Build a monetized app on Eliza Cloud

Use this skill when you need to build an app that takes a markup on every chat or inference call and credits the earnings back to your owner. Eliza Cloud already supports app registration, per-app API keys, container deploys, the appId-based auth and redirect flow, app-scoped chat endpoints, optional affiliate headers, exact app charge requests, x402 payment requests, payout redemptions, and creator-monetization plumbing — you do not need to invent any of these.

Read references/sdk-flow.md for the 6-step build flow with a self-contained code example. External references (all public):

• Implementation contract: use the Cloud SDK registration, same-origin OAuth proxy, /api/v1/messages forwarding, health check, and container-deploy flow described below. Do not substitute a legacy message route or a client-side owner key.
• SDK reference: @elizaos/cloud-sdk README — typed methods + helpers + auth.
• Human-readable recipe: packages/docs/cloud/monetized-apps.mdx — same loop, narrative form, with the schema fields explained.

Skill Pairing

Always pair this skill with eliza-cloud. This skill owns the new-app build-and-monetize flow; eliza-cloud owns the current Cloud backend surface, existing-app operations, app charge requests, x402 requests, affiliate earnings, payout redemptions, media/promotion, and parent-agent Cloud command details. Spawned coding agents should load or request both skills for Cloud app builds.
