At a glance

Deploy an immutable service or batch worker to a Vast.ai instance with template, health, artifact, rollback, and cleanup controls.

  • Works in 6 steps: Freeze the deployment manifest → Validate outside production → Verify readiness → …
  • Shipping an instance-based workload rather than Serverless
  • SKILL.md covers Overview, Prerequisites, Instructions and Authentication, plus 5 more sections
  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md

What it does

Vastai Deploy Integration is an agent skill from jeremylongshore/tons-of-skills-marketplace. Deploy an immutable service or batch worker to a Vast.ai instance with template, health, artifact, rollback, and cleanup controls. Use when shipping an instance-based workload rather than Serverless. Trigger with: "deploy to a Vast.ai instance", "release a Vast.ai template", "roll back a Vast.ai deployment".

Its SKILL.md is about 1.1k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 2 other files, including reference files (for example `references/official-docs.md`). Compatibility notes: Requires an immutable image, Vast.ai template or creation manifest, scoped deployment key, health contract, and rollback artifact.

It sits in DevOps & Cloud, covering Deployment and Serverless. The repository describes itself as: Model-agnostic agent-skills platform with a harness-free canonical layer, verified adapters, and the ccpi package manager. Explore at tonsofskills.com. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Shipping an instance-based workload rather than Serverless
  • With: deploy to a Vast.ai instance
  • Release a Vast.ai template
  • Roll back a Vast.ai deployment

Example prompts

  • “deploy to a Vast.ai instance”
  • “release a Vast.ai template”
  • “roll back a Vast.ai deployment”
  • “/vastai-deploy-integration”

Requirements

  • Compatibility (from SKILL.md): Requires an immutable image, Vast.ai template or creation manifest, scoped deployment key, health contract, and rollback artifact.
  • Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Read, Grep, Write, Edit

Workflow steps

6 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Freeze the deployment manifest
  2. Validate outside production
  3. Verify readiness
  4. Promote deliberately
  5. Observe the release
  6. Roll back or close

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit cfae287. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves these tools, so the agent can use them without asking each time:

    • Read
    • Grep
    • Write
    • Edit

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):

    • docs.vast.ai

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

  • Compatibility

    Requires an immutable image, Vast.ai template or creation manifest, scoped deployment key, health contract, and rollback artifact.

    From compatibility in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

Context cost

Vastai Deploy Integration loads about 1.1k tokens when it runs, and up to ~1.4k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 84 tokens; SKILL.md has 427 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~84
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.1k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~1.4k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Immutable Vast.ai Instance Deployment

Overview

Make the deployment reproducible outside the console. Bind release bytes to an immutable image and versioned template hash, launch a canary under policy, validate service and GPU health, then promote or destroy.

Prerequisites

  • Release commit, image digest, template hash, ports, environment names, and startup contract
  • Offer policy, health checks, artifact/checkpoint destinations, and maximum rollout time
  • Last-known-good image/template plus rollback and teardown owners

Instructions

Step 1: Freeze the deployment manifest

Record all non-secret template settings, image digest, on-start behavior, exposed ports, disk, label, and required GPU/host constraints.

Step 2: Validate outside production

Build and scan the image, run local contract tests, and launch a disposable canary from the exact template hash.

Step 3: Verify readiness

Bound state polling, resolve current endpoints, check process and GPU health, and execute a representative request or batch assertion.

Step 4: Promote deliberately

Create or update the production instance only after canary acceptance. Persist resource IDs and externalize important data before traffic or work begins.

Step 5: Observe the release

Track state, logs, request/job outcome, cost, disk, and checkpoint health through the acceptance window.

Step 6: Roll back or close

On regression, route work to the last-known-good template or recreate from it; copy evidence and destroy rejected or superseded instances.

Authentication

Give deployment automation only search, template, and instance permissions it needs. Keep registry, model, and storage secrets in approved runtime variables and out of template descriptions and logs.

Tool Discipline

Use Read and Grep to inspect manifests, configuration, provider output, and existing tests before proposing a mutation. Use Write or Edit only for the approved plan, implementation, test, or redacted receipt; do not create, update, destroy, or fund Vast.ai resources without explicit operator approval.

Output

  • Versioned deployment manifest and immutable identities
  • Canary and production health/acceptance evidence
  • Promotion, rollback, and superseded-resource cleanup receipt

Return release, image/template identities, offer and instance IDs, health result, acceptance window, decision, and cleanup status.

Examples

A model API is launched from a pinned template hash and image digest, passes GPU and request canaries, then replaces the previous instance; the rejected candidate is destroyed and the old template remains recorded for rollback.

Error Handling

FailureResponse
Template resolves different bytesStop and pin a new immutable hash before provisioning.
Health passes but workload assertion failsReject the release and retain the last-known-good service.
Rollback data is only on local diskCopy it externally before destructive recovery if the incident permits.
Superseded instance remainsTreat it as a cost leak and complete or escalate teardown.
