# ZevCloud Documentation

> ZevCloud is a deployment platform for web applications, WordPress, static sites, databases, and domain registration. Naira-native billing, no per-seat pricing. Designed for the African (and specifically Nigerian) developer market.

This file follows the [llms.txt convention](https://llmstxt.org/). It is a curated index of every doc page; follow the `.md` link beside any title to grab that page's clean markdown body. Drop the whole site into one context window with `https://docs.zevcloud.net/llms-full.txt`, or fetch any single page's markdown by appending `.md` to its URL (e.g. `https://docs.zevcloud.net/guide/quickstart.md`).

## Key facts an agent should know

- API base URL: `https://api.zevcloud.net/v1`
- API authentication: `Authorization: Bearer sk_live_<key>` (see `/api/auth`)
- API key scopes: `read` ⊂ `deploy` ⊂ `full`. `deploy` is recommended for AI agents (can ship updates, cannot delete projects or change billing).
- Some routes are *human-only* and reject API keys outright: managing API keys themselves, deleting the team, billing, domain purchases, opening the database GUI. See `/api/auth` for the full list.
- API keys are bound to their creator. If the creator leaves the team, the key is auto-revoked.
- CLI: `npm install -g @zevcloud/cli`, then `zevcloud login` with a generated API key.
