Zeabur Variables Management

Always use npx zeabur@latest to invoke Zeabur CLI. Never use zeabur directly or any other installation method. If npx is not available, install Node.js first.

Do not guess CLI syntax. Only create, update, delete, env, and list are valid subcommands. Subcommands like set or add do not exist and will silently fail with no error output.

Known Issues

1. Use --id not --name — name lookup is unreliable
2. ${VAR} gets empty — shell expands before CLI receives; use single quotes
3. variable env replaces ALL variables — it overwrites the entire variable set with the .env file contents; existing variables not in the file will be removed

Create Variables

Creates new variables. Errors if a key already exists — use update to change existing keys.
