workflow
- •Verify CLI access and authentication.
bash
prime --version prime config view # Authenticate if needed prime login --headless # Or configure key directly prime config set-api-key
- •Discover matching GPU inventory in JSON.
bash
prime availability list \ --gpu-type H100_80GB \ --gpu-count 1 \ --no-group-similar \ --output json
- •Select on-demand configurations and generate a create command.
bash
prime availability list \
--gpu-type H100_80GB \
--gpu-count 1 \
--no-group-similar \
--output json \
| python "$CODEX_HOME/skills/manage-prime-gpu-pods/scripts/select_on_demand_gpu.py" \
--top 5 \
--output table
prime availability list \
--gpu-type H100_80GB \
--gpu-count 1 \
--no-group-similar \
--output json \
| python "$CODEX_HOME/skills/manage-prime-gpu-pods/scripts/select_on_demand_gpu.py" \
--output create-cmd
- •Create the pod from a selected
ID.
bash
prime pods create --id <ID> --name <pod-name> --yes
If disk, vcpus, memory, or image is not provided, the CLI prompts interactively for missing values.
- •Monitor readiness and connect.
bash
prime pods list prime pods status <pod-id> prime pods ssh <pod-id>
- •Terminate and review history.
bash
prime pods terminate <pod-id> --yes prime pods history --output json
Execution Rules
- •Use
prime availability list --output jsonfor machine parsing instead of table output. - •Use
--no-group-similarwhen selecting a concrete purchasable configuration. - •Treat on-demand as
is_spot == false. - •Sort matching on-demand candidates by
price_valueascending when user asks for cheapest. - •Use
prime pods create --id <ID>as the canonical launch path from availability results. - •Use
prime pods status <pod-id> --output jsonfor automation polling. - •Use
prime pods terminate <pod-id> --yesfor deterministic cleanup. - •Respect team context:
- •Persisted team:
prime config set-team-id <team-id> - •Per-command override:
prime pods create --team-id <team-id> ...
- •Persisted team:
