Perfect! Now I have a comprehensive understanding. Let me create a detailed summary document.

## Comprehensive Provider Abstraction Layer Analysis

I've completed a thorough exploration of the machine codebase. Here's the complete documentation you need to implement a Vultr provider:

### 1. PROVIDER INTERFACE/BASE CLASS

**File:** `/home/david/projects/stirlingbridge/machine/machine/provider.py`

The abstract base class `CloudProvider` defines the complete interface:

**Data Classes (shared between all providers):**
- `VM`: id, name, tags, region, ip_address, status
- `SSHKey`: id, name, fingerprint, public_key
- `DNSRecord`: id, name, type, data, ttl

**Required Abstract Methods:**
- `create_vm(name, region, image, size, ssh_key_name, tags, user_data) -> VM` - Create a VM and return its details
- `get_vm(vm_id) -> VM` - Get a single VM by ID
- `destroy_vm(vm_id) -> bool` - Delete a VM, return success
- `list_vms(tag=None) -> list` - List all VMs, optionally filtered by tag
- `get_ssh_key(name) -> SSHKey` - Get SSH key by name
- `list_ssh_keys() -> list` - List all SSH keys
- `create_dns_record(zone, record_type, name, data, ttl, tag=None) -> str` - Create DNS A/AAAA record
- `delete_dns_record(zone, record_name) -> bool` - Delete DNS record
- `get_dns_records(zone) -> list` - List DNS records in a zone
- `list_domains() -> list` - List all domains

**Optional Methods (with defaults provided):**
- `list_projects() -> list` - Returns empty list by default
- `assign_to_project(project_name, vm_id)` - No-op by default
- `validate_region(region)` - No-op by default
- `validate_image(image)` - No-op by default
- `provider_name` property - Returns class name by default (override for custom name)

### 2. DIGITALOCEAN PROVIDER IMPLEMENTATION

**File:** `/home/david/projects/stirlingbridge/machine/machine/providers/digitalocean.py`

**Key Implementation Details:**

**Initialization:**
- Takes `provider_config` dict from config.yml
- Requires `access-token` key, exits with fatal error if missing
- Creates `digitalocean.Manager` instance for API calls
- Provider config keys: `access-token`, `ssh-key`, `machine-size`, `image`, `region`, `dns-zone` (optional), `project` (optional)

**Region & Image Validation:**
- `VALID_REGIONS`: NYC1, NYC3, AMS3, SFO2, SFO3, SGP1, LON1, FRA1, TOR1, BLR1, SYD1
- `VALID_IMAGES`: AlmaLinux 8/9, CentOS Stream 9, Debian 11/12, Fedora 39/40, Rocky Linux 8/9, Ubuntu 20.04/22.04/24.04
- Validates region (exits on invalid)
- Warns on invalid image

**VM Creation Flow:**
1. Validates SSH key exists by name
2. Creates digitalocean.Droplet with provided params
3. Calls droplet.create()
4. Converts DO API response to VM dataclass via `_droplet_to_vm()`

**DNS Operations:**
- Creates digitalocean.Domain instances per zone
- Handles NotFoundError gracefully when zone doesn't exist
- Returns DNS records as list of DNSRecord objects

**Projects Support:**
- Fetches all projects, finds by name
- Calls `project.assign_resource([f"do:droplet:{vm_id}"])`
- Returns resource URIs in DigitalOcean format

**Helper Method:**
- `_get_do_ssh_key(name)` - Finds SSH key by name from all keys

---

### 3. PROVIDER SELECTION & CONFIGURATION FLOW

**File:** `/home/david/projects/stirlingbridge/machine/machine/config.py`

**Config Loading Sequence:**

1. **Auto-detection:**
   - Reads `~/.machine/config.yml` (or custom path via `--config-file`)
   - Looks for `provider:` key OR auto-detects from KNOWN_PROVIDERS sections in config
   - If multiple providers found, requires explicit `provider:` selection
   - If no providers found, fatal error listing available providers

2. **Provider Configuration:**
   - Extracts the provider section from YAML (e.g., `digital-ocean:`)
   - Passes entire section as dict to provider factory
   - Validates required keys: `ssh-key`, `machine-size`, `image`, `region`
   - Extracts optional keys: `dns-zone`, `project`

3. **Environment Variable Expansion:**
   - Pattern: `${VAR_NAME}` or `${VAR_NAME:-default}`
   - Expands in all config values recursively (strings, dicts, lists)
   - Fatal error on undefined vars without defaults

4. **Config Structure:**
   ```yaml
   provider: digital-ocean           # optional explicit selection
   digital-ocean:
     access-token: ${DO_TOKEN}       # required for DO
     ssh-key: my-key-name            # required
     machine-size: s-1vcpu-1gb       # required
     image: ubuntu-22-04-x64         # required
     region: nyc1                    # required
     dns-zone: example.com           # optional
     project: my-project             # optional
   machines:
     web-server:
       new-user-name: deployuser
       script-url: https://...
       script-dir: /opt/scripts
       script-path: /opt/scripts/init.sh
       script-args: "--flag=value"
   ```

---

### 4. PROVIDER INSTANTIATION

**File:** `/home/david/projects/stirlingbridge/machine/machine/providers/__init__.py`

**Registry Pattern:**
```python
KNOWN_PROVIDERS = ["digital-ocean"]  # List of provider names

def create_provider(provider_name, provider_config) -> CloudProvider:
    # Factory function that returns appropriate provider instance
    # Dispatches by provider_name
    # Exits with fatal error on unknown provider
```

**Call Chain:**
1. `main.py` calls `config.get(config_file)` → returns Config with provider_name
2. `main.py` calls `create_provider(cfg.provider_name, cfg.provider_config)`
3. Factory returns CloudProvider instance
4. Stored in MainCmdCtx and passed to all subcommands

---

### 6. KEY DESIGN PATTERNS

**Dependency Injection:**
- Simple pattern: `MainCmdCtx` passed via Click context
- Contains: Config, session_id, provider instance
- All subcommands receive via `@click.pass_context`

**Tag System:**
- All VMs tagged with creation metadata
- `machine:created` - marker for machine-created VMs
- `machine:type:{type}` - machine type from config
- `machine:session:{session_id}` - session ID for grouping
- Custom tags from `--tag` flag

**Session ID:**
- Generated once, stored in `~/.machine/session-id.yml`
- Used to prevent destroying VMs from other sessions
- 8-character random ID

**Provider API Contract:**
- All methods return provider-agnostic types (VM, SSHKey, DNSRecord)
- Provider responsible for adapter logic
- Graceful error handling (e.g., DNS zone not found logs warning, continues)

---

### 7. HOW SUBCOMMANDS USE PROVIDERS

Each subcommand pattern:
1. Extract provider from context: `provider = command_context.provider`
2. Call provider methods (e.g., `provider.create_vm()`, `provider.list_vms()`)
3. Provider returns standard types (VM, SSHKey, etc.)
4. Format/display results

**Example from create.py:**
- Validates config & SSH key
- Generates cloud-init script using `cloud_config.py`
- Calls `provider.create_vm()` with tags, user_data
- If DNS enabled, calls `provider.create_dns_record()`
- If project specified, calls `provider.assign_to_project()`

---

### 8. DEPENDENCIES & BUILD

### 9. IMPLEMENTATION CHECKLIST FOR VULTR PROVIDER

To implement a Vultr provider, you need to:

1. **Create** `/home/david/projects/stirlingbridge/machine/machine/providers/vultr.py`
   - Import vultr API client library
   - Extend `CloudProvider` base class
   - Implement all abstract methods
   - Map Vultr API responses to VM/SSHKey/DNSRecord types
   - Handle provider-specific validation (validate_region, validate_image)
   - Implement optional methods if Vultr supports projects

2. **Update** `/home/david/projects/stirlingbridge/machine/machine/providers/__init__.py`
   - Add "vultr" to KNOWN_PROVIDERS list
   - Add elif branch in create_provider() factory for vultr

3. **Update** `/home/david/projects/stirlingbridge/machine/pyproject.toml`
   - Add vultr Python client library dependency (e.g., `vultr>=3.0.0` or similar)

4. **Create Example Config** (for documentation)
   - Add `vultr:` section with required keys (API token, region, etc.)

5. **Update Tests** (if needed)
   - Extend CLI integration tests to support vultr config

6. **No Changes Needed:**
   - All subcommands work automatically via provider abstraction
   - config.py auto-detection works without changes
   - UI/CLI unchanged

---

### 10. CRITICAL NOTES FOR IMPLEMENTATION

**Provider Interface Requirements:**
- All methods must be implemented or inherited
- Return types MUST match (VM, SSHKey, DNSRecord dataclasses)
- Fatal errors via `fatal_error()` for critical failures
- Info/warnings via `info()` for non-critical issues
- Never raise exceptions; exit gracefully with fatal_error()

**Configuration Keys:**
- Config is a dict; access via provider_config["key"]
- Use `if "key" not in provider_config:` before accessing
- Call `fatal_error()` if required keys missing

**Tag Handling:**
- Accept `tags` list parameter in create_vm()
- Must store tags on VM instance (required for filtering/session isolation)
- Tag format enforced by tool (machine:created, machine:type:*, machine:session:*)

**DNS Support:**
- Optional feature (check if dns_zone in config)
- If zone doesn't exist, log warning and return None (graceful degradation)
- DNS records tied to IP addresses (data field contains IP)

**Error Handling Pattern:**
```python
try:
    # API call
except SomeApiException:
    fatal_error(f"Error: {error_message}")
```

This comprehensive analysis gives you everything needed to implement a Vultr (or any other) provider. The abstraction is clean and well-designed—all the provider-specific logic is isolated in a single module, while shared logic (CLI, config, subcommands) remains completely provider-agnostic.

Based on the search results, here's what I found about Vultr Python API client libraries on PyPI:

## Current Vultr Python Packages on PyPI

There are multiple Vultr Python client libraries available:

### 1. **vultr-python** (Most Recent)
This is a Python 3 wrapper for the Vultr API v2.0, released on December 1, 2025. This appears to be the most actively maintained option for current use.

### 2. **vultr** (Legacy Package)
This package provides a client library to the Vultr.com API. However, its maintenance is considered inactive, and it hasn't seen any new versions released to PyPI in the past 12 months.

### 3. **vultr-python-client**
This is a Python client for the V2 Vultr API that was generated from the OpenAPI spec at https://www.vultr.com/api/.

## Recommendation

For new projects, **vultr-python** would be the recommended choice since it was recently updated in December 2025 and is specifically designed as a Python 3 wrapper for the modern Vultr API v2.0.

I appreciate your question, but I need to clarify that the web page content provided doesn't contain information about a Python package, its versions, supported Python versions, or API methods.

The content appears to be an error page with JavaScript code for loading scripts and handling loading failures. It includes:

- An error message stating "JavaScript is disabled in your browser"
- A notice that "A required part of this site couldn't load"
- JavaScript functions for script loading and error handling

This is not documentation for a Python library or package. To answer your questions about version information, Python compatibility, package import names, usage examples, and available API methods, I would need access to actual package documentation—such as from PyPI, GitHub README files, or official documentation sites.

If you're looking for information about a specific Python package, please provide the package name or relevant documentation, and I'd be happy to help summarize that information for you.
# Vultr Python Client Library

## Library Overview

**Package Name:** openapi_client  
**Latest Version:** 1.0.0  
**Import Name:** openapi_client

## Description

This is "a python client for the V2 vultr API" generated from Vultr's OpenAPI specification using the OpenAPI Generator tool.

## Basic Usage Example

```python
import openapi_client

configuration = openapi_client.Configuration()
configuration.access_token = 'YOUR_BEARER_TOKEN'

api_client = openapi_client.ApiClient(configuration)
```

**Important:** You must manually set the access token after initializing the Configuration class, not during initialization.

## Available API Methods

The README does not provide detailed documentation of specific API methods for instances, SSH keys, DNS, or domains. It only notes that "the README and the docs folder in output_dir should be enough documentation to get started."

To access comprehensive API method documentation, you would need to:
1. Review the generated docs folder in the output directory
2. Consult the official Vultr API specification at https://www.vultr.com/api/

Based on the search results, I found information about vultr-python for the Vultr API v2:

## Primary Repository

The main vultr-python wrapper for the Vultr API v2 is available on PyPI at https://pypi.org/project/vultr-python and on GitHub at https://github.com/cssnr/vultr-python. It's a Python 3 wrapper for the Vultr API v2.

## Installation

You can install it from PyPI using `python -m pip install vultr-python` or from source by cloning the GitHub repository.

## Alternative Repository

There's also an OpenAPI-generated Python client for the V2 Vultr API at https://github.com/vultr/vultr-python-client, which was generated from the OpenAPI spec at https://www.vultr.com/api/.

Both projects provide Python bindings to interact with the Vultr API v2, with the cssnr/vultr-python being the more community-focused wrapper and the official vultr/vultr-python-client being the OpenAPI-generated version.

}
I cannot provide the API endpoints and request/response formats you're requesting based on the content provided.

The web page content shown is primarily composed of **CSS styling rules and JavaScript/TypeScript code** for a ReDoc API documentation interface. While it contains configuration for displaying API documentation, it does not include the actual API endpoint specifications, request schemas, response formats, region IDs, or image IDs you're asking about.

To obtain this information, you would need to:

1. **Access the full Vultr API documentation** at the ReDoc interface (which this page renders)
2. **Consult the Vultr API reference directly**, which should document:
   - POST /instances request/response schemas
   - GET endpoints for listing and retrieving instances
   - DELETE instance endpoints
   - SSH key management endpoints
   - DNS domain and record operations
   - Available region identifiers
   - Available OS/image options

The page content appears to be the *wrapper* for API documentation rather than the documentation itself. The actual endpoint definitions would be stored in an OpenAPI/Swagger specification file that this ReDoc interface references.

The main fields documented in the search results include:

- **region**: The Vultr location where the instance will be deployed
- **plan**: The instance plan to use
- **os_id**: The operating system ID to install on the instance
- **label**: The instance label for identification
- **hostname**: The hostname for the instance
- **user_data**: User data can be included in the request body

Additional optional fields mentioned include:
- **snapshot_id**: For deploying from a snapshot
- **app_id**: For deploying with an application
- **image_id**: For deploying from an image

The search results reference that "additional attributes can be applied on the Vultr Cloud Compute instance" on the Create Instance API page, but the specific details for ssh_keys and tags were not fully captured in these results. For a complete list of all available fields including ssh_keys and tags, you may need to consult the official Vultr API documentation directly.

I've reviewed the provided web page content, which appears to be the Postman application interface with New Relic monitoring code and analytics scripts.

**I cannot provide the API documentation you requested** because the page content does not contain any API endpoint specifications, request/response formats, or field definitions for:

- Instance creation endpoints
- Instance listing or retrieval endpoints
- SSH key management endpoints
- DNS management endpoints
- Field names for instance objects

The content consists primarily of:
- JavaScript bundle initialization code
- New Relic monitoring configuration
- Analytics and telemetry scripts
- UI loader styling and prefetch directives
- Application configuration variables

**To find this information, you would need to:**

1. Access Postman's official API documentation at their developer portal
2. Review the API specification documents directly
3. Consult endpoint documentation for your specific cloud provider's API (if this relates to a Postman integration)

If you have access to the actual API documentation or specification files, please share those, and I can help extract and format the endpoint information you're looking for.

Based on the web search results, I found relevant information about Vultr API v2 instance response fields. Here's what the search revealed:

## Instance Response Fields

The Vultr API v2 returns instance data with fields like `main_ip`, and the instance response includes fields such as `id`, `os`, `ram`, `disk`, `main_ip`, `cpu_count`, `region`, `default_password`, `date_created`, `status`, `netmask_v4`, `gateway_v4`, `plan`, `label`, `tag`, `tags`, and various IPv6 fields.

Regarding the specific fields you mentioned:
- **main_ip**: Used to get the instance's IP address
- **label**: A field in the instance response
- **status**: Indicates the status of the instance
- **tags**: Used instead of the deprecated `tag` field
- **sshkey_id**: Can be passed as a parameter when creating an instance

## Creating Instances and DNS Records

When creating an instance via the API, you POST to `https://api.vultr.com/v2/instances` with parameters like `region`, `plan`, `label`, and `os_id`.

Regarding DNS records, the API includes a `DomainService` interface to create domains, and if an IP is supplied the domain will be pre-populated with entries.

For comprehensive documentation on all API endpoints and response fields, you can visit the official Vultr API documentation at https://www.vultr.com/api/.

# GoVultr v2 - Key Struct Fields

Based on the documentation, here are the main struct fields you requested:

## Instance Struct
From the code, `Instance` is defined but full fields aren't shown in the excerpt. However, based on context, it contains fields like:
- `ID` (string)
- `Label` (string)
- `Status` (string)
- `Region` (string)
- `Plan` (string)
- `OS` info
- `MainIP` (string)
- Various networking and configuration fields

## InstanceCreateReq Struct
```go
type InstanceCreateReq struct {
    Label                string
    Hostname             string
    Backups              string
    EnableIPv6           *bool
    OsID                 int
    Plan                 string
    Region               string
    // ... additional fields for SSH keys, VPC, networks, etc.
}
```

**Example usage:**
```go
instanceOptions := &govultr.InstanceCreateReq{
    Label:                "awesome-go-app",
    Hostname:             "awesome-go.com",
    Backups:              "enabled",
    EnableIPv6:           BoolToBoolPtr(false),
    OsID:                 362,
    Plan:                 "vc2-1c-2gb",   
    Region:               "ewr",
}

res, err := vultrClient.Instance.Create(context.Background(), instanceOptions)
```

## SSHKey Struct
```go
type SSHKey struct {
    ID   string
    Name string
    // Public key data
}
```

## DomainRecord Struct
```go
type DomainRecord struct {
    ID       string
    Type     string
    Name     string
    Data     string
    Priority int
    TTL      int
}
```

## Domain Struct
```go
type Domain struct {
    Domain      string
    DateCreated string
    // DNS configuration fields
}
```

## Key Helper Functions
The library provides conversion utilities:
```go
BoolToBoolPtr(value bool) *bool
StringToStringPtr(value string) *string
IntToIntPtr(value int) *int
```

This mirrors the Vultr API v2 exactly with full service handler support for CRUD operations on all resources.
Thinking

Now I have enough context. Let me implement the Vultr provider. I'll use the vultr-python library which wraps the Vultr API v2.

Now let me sync dependencies and run the linter.

 + vultr-python==0.2.0
$ Bash
Run ruff linter
uv run ruff check machine/ 2>&1
All checks passed!

Let me also verify the import works and check the vultr-python API surface matches my assumptions.

$ Bash
Verify vultr-python imports and API
uv run python -c "from vultr import Vultr, VultrException; print('Import OK'); v = Vultr.__init__.__code__.co_varnames[:5]; print('Vultr init vars:', v); print('Methods:', [m for m in dir(Vultr) if not m.startswith('_')])"
Import OK
Vultr init vars: ('self', 'api_key')
Methods: ['create_instance', 'create_ipv4', 'create_key', 'create_script', 'delete', 'delete_instance', 'delete_ipv4', 'delete_key', 'delete_script', 'filter_keys', 'filter_list', 'filter_os', 'filter_regions', 'filter_scripts', 'get', 'get_instance', 'get_key', 'get_script', 'list_instances', 'list_ipv4', 'list_keys', 'list_os', 'list_plans', 'list_regions', 'list_scripts', 'patch', 'post', 'put', 'update_instance', 'update_key', 'update_script', 'url']

All methods I'm using exist. Let me also verify the post method signature accepts json keyword.

$ Bash
Check method signatures for HTTP methods
uv run python -c "import inspect; from vultr import Vultr; print(inspect.signature(Vultr.post)); print(inspect.signature(Vultr.get)); print(inspect.signature(Vultr.delete))"
(self, url: str, **kwargs) -> Any
(self, url: str, params: Optional[dict] = None) -> Any
(self, url: str) -> None
Thinking

Let me check how the post method handles kwargs internally - it might pass them to requests directly.

$ Bash
Check post method implementation
uv run python -c "import inspect; from vultr import Vultr; print(inspect.getsource(Vultr.post))"
    def post(self, url: str, **kwargs) -> Any:
        """
        POST Data
        :param url: Request URL. Example `/instances`
        :param kwargs: Request Data Keyword Arguments
        :return: Response Data
        :raises: `VultrException`
        """
        return self._req("post", f"{self.url}/{url.lstrip('/')}", kwargs)
$ Bash
Check _req method to understand how kwargs are passed
uv run python -c "import inspect; from vultr import Vultr; print(inspect.getsource(Vultr._req))"
    def _req(self, method, url, data: Any = None, params: Optional[dict] = None) -> Any:
        r = self._session.request(method, url, params=params, json=data, timeout=10)
        if not r.ok:
            raise VultrException(r)
        if r.status_code == 204:
            return None
        if r.headers.get("content-type") == "application/json":
            return r.json()
        return r.text

The post method passes kwargs as json=data to requests. So my DNS post call needs to pass the data as keyword arguments, not as json=. Let me fix that.

✏️ Edit vultr.py
/home/david/projects/stirlingbridge/machine/machine/providers/vultr.py
        try:
            result = self._client.post(
                f"/domains/{zone}/records",
                json={"type": record_type, "name": name, "data": data, "ttl": ttl},
            )
+
        try:
            result = self._client.post(
                f"/domains/{zone}/records",
                type=record_type, name=name, data=data, ttl=ttl,
            )
The file /home/david/projects/stirlingbridge/machine/machine/providers/vultr.py has been updated successfully.
$ Bash
Lint the new vultr provider
uv run ruff check machine/providers/vultr.py 2>&1
All checks passed!

Let me also verify the full module loads correctly.

$ Bash
Verify full module import chain works
uv run python -c "from machine.providers.vultr import VultrProvider; print('VultrProvider loaded OK'); from machine.providers import KNOWN_PROVIDERS, create_provider; print('Known providers:', KNOWN_PROVIDERS)"
VultrProvider loaded OK
Known providers: ['digital-ocean', 'vultr']

Everything works. Let me also quickly check if there are any tests I should look at.

======================= 29 passed, 6 deselected in 4.02s =======================

All 29 tests pass. Here's a summary of what was implemented:

Changes

New file: machine/providers/vultr.py — Full Vultr provider implementing the CloudProvider interface: - Instance management: create_vm, get_vm, destroy_vm, list_vms using the vultr-python library - SSH keys: get_ssh_key, list_ssh_keys — looks up keys by name (Vultr uses IDs internally) - DNS: create_dns_record, delete_dns_record, get_dns_records, list_domains using the library's generic HTTP methods (DNS isn't wrapped by the library) - Validation: validate_region against known Vultr regions, validate_image checks that the OS ID is numeric (Vultr uses numeric os_id values, not slug strings like DO) - User data: Automatically base64-encodes user_data as required by Vultr's API (unlike DO which accepts raw strings)

Modified: machine/providers/__init__.py — Added "vultr" to KNOWN_PROVIDERS and the factory dispatch.

Modified: pyproject.toml — Added vultr-python>=0.1.5 dependency.

Config format

A Vultr config would look like:

vultr:
  api-key: ${VULTR_API_KEY}
  ssh-key: my-key-name
  machine-size: vc2-1c-1gb
  image: 2136          # Vultr uses numeric os_id (e.g. 2136 = Ubuntu 24.04)
  region: ewr
  dns-zone: example.com  # optional
machines:
  web-server:
    new-user-name: deploy

Thank you. Can you update the docs with the details on how to use and configure vultr?

}
     1→# machine
     2→CLI utility to create and manage VMs
     3→
     4→Initially supports only DigitalOcean using the [python-digitalocean](https://github.com/koalalorenzo/python-digitalocean) module.
     5→
     6→## Prerequisites
     7→
     8→This project uses [uv](https://docs.astral.sh/uv/) for dependency management and builds.
     9→
    10→Install uv:
    11→```
    12→curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh
    13→```
    14→
    15→## Development Setup
    16→
    17→```
    18→uv sync
    19→```
    20→
    21→This creates a `.venv` virtual environment and installs all dependencies (including dev tools like ruff).
    22→
    23→Run the CLI during development:
    24→```
    25→uv run machine --help
    26→```
    27→
    28→Run the linter:
    29→```
    30→uv run ruff check machine/
    31→```
    32→
    33→## Build
    34→
    35→Build a self-contained executable using [shiv](https://github.com/linkedin/shiv):
    36→```
    37→./sh/build-package.sh
    38→```
    39→
    40→This produces `build/machine`, a single-file Python zipapp.
    41→
    42→## Install
    43→
    44→Install directly from the GitHub repository using uv:
    45→```
    46→uv tool install git+https://github.com/stirlingbridge/machine.git
    47→```
    48→
    49→Alternatively, download the `machine` binary from the [releases page](https://github.com/stirlingbridge/machine/releases), make it executable, and place it on your PATH:
    50→```
    51→chmod +x machine
    52→sudo mv machine /usr/local/bin/
    53→```
    54→
    55→## Usage
    56→
    57→### Config File
    58→Access token and other settings configured in the file `~/.machine/config.yml` :
    59→```yaml
    60→digital-ocean:
    61→    access-token: dop_v1_xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
    62→    ssh-key: my-ssh-key-name
    63→    dns-zone: example.com
    64→    machine-size: s-4vcpu-8gb
    65→    image: ubuntu-22-04-x64
    66→    region: nyc3
    67→    project: Infrastructure
    68→
    69→machines:
    70→    example:
    71→        new-user-name: alice
    72→        script-dir: /opt/setup-scripts
    73→        script-url: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/example/setup-machine.sh
    74→        script-path: /opt/setup-scripts/setup-machine.sh
    75→        script-args: "-y"
    76→```
    77→
    78→#### Config Reference
    79→
    80→**digital-ocean section:**
    81→
    82→| Key | Required | Description |
    83→|-----|----------|-------------|
    84→| `access-token` | Yes | DigitalOcean API access token |
    85→| `ssh-key` | Yes | Name of the SSH key in your DigitalOcean account to use for new machines |
    86→| `dns-zone` | No | DNS zone for automatic DNS record creation/deletion |
    87→| `machine-size` | Yes | Default machine size slug (e.g. `s-4vcpu-8gb`) |
    88→| `image` | Yes | Default image name (e.g. `ubuntu-22-04-x64`) |
    89→| `region` | Yes | Default region code (e.g. `nyc3`) |
    90→| `project` | No | DigitalOcean project name to assign new machines to |
    91→
    92→**machines section:**
    93→
    94→Each entry under `machines:` defines a machine type that can be referenced with `create --type`:
    95→
    96→| Key | Required | Description |
    97→|-----|----------|-------------|
    98→| `new-user-name` | Yes | Username for the non-root user created on the machine |
    99→| `script-url` | No | URL to download an initialization script from |
   100→| `script-dir` | No | Directory to store the initialization script |
   101→| `script-path` | No | Full path for the initialization script |
   102→| `script-args` | No | Arguments passed to the initialization script (supports variable expansion) |
   103→
   104→If `script-url`, `script-dir`, and `script-path` are all provided, the script is downloaded and executed as the new user during cloud-init. The following variables are available for expansion in `script-args`:
   105→
   106→- `$MACHINE_SCRIPT_URL` — URL of the initialization script
   107→- `$MACHINE_SCRIPT_DIR` — directory path for the script
   108→- `$MACHINE_FQDN` — fully qualified domain name of the machine (if DNS is configured)
   109→
   110→#### Environment Variable Substitution
   111→
   112→Config values support environment variable substitution using `${VAR}` syntax, similar to Docker Compose files. This is useful for keeping secrets like API tokens out of the config file.
   113→
   114→Supported forms:
   115→- `${VAR}` — substitutes the value of `VAR`; errors if the variable is not set
   116→- `${VAR:-default}` — substitutes the value of `VAR`, or `default` if the variable is not set
   117→
   118→Example:
   119→```yaml
   120→digital-ocean:
   121→    access-token: ${DO_API_TOKEN}
   122→    ssh-key: ${SSH_KEY_NAME:-my-ssh-key}
   123→    dns-zone: example.com
   124→    machine-size: ${MACHINE_SIZE:-s-4vcpu-8gb}
   125→    image: ubuntu-22-04-x64
   126→    region: ${DO_REGION:-nyc3}
   127→    project: Infrastructure
   128→```
   129→
   130→Substitution is applied to all string values throughout the config file, including the `machines` section.
   131→
   132→#### Advanced Machine Setup
   133→
   134→Examples of advanced machine setup scripts can be found in [the machine-provisioning repository](https://github.com/bozemanpass/machine-provisioning).
   135→
   136→### Session Management
   137→
   138→Each invocation of `machine` uses a session ID (auto-generated and stored in `~/.machine/session-id.yml`). Machines are tagged with their session ID on creation. By default, `list`, `status`, `list-domain`, and `destroy` only operate on machines from the current session. Use the `--all` flag to include machines from other sessions or machines not created by this tool.
   139→
   140→The session ID can be overridden with the global `--session-id` option.
   141→
   142→### Automatic Tagging
   143→
   144→Machines created by this tool are automatically tagged with:
   145→
   146→- `machine:created` — identifies the machine as created by this tool
   147→- `machine:type:<type-name>` — the machine type from the config
   148→- `machine:session:<session-id>` — the session that created the machine
   149→
   150→### Global Options
   151→```

### Config File
Access token and other settings configured in the file `~/.machine/config.yml`. The config file contains a provider section (either `digital-ocean` or `vultr`) and a `machines` section.

If only one provider section is present, it is auto-detected. If multiple provider sections exist, add a `provider:` key to select one explicitly:

```yaml
provider: vultr
```

#### DigitalOcean Config

```yaml
digital-ocean:
    access-token: dop_v1_xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

    ssh-key: my-ssh-key-name
    dns-zone: example.com
    machine-size: vc2-1c-1gb
    image: 2136
    region: ewr

machines:
    example:
        new-user-name: alice
        script-dir: /opt/setup-scripts
        script-url: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/example/setup-machine.sh

#### Environment Variable Substitution

Config values support environment variable substitution using `${VAR}` syntax, similar to Docker Compose files. This is useful for keeping secrets like API tokens out of the config file.

Supported forms:
- `${VAR}` — substitutes the value of `VAR`; errors if the variable is not set
- `${VAR:-default}` — substitutes the value of `VAR`, or `default` if the variable is not set

Example:
```yaml
digital-ocean:
    access-token: ${DO_API_TOKEN}
    ssh-key: ${SSH_KEY_NAME:-my-ssh-key}
    dns-zone: example.com
    machine-size: ${MACHINE_SIZE:-s-4vcpu-8gb}
    image: ubuntu-22-04-x64
    region: ${DO_REGION:-nyc3}
    project: Infrastructure
```

Substitution is applied to all string values throughout the config file, including the `machines` section.

When `--update-dns` is enabled (the default), the command waits for the droplet's IP address and creates an A record in the configured `dns-zone` with a 5-minute TTL.

When `--initialize` is enabled (the default), a cloud-config user-data payload is generated that creates a non-root user with sudo access, installs the SSH key, and optionally downloads and runs an initialization script.

If a `project` is configured, the machine is automatically assigned to that DigitalOcean project.

All tests pass. Here's a summary of the documentation updates:

README.md: - Updated intro to list both DigitalOcean and Vultr as supported platforms - Split the config section into separate DigitalOcean Config and Vultr Config subsections, each with their own example YAML and reference table - Added explanation of provider auto-detection and the explicit provider: key for multi-provider configs - Added Vultr-specific notes (numeric os_id for images, no projects support, Vultr region codes) - Added a Vultr example to the environment variable substitution section - Updated command descriptions to use provider-agnostic language ("instance" instead of "droplet", "provider" instead of "DigitalOcean")

CLAUDE.md: - Updated project description to mention both providers - Updated tech stack to list both provider libraries - Updated project structure to show provider.py and providers/ directory with both implementations

Thanks, that looks great. Can you also look into the end to end tests? Those may adapt ok to the Vultr provider, but they would at least need to be run against both providers now, with some way to specify which provider and a way to facilitate that second test run in CI.

Thinking

Now I have a clear picture. The e2e tests are fully DO-specific — config generation, env vars, defaults, and naming all assume DigitalOcean. Let me also check if there's a separate CI workflow for tests.

Good, there's already an e2e CI workflow. Now I have the full picture. Here's my plan:

  1. Refactor test_e2e.py — Make it provider-agnostic with an E2E_PROVIDER env var that selects provider-specific config/defaults
  2. Update e2e-test.yml — Use a matrix strategy to run against both providers, each with its own secrets/vars
  3. Update test_input_validation.py — The test_missing_digital_ocean_section test should now expect "vultr" in the available providers list

Let me start with the e2e test refactor.

Thinking

I can see a few issues to address:

  1. _extract_droplet_id checks candidate.isdigit() — Vultr uses UUID IDs, not numeric
  2. _write_config is hardcoded to produce digital-ocean: config with access-token
  3. Skip logic only checks for DO-specific env vars
  4. CI workflow needs a matrix for both providers

Let me also check if the E2E_PROJECT is used in the tests directly, since Vultr doesn't support projects.

Grep
{
  "pattern": "E2E_PROJECT|project",
  "path": "/home/david/projects/stirlingbridge/machine/tests/test_e2e.py",
  "output_mode": "content"
}
12:    E2E_PROJECT     - DO project name to assign droplets to
38:E2E_PROJECT = os.environ.get("E2E_PROJECT")
49:if not E2E_PROJECT:
50:    _MISSING.append("E2E_PROJECT")
79:    cfg["project"] = E2E_PROJECT

E2E_PROJECT is only used in the config — it's not directly asserted in any test. Good, that means it's just a config key that the create command uses optionally.

Now let me implement all the changes.

======================= 29 passed, 6 deselected in 3.86s =======================

Let me also run the linter on the changed files.

$ Bash
Run ruff linter on all source
uv run ruff check tests/ machine/ 2>&1
All checks passed!

All 29 tests pass and lint is clean. Here's a summary of the changes:

test_e2e.py

  • Provider selection via E2E_PROVIDER env var (defaults to "digital-ocean", also accepts "vultr")
  • Provider-specific defaults — each provider gets appropriate region/image/size defaults (e.g. nyc1/ubuntu-24-04-x64 for DO, ewr/2136 for Vultr)
  • Provider-specific config generation_write_config() now produces the correct YAML structure for each provider (access-token vs api-key, project only for DO)
  • Provider-specific credential checks — skip logic requires E2E_DO_TOKEN + E2E_PROJECT for DO, E2E_VULTR_API_KEY for Vultr
  • Fixed _extract_instance_id() — no longer requires isdigit(), so Vultr's UUID-style IDs are handled
  • Renamed throughout — "droplet" to "instance" in fixture names, test class, test methods, comments, and docstrings

e2e-test.yml

  • Matrix strategy with provider: [digital-ocean, vultr] — runs e2e tests for both providers in parallel
  • fail-fast: false so one provider's failure doesn't cancel the other
  • Passes E2E_PROVIDER to select the provider, along with provider-specific secrets (E2E_DO_TOKEN, E2E_VULTR_API_KEY)
  • Job name shows the provider: E2E Tests (digital-ocean), E2E Tests (vultr)

test_input_validation.py

  • Renamed test_missing_digital_ocean_section to test_missing_provider_section
  • Now asserts both "digital-ocean" and "vultr" appear in the error message (since both are known providers)

CI setup needed

To enable the Vultr e2e tests in CI, the following need to be added to the e2e GitHub environment: - Secret: E2E_VULTR_API_KEY - Variables: E2E_SSH_KEY and E2E_DNS_ZONE (may already be shared with DO if the same key/zone are used, otherwise provider-specific vars would be needed)

Thanks. Can you update the test config details in tests/E2E.md please?

  "file_path": "/home/david/projects/stirlingbridge/machine/tests/E2E.md"
}
     1→# End-to-End Tests
     2→
     3→These tests verify that `machine` can create and manage real VMs on DigitalOcean, including DNS record lifecycle. They are **not** run as part of the normal test suite due to cost and runtime.
     4→
     5→## Prerequisites
     6→
     7→You need a DigitalOcean account with:
     8→
     9→- An API token with the required permissions (see below)
    10→- An SSH key registered in the account
    11→- A DNS zone managed by DigitalOcean (e.g. `test.example.com`)
    12→
    13→### API Token Permissions
    14→
    15→The DigitalOcean API token must be a **custom token** with these scopes enabled:
    16→
    17→| Scope | Access | Used for |
    18→|---|---|---|
    19→| `droplet` | read, create, delete | Creating, listing, and destroying test droplets |
    20→| `ssh_key` | read | Looking up SSH keys by name |
    21→| `domain` | read, create, delete | Creating and removing DNS A records |
    22→| `project` | read, update | Listing projects and assigning droplets to them |
    23→| `tag` | read, create | Tagging droplets by type and custom tags |
    24→
    25→A full-access read/write token will also work, but a scoped token is recommended.
    26→
    27→## Environment Variables
    28→
    29→| Variable | Required | Description |
    30→|---|---|---|
    31→| `E2E_DO_TOKEN` | Yes | DigitalOcean API token |
    32→| `E2E_SSH_KEY` | Yes | Name of an SSH key in your DO account |
    33→| `E2E_DNS_ZONE` | Yes | DO-managed DNS zone for test records |
    34→| `E2E_PROJECT` | Yes | DO project to assign droplets to |
    35→| `E2E_REGION` | No | Region slug (default: `nyc1`) |
    36→| `E2E_IMAGE` | No | Image slug (default: `ubuntu-24-04-x64`) |
    37→| `E2E_SIZE` | No | Droplet size (default: `s-1vcpu-512mb-10gb`) |
    38→
    39→## Running
    40→
    41→```bash
    42→# Set credentials
    43→export E2E_DO_TOKEN="dop_v1_..."
    44→export E2E_SSH_KEY="my-ssh-key"
    45→export E2E_DNS_ZONE="test.example.com"
    46→export E2E_PROJECT="my-project"
    47→
    48→# Run e2e tests
    49→make test-e2e
    50→
    51→# Or directly
    52→uv run pytest tests/test_e2e.py -v -m e2e
    53→```
    54→
    55→The normal `make test` (and CI) will **skip** these tests automatically.
    56→
    57→## What's Tested
    58→
    59→- **Droplet lifecycle** — create, list, destroy, verify removal
    60→- **DNS lifecycle** — create with `--update-dns`, verify A record, destroy with `--delete-dns`, verify record removal
    61→- **Cloud-init initialization** — create with `--type`, verify type tag
    62→- **Custom tags** — create with `--tag`, verify tag filtering
    63→
    64→## Cleanup
    65→
    66→Each test cleans up after itself. A safety fixture also destroys any leftover droplets if a test fails mid-run. All test droplets use unique names prefixed with `e2etest-` so they are easy to identify.

# End-to-End Tests

These tests verify that `machine` can create and manage real VMs on a cloud provider, including DNS record lifecycle. They are **not** run as part of the normal test suite due to cost and runtime.

Tests can be run against **DigitalOcean** or **Vultr** by setting the `E2E_PROVIDER` environment variable.

## Prerequisites

### DigitalOcean

You need a DigitalOcean account with:

- An API token with the required permissions (see below)
- An SSH key registered in the account
- A DNS zone managed by DigitalOcean (e.g. `test.example.com`)
- A project to assign droplets to

#### API Token Permissions

The DigitalOcean API token must be a **custom token** with these scopes enabled:

| Scope | Access | Used for |
|---|---|---|
| `droplet` | read, create, delete | Creating, listing, and destroying test droplets |
| `ssh_key` | read | Looking up SSH keys by name |
| `domain` | read, create, delete | Creating and removing DNS A records |
| `project` | read, update | Listing projects and assigning droplets to them |
| `tag` | read, create | Tagging droplets by type and custom tags |

A full-access read/write token will also work, but a scoped token is recommended.

### Vultr

You need a Vultr account with:

- An API key (from https://my.vultr.com/settings/#settingsapi)
- An SSH key registered in the account
- A DNS zone managed by Vultr (e.g. `test.example.com`)

The Vultr API key has full access by default; there is no scope configuration.

## Environment Variables

### Provider Selection

| Variable | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `E2E_PROVIDER` | No | Provider to test: `digital-ocean` (default) or `vultr` |

### Common (all providers)

| Variable | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `E2E_SSH_KEY` | Yes | Name of an SSH key registered with the provider |
| `E2E_DNS_ZONE` | Yes | Provider-managed DNS zone for test records |
| `E2E_REGION` | No | Region slug (default: provider-specific, see below) |
| `E2E_IMAGE` | No | Image slug or ID (default: provider-specific, see below) |
| `E2E_SIZE` | No | Instance size (default: provider-specific, see below) |

### DigitalOcean

| Variable | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `E2E_DO_TOKEN` | Yes | DigitalOcean API token |
| `E2E_PROJECT` | Yes | DO project to assign droplets to |

Defaults: region `nyc1`, image `ubuntu-24-04-x64`, size `s-1vcpu-512mb-10gb`

### Vultr

| Variable | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `E2E_VULTR_API_KEY` | Yes | Vultr API key |

Defaults: region `ewr`, image `2136` (Ubuntu 24.04), size `vc2-1c-1gb`

## Running

### DigitalOcean

```bash
export E2E_DO_TOKEN="dop_v1_..."
export E2E_SSH_KEY="my-ssh-key"
export E2E_DNS_ZONE="test.example.com"
export E2E_PROJECT="my-project"

make test-e2e
# Or directly
uv run pytest tests/test_e2e.py -v -m e2e
```

### Vultr

```bash
export E2E_PROVIDER="vultr"
export E2E_VULTR_API_KEY="..."
export E2E_SSH_KEY="my-ssh-key"
export E2E_DNS_ZONE="test.example.com"

make test-e2e
# Or directly
uv run pytest tests/test_e2e.py -v -m e2e
```

The normal `make test` (and CI) will **skip** these tests automatically.

## CI

The GitHub Actions workflow (`.github/workflows/e2e-test.yml`) runs e2e tests for both providers in parallel using a matrix strategy. Each provider run requires its own credentials configured in the `e2e` GitHub environment:

| Provider | Secrets | Variables |
|---|---|---|
| DigitalOcean | `E2E_DO_TOKEN` | `E2E_SSH_KEY`, `E2E_DNS_ZONE`, `E2E_PROJECT` |
| Vultr | `E2E_VULTR_API_KEY` | `E2E_SSH_KEY`, `E2E_DNS_ZONE` |

If credentials for a provider are not configured, that provider's test run will be skipped automatically.

## What's Tested

- **Instance lifecycle** — create, list, destroy
- **DNS lifecycle** — create with `--update-dns`, verify A record, destroy with `--delete-dns`
- **Cloud-init initialization** — create with `--type`, verify type tag
- **Custom tags** — create with `--tag`, verify tag filtering

## Cleanup

Each test cleans up after itself. All test instances use unique names prefixed with `e2etest-` so they are easy to identify.

## Cost

Tests use the smallest available instance size and destroy VMs immediately after verification, so cost is minimal.
The file /home/david/projects/stirlingbridge/machine/tests/E2E.md has been updated successfully.

Done. The updated tests/E2E.md now covers both providers with separate sections for prerequisites, credentials, and running instructions, plus a new CI section explaining the matrix setup and what secrets/variables need to be configured per provider.
