GoDaddy CLI

Agent-first CLI for interacting with the GoDaddy Developer Platform.

Installation

macOS / Linux (and Git Bash / MSYS2 / Cygwin on Windows)

curl -fsSL https://github.com/godaddy/cli/releases/latest/download/install.sh | bash
gddy --version

Windows (PowerShell)

irm https://github.com/godaddy/cli/releases/latest/download/install.ps1 | iex
gddy --version

Both installers download, checksum-verify, and install the binary for your platform. If you'd rather install by hand, download the archives from the latest release and put the binary on your PATH.

Once installed, gddy update check / gddy update apply handles upgrades in place.

Agentic Skills

To install Claude Code skills for the gddy CLI, run the following:

claude plugin marketplace add godaddy/cli
claude plugin install gddy@godaddy

For other agents, install using the skills CLI.

npx skills add godaddy/cli --skill gddy --agent <agent>

Swap <agent> for whichever agent you use (claude-code, cursor, codex, windsurf, opencode, ...). Run npx skills add --help for the full list of supported agents.

Quickstart

gddy                              # environment/auth snapshot + full command tree
gddy auth login                   # opens a browser for OAuth
gddy domain available example.com # check if a domain is registerable
gddy domain list                  # list domains in your account

Most commands need authentication. You may be taken through an interactive login process if you are not currently logged in, if your login has expired, or if your last auth token needs additional permissions. Run gddy auth login to log in explicitly.

For non-interactive workflows, you can use a Personal Access Token (PAT) instead; store the PAT with gddy pat add or use it in a GDDY_PAT environment variable.

What you can do

Use gddy --help or gddy tree to get a comprehensive list of available commands. Top-level commands include:

• domain — list your domains, check availability, get suggestions, and register new ones
• dns — view and edit a domain's DNS records
• hosting
• email
• shopping

We're actively working to expand the CLI to cover additional GoDaddy products.

Developer Platform

The CLI also provides access to the GoDaddy Developer Platform for building apps that users of GoDaddy Commerce products can install to their stores.

• gddy platform app — create, configure, release, and deploy GoDaddy Platform apps
• gddy platform actions — discover the action contracts an app can declare
• gddy platform webhook — inspect webhook event types for app subscriptions
