Aidp Workspace Admin

aidp-workspace-admin — instance & workspace provisioning

Provision and inspect AIDP DataLake instances and workspaces via the AIDP control-plane. Covers the IMFA-style private-workspace setup (workspace attached to a customer VCN/subnet via advanced fields). No MCP server and no ai-data-engineer-agent repo are required.

When to use

• Create / list / get a workspace or DataLake instance.
• Stand up a new AIDP environment (incl. private-network workspace).

Engine — official aidp CLI (control-plane)

Preferred engine is the official Oracle aidp CLI; oci raw-request is the fallback when the CLI isn't installed. Both hit the same data-plane REST API with the same auth — see references/aidp-cli-map.md for the command map and references/oci-raw-request.md for the base URL, auth ladder, async/pagination/etag conventions, and the no-fabrication gate.

All CLI calls take --instance-id <DATALAKE_OCID> --auth api_key --profile DEFAULT --region <r>. DataLake instance creation is OCI control-plane (heavier, IAM-governed, billable) — there is no data-plane aidp CLI command for it; use the oci ai-data-platform CLI shown below and gate it.

REST base: https://aidp.<region>.oci.oraclecloud.com/20240831/dataLakes/<DATALAKE_OCID>/…Auth: --profile DEFAULT (api_key) → on 401/403 fall back to --auth security_token --profile AIDP_SESSION

Read operations (safe)

List and inspect workspaces — LIVE-VERIFIED 200 on 20240831/dataLakes (GET /workspaces is the control-plane sanity call):

# CLI (preferred): list workspacesaidp workspace list --instance-id <DATALAKE_OCID> --auth api_key --profile DEFAULT --region us-ashburn-1# get one workspace: aidp workspace get --workspace-key <WS> …
# Fallback (no CLI installed): oci raw-requestoci raw-request --http-method GET \  --target-uri "https://aidp.us-ashburn-1.oci.oraclecloud.com/20240831/dataLakes/<DATALAKE_OCID>/workspaces" \  --profile DEFAULT

Create a workspace

Prefer aidp workspace create with the body fields; the REST fallback is POST /workspaces with the same JSON body. For a private-network workspace (attached to a customer VCN/subnet), include the networking fields (e.g. isPrivateNetworkEnabled, subnet/NSG OCIDs, freeformTags/definedTags, vectorDbId). Build the payload with the user's real OCIDs — never invent them; ask for the subnet/VCN OCIDs. Persist the body to .aidp/payloads/ and confirm first (references/payloads.md).

# CLI (preferred) — show the resolved body first, then create on confirmationaidp workspace create --display-name "…" --workspace-type "…" \  --instance-id <DATALAKE_OCID> --auth api_key --profile DEFAULT --region us-ashburn-1  # private-net: add --is-private-network-enabled true --subnet-id ocid1.subnet… (see `aidp help workspace`)
# Fallback (no CLI installed)oci raw-request --http-method POST \  --target-uri "https://aidp.us-ashburn-1.oci.oraclecloud.com/20240831/dataLakes/<DATALAKE_OCID>/workspaces" \  --request-body '{"displayName":"…","workspaceType":"…","isPrivateNetworkEnabled":true,"subnetId":"ocid1.subnet…"}' \  --request-headers '{"content-type":"application/json"}' \  --profile DEFAULT

The exact request body fields are UNVERIFIED in this env — confirm against a live 201/400 before asserting them as required, per the no-fabrication gate.

Create / delete a DataLake instance (guarded — OCI control-plane oci ai-data-platform)

Instance lifecycle is an OCI control-plane resource (IAM-governed, async via work-requests, billable; delete is destructive). It is not a data-plane aidp//dataLakes call — use the OCI CLI oci ai-data-platform family. Live-verified 2026-06-10 (this command provisioned aidp_agent_e2e → ACTIVE):

# CREATE — show the resolved args + confirm first (returns a work-request; poll to ACTIVE)oci ai-data-platform ai-data-platform create \  --compartment-id <COMPARTMENT_OCID> \  --display-name "my_aidp" \  --ai-data-platform-type prod \  --default-workspace-name "my_ws" \  --profile DEFAULT --region us-ashburn-1
# inspect / polloci ai-data-platform ai-data-platform get --ai-data-platform-id <OCID> --profile DEFAULT --region us-ashburn-1
# DELETE — destructive, confirm first (removes cluster + workspaces + all)oci ai-data-platform ai-data-platform delete --ai-data-platform-id <OCID> --profile DEFAULT --region us-ashburn-1

• Compartment: ask the user which compartment — never auto-derive it silently.
• IAM preflight (evidence-based, do not invent policy text): instance create/delete is authorized by OCI IAM in the target compartment. If create returns NotAuthorized/404, the calling principal lacks manage rights on the AI Data Platform resource-family there — have the tenancy admin confirm/add the required policy (per OCI AIDP docs); don't assert a specific policy statement yourself.
• Async: create/delete return a work request — poll oci ai-data-platform work-request get (or list work-requests) until terminal, then confirm with … get.

Guardrails

• Destructive/provisioning actions are gated: show the resolved payload, confirm with the user, and never create or delete on a shared/live environment without an explicit go-ahead.
• Networking itself (creating the VCN/subnet/NAT/Service-GW, ACL whitelists) is out of scope — that's OCI tooling. This skill only attaches a workspace to existing network resources.
• Never print OCIDs back in logs beyond what's needed; never hardcode them into committed files.
