# Banana.dev Management
Analyze Banana.dev model deployments, inference calls, GPU usage, and build status.
## Phase 1: Discovery
```bash
#!/bin/bash
TOKEN="${BANANA_API_KEY}"
BASE="https://api.banana.dev/v1"
AUTH=(-H "Authorization: Bearer ${TOKEN}" -H "Content-Type: application/json")
echo "=== Models Inventory ==="
curl -s "${BASE}/models" "${AUTH[@]}" \
| jq -r '.models[] | "\(.name)\t\(.model_key[0:12])\t\(.status)\t\(.gpu_type)\t\(.created_at[0:10])"' \
| column -t | head -20
echo ""
echo "=== Deployments ==="
curl -s "${BASE}/deployments" "${AUTH[@]}" \
| jq -r '.deployments[] | "\(.model_name)\t\(.version[0:8])\t\(.status)\t\(.gpu)\t\(.replicas)\t\(.updated_at[0:19])"' \
| column -t | head -20
echo ""
echo "=== GPU Allocation ==="
curl -s "${BASE}/models" "${AUTH[@]}" \
| jq -r '.models[] | "\(.name)\t\(.gpu_type)\t\(.min_replicas)-\(.max_replicas) replicas\t\(.cold_start_timeout)s cold start"' \

## Phase 2: Analysis
```bash

echo ""
echo "=== Scaling Events ==="

## Safety Rules
- **Read-only**: Only use GET endpoints against the Banana.dev API
- **Never deploy, scale, or delete** models without confirmation
- **API keys**: Never output API key or model key values
- **Rate limits**: Respect API rate limits to avoid throttling
## Anti-Hallucination Rules
1. **NEVER assume resource names** — always discover via CLI/API in Phase 1 before referencing in Phase 2.
2. **NEVER fabricate metric names or dimensions** — verify against the service documentation or `--help` output.
3. **NEVER mix CLI commands between service versions** — confirm which version/API you are targeting.
4. **ALWAYS use the discovery → verify → analyze chain** — every resource referenced must have been discovered first.
5. **ALWAYS handle empty results gracefully** — an empty response is valid data, not an error to retry.
## Counter-Rationalizations
| Shortcut | Counter | Why |
|----------|---------|-----|
| "I'll skip discovery and check known resources" | Always run Phase 1 discovery first | Resource names change, new resources appear — assumed names cause errors |
| "The user only asked for a quick check" | Follow the full discovery → analysis flow | Quick checks miss critical issues; structured analysis catches silent failures |
| "Default configuration is probably fine" | Audit configuration explicitly | Defaults often leave logging, security, and optimization features disabled |
| "Metrics aren't needed for this" | Always check relevant metrics when available | API/CLI responses show current state; metrics reveal trends and intermittent issues |
| "I don't have access to that" | Try the command and report the actual error | Assumed permission failures prevent useful investigation; actual errors are informative |
