Frontend & SSH Workflows

DevTools is not just an API surface. Your account includes frontend-facing platform workflows and resource-level SSH operations so teams can ship and debug from one operational workspace.

Frontend Features
  • DevTools profile and publishing surfaces.
  • Resource detail pages with operational context.
  • Cloud logs and health signals visible in one UI.
SSH Features
  • Store and manage SSH keys per resource workflow.
  • Connect directly for deployment and diagnostics.
  • Pair shell output with resource log timeline events.
Typical SSH Session
# Values from DevTools Resource Details
ssh -i ~/.ssh/devtools_key user@resource-host

# Run diagnostics
uname -a
systemctl status my-service
journalctl -u my-service -n 100 --no-pager
# ALSHIVAL_RESOURCE should be copied from DevTools Resource Details -> Resource URL
curl -X POST \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "X-API-Key: $ALSHIVAL_API_KEY" \
  -d '{
    "logs": [
      {
        "level": "info",
        "message": "manual ssh maintenance complete",
        "ts": "2026-02-20T00:00:00+00:00",
        "extra": {"actor": "ops", "channel": "ssh"}
      }
    ]
  }' \
  "${ALSHIVAL_RESOURCE%/}/logs/"
Best Practices
  • Use dedicated SSH keys per environment.
  • Avoid shared root credentials across team workflows.
  • Log critical SSH maintenance actions to cloud timeline.
  • Keep frontend release notes and operational logs linked to the same resource context.
