What does this agent skill do?
Category: service
Application Load Balancer (ALB)
Use this skill for end-to-end ALB operations via local Python scripts and OpenAPI-compatible workflows.
Validation
mkdir -p output/alicloud-network-alb
for f in skills/network/slb/alicloud-network-alb/scripts/*.py; do
python3 -m py_compile "$f"
done
echo "py_compile_ok" > output/alicloud-network-alb/validate.txt
Pass criteria: command exits 0 and output/alicloud-network-alb/validate.txt is generated.
Output And Evidence
- Save all command outputs, request parameters, and API responses under
output/alicloud-network-alb/. - For change operations, keep before/after snapshots plus health-check results.
Prerequisites
pip install alibabacloud_alb20200616 alibabacloud_tea_openapi alibabacloud_credentials
Credential priority:
ALICLOUD_ACCESS_KEY_ID/ALICLOUD_ACCESS_KEY_SECRET- Optional STS token:
ALICLOUD_SECURITY_TOKEN - Shared config:
~/.alibabacloud/credentials
Workflow
- Confirm region, VPC context, target ALB resource IDs, and expected change window.
- Run inventory scripts first (
list_*,get_*) and save baseline outputs. - Apply one change at a time (listener/server-group/rule/lb lifecycle).
- Wait for async completion when needed (
scripts/wait_for_job.py). - Validate final state with health checks and state re-query.
Top task playbooks
1) Read-only inventory and quick diagnosis
python3 scripts/list_instances.py --region cn-hangzhou --json --output output/alicloud-network-alb/instances.json
python3 scripts/list_server_groups.py --region cn-hangzhou --json --output output/alicloud-network-alb/server-groups.json
python3 scripts/list_acls.py --region cn-hangzhou --json --output output/alicloud-network-alb/acls.json
2) Inspect one ALB and listener details
python3 scripts/get_instance_status.py --region cn-hangzhou --lb-id alb-xxx --view detail --output output/alicloud-network-alb/lb-detail.json
python3 scripts/list_listeners.py --region cn-hangzhou --lb-id alb-xxx --json --output output/alicloud-network-alb/listeners.json
python3 scripts/get_listener_attribute.py --region cn-hangzhou --listener-id lsn-xxx --output output/alicloud-network-alb/listener-attr.json
3) Validate traffic path health
python3 scripts/check_health_status.py --region cn-hangzhou --listener-id lsn-xxx --output output/alicloud-network-alb/health.json
python3 scripts/list_server_group_servers.py --region cn-hangzhou --server-group-id sgp-xxx --output output/alicloud-network-alb/server-group-members.json
4) Controlled change flow (example: update listener)
python3 scripts/update_listener.py --region cn-hangzhou --listener-id lsn-xxx --request-timeout 120 --output output/alicloud-network-alb/update-listener.json
python3 scripts/check_health_status.py --region cn-hangzhou --listener-id lsn-xxx --output output/alicloud-network-alb/health-after-update.json
