## When it is useful

Create/update/delete Serverless projects + Hosted deployments, traffic filters.

## The Catch

Elastic Cloud API only (not self-managed). Depends on HOLD cloud-onboarding for CLI context. Cloud is 14-day trial (no CC) then PAYG — not a $0 forever hatch. Do not reprint VCU/Hosted rates.
