At a glance
Base skill for the difyctl CLI: discover a Dify server's operations through help output and run them as commands, always with JSON output.
- Works in 4 steps: difyctl help --json: the map. Start here. → difyctl help --json: everything under… → difyctl help --json: search by plain… → …
- Running a Dify workflow or chat app from the command line
- SKILL.md covers Finding what the CLI can do, Running an operation, difyctl-only flags and Reading results, plus 4 more sections
- Needs DIFY_TOKEN
What it does
difyctl talks to a Dify server, and its business commands are not built in. The server publishes a catalog of operations and each one becomes a command found at run time, so IDs such as `run.console_app.chat`, typed as `difyctl run console_app chat`, must be looked up rather than assumed. The agent always passes `--json`, or sets `DIFY_OUTPUT=json`, so help text and errors come back as JSON. Four views under `help` cover the map, one namespace, a search by plain words that returns the top 20 entries plus a total, and a single descriptor with its input schema, examples and pinned values such as `workspace_id`.
Running an operation turns each top-level input field into a flag, with dashes for underscores. Scalars take a value, objects and lists of objects take a JSON literal or `@file.json`, and lists of scalars repeat the flag. The whole body can be sent with `--input` as inline JSON, a file or stdin, and field flags merge over it. `--all` adds operations the server marks internal. When you are not logged in or the server is unreachable, only the local commands appear, with a note on stderr.
When your agent uses it
- Running a Dify workflow or chat app from the command line
- Finding which operations a Dify server exposes
- Scripting Dify operations with JSON input from a file or stdin
Example prompts
- “Find the difyctl command for uploading a file to my Dify server and show its input schema.”
- “Run my Dify workflow app with these inputs and return the JSON result.”
- “List everything under the get namespace in difyctl.”
Requirements
- The `difyctl` CLI
- A reachable Dify server and a logged-in session
Workflow steps
4 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- difyctl help --json: the map. Start here.
- difyctl help --json: everything under one namespace (difyctl help get). The bare namespace, difyctl get --json, prints the same.
- difyctl help --json: search by plain words (difyctl help upload file), top 20 entries plus total. Widen the words when nothing fits.
- difyctl help --json: one descriptor, dotted or spaced id. For an operation: input (JSON Schema), bind, kind, examples and pins (values…
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit cecdb28. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
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
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names these keys or tokens, usually read from environment variables:
DIFY_TOKEN
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Dify Command Line with difyctl loads about 1.4k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 47 tokens; SKILL.md has 789 words of instructions outside code blocks.
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.
SKILL.md
Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 789 words (~1,395 tokens).
