DigitalOcean API Skill

Name: Digitalocean OpenClaw Plugin
Author: rexlunae

Control DigitalOcean infrastructure programmatically: droplets, DNS, databases, storage, networking.

Authentication

API token required. Get one from: https://cloud.digitalocean.com/account/api/tokens

Store in ~/.config/digitalocean/token (just the token, no newline):

mkdir -p ~/.config/digitalocean
echo -n "YOUR_API_TOKEN" > ~/.config/digitalocean/token
chmod 600 ~/.config/digitalocean/token

Quick Reference

Droplets (VMs)

# List all droplets
python3 scripts/digitalocean.py droplets list

# Get droplet details
python3 scripts/digitalocean.py droplets get <droplet_id>

# Create droplet
python3 scripts/digitalocean.py droplets create <name> --region nyc1 --size s-1vcpu-1gb --image ubuntu-24-04-x64

# Power actions
python3 scripts/digitalocean.py droplets power-on <droplet_id>
python3 scripts/digitalocean.py droplets power-off <droplet_id>
python3 scripts/digitalocean.py droplets reboot <droplet_id>

# Resize droplet
python3 scripts/digitalocean.py droplets resize <droplet_id> --size s-2vcpu-4gb

# Snapshot
python3 scripts/digitalocean.py droplets snapshot <droplet_id> --name "backup-2024"

# Destroy droplet
python3 scripts/digitalocean.py droplets destroy <droplet_id>

DNS Management

# List domains
python3 scripts/digitalocean.py dns list

# Get domain records
python3 scripts/digitalocean.py dns records <domain>

# Add record
python3 scripts/digitalocean.py dns add <domain> --type A --name www --data 1.2.3.4 --ttl 300

# Update record
python3 scripts/digitalocean.py dns update <domain> <record_id> --data 5.6.7.8

# Delete record
python3 scripts/digitalocean.py dns delete <domain> <record_id>

# Add domain
python3 scripts/digitalocean.py dns create <domain>

Firewalls

# List firewalls
python3 scripts/digitalocean.py firewalls list

# Create firewall
python3 scripts/digitalocean.py firewalls create <name> --inbound tcp:22:0.0.0.0/0 --inbound tcp:80:0.0.0.0/0 --inbound tcp:443:0.0.0.0/0

# Add droplet to firewall
python3 scripts/digitalocean.py firewalls add-droplet <firewall_id> <droplet_id>

Spaces (Object Storage)

# List spaces (requires spaces key)
python3 scripts/digitalocean.py spaces list

# Create space
python3 scripts/digitalocean.py spaces create <name> --region nyc3

Databases

# List database clusters
python3 scripts/digitalocean.py databases list

# Get database details
python3 scripts/digitalocean.py databases get <db_id>

Account & Billing

# Account info
python3 scripts/digitalocean.py account

# Balance
python3 scripts/digitalocean.py billing balance

# Billing history
python3 scripts/digitalocean.py billing history

SSH Keys

# List SSH keys
python3 scripts/digitalocean.py ssh-keys list

# Add SSH key
python3 scripts/digitalocean.py ssh-keys add <name> --key "ssh-ed25519 AAAA..."

Images & Snapshots

# List available images
python3 scripts/digitalocean.py images list

# List your snapshots
python3 scripts/digitalocean.py images snapshots

# Delete snapshot
python3 scripts/digitalocean.py images delete <image_id>

Regions & Sizes

# List regions
python3 scripts/digitalocean.py regions

# List droplet sizes
python3 scripts/digitalocean.py sizes

DNS Record Types

Supported record types:

A — IPv4 address
AAAA — IPv6 address
CNAME — Canonical name (alias)
MX — Mail exchange (requires priority)
TXT — Text record
NS — Nameserver
SRV — Service record
CAA — Certificate Authority Authorization

Common Workflows

Deploy a New Server

# 1. Create droplet
python3 scripts/digitalocean.py droplets create myserver --region nyc1 --size s-1vcpu-2gb --image ubuntu-24-04-x64 --ssh-keys <key_id>

# 2. Get IP address
python3 scripts/digitalocean.py droplets get <droplet_id>

# 3. Add DNS record
python3 scripts/digitalocean.py dns add mydomain.com --type A --name @ --data <ip>

# 4. Set up firewall
python3 scripts/digitalocean.py firewalls create web-server --inbound tcp:22:0.0.0.0/0 --inbound tcp:80:0.0.0.0/0 --inbound tcp:443:0.0.0.0/0
python3 scripts/digitalocean.py firewalls add-droplet <fw_id> <droplet_id>

Migrate DNS to DigitalOcean

# 1. Add domain
python3 scripts/digitalocean.py dns create example.com

# 2. Add records
python3 scripts/digitalocean.py dns add example.com --type A --name @ --data 1.2.3.4
python3 scripts/digitalocean.py dns add example.com --type CNAME --name www --data example.com.

# 3. Update nameservers at registrar to:
#    ns1.digitalocean.com
#    ns2.digitalocean.com
#    ns3.digitalocean.com

Direct API Access

TOKEN=$(cat ~/.config/digitalocean/token)
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" \
     -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
     https://api.digitalocean.com/v2/droplets
