cluster

cluster is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from zilliztech/zilliz-plugin. It costs 28 tokens per session (972 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A skill for managing Zilliz Cloud clusters, which are hosted services for storing and searching vector data.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to create, list, describe, delete, suspend, resume, or modify Zilliz Cloud clusters and related Vector Lake instances.
Why use it?
It provides the commands needed to change cluster state without manually using the service’s control interface.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

cluster scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 5d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 131 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Prerequisites

  1. CLI installed and logged in (see setup skill).
  2. No cluster context required -- these are control-plane operations.

Commands Reference

Create a Cluster

# Serverless cluster
zilliz cluster create \
  --name <cluster-name> \
  --type serverless \
  --project-id <project-id> \
  --region <region-id>

# Free-tier cluster
zilliz cluster create \
  --name <cluster-name> \
  --type free \
  --project-id <project-id> \
  --region <region-id>

# Dedicated cluster
zilliz cluster create \
  --name <cluster-name> \
  --type dedicated \
  --project-id <project-id> \
  --region <region-id> \
  --cu-type <Performance-optimized|Capacity-optimized> \
  --cu-size <cu-size>

To find available project IDs, cloud providers, and regions:

zilliz project list
zilliz cluster providers
zilliz cluster regions --cloud-id <aws|gcp|azure>

Create a Vector Lake instance

A Vector Lake (sometimes called a "VectorLake" cluster) is the storage layer that on-demand clusters attach to (see the on-demand-cluster skill). It is created via a hand-written subcommand calling POST /v2/clusters/createVectorLake:

zilliz cluster create-vectorlake \
  --project-id <project-id> \
  --region-id <region-id> \
  [--session-ttl <duration>] \      # idle auto-suspend TTL, min 60s
  [--max-query-node-cu <integer>] \
  [--max-query-node-replicas <integer>]

After the Vector Lake is RUNNING, attach a query workload with zilliz on-demand-cluster create --project-id <id> --region-id <region> --cu-size <n> --cluster-name <name>.

List Clusters

zilliz cluster list
# Optional: --region-id <filter-by-region-id>
# Pagination: --page-size <n> --page <n>
# Fetch all pages: --all

Describe a Cluster

zilliz cluster describe --cluster-id <cluster-id>

Modify a Cluster

zilliz cluster modify --cluster-id <cluster-id-to-modify>
# Optional: --cu-size <number-of-compute-units>, --replica <number-of-replicas>
# Or use raw JSON: --body '{"cuSize": 2, "replica": 2}'

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

cluster is a skill published in the GitHub repository zilliztech/zilliz-plugin (3 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 28 tokens to every session and 972 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
