service — Claude Code skill for Railway service management

Q: How do I install service in Claude Code?

Run `npx claude-code-templates@latest --skill railway/service`. Another installation method is `npx skills add davila7/claude-code-templates --skill service -a claude-code`.

Q: Can service create a service from a GitHub repository?

Create an empty service with `railway-new`, then configure its repository source with `railway-environment`. The repository should not be passed directly during service creation.

Check Railway service and deployment status, edit service details, change the linked service, or create one from a Docker image.

What service does

The skill uses Railway CLI to inspect a service’s current state and deployment history. It can also rename a service, change its icon, switch the service linked to the current directory, or create a service from a Docker image through the GraphQL API. For services built from local code, use the separate railway-new skill.

Service creation needs a project ID, and environment setup is handled through railway-environment. For a GitHub source, create an empty service first, then configure the repository through that skill. Railway CLI is required; the Docker image must be accessible from its registry or creation will fail.

What it helps with

check the current deployment state
inspect recent deployment history
rename a Railway service
change a service icon
create a service from a Docker image

Example prompts for the agent

Check the Railway service status and show recent deployments.
Rename the current service to api-staging.
Create a Railway service from the Docker image nginx:latest.
