create bucket

Spin up an S3 bucket that isn't publicly wide open by accident.

awsutopia create bucket <name> [--public-site] [--yes] [--dry-run] [--json] [--profile] [--region]

What you'll get

A bucket with sane defaults:

• Private (Block Public Access on)
• SSE-S3 encryption (AES256)
• Versioning enabled
• Tags: utopia:project, utopia:env

Plus a static storage cost hint in the output — rough order of magnitude, not live Cost Explorer. See Costs.

awsutopia create bucket my-app-dev-assets
awsutopia list

Idempotency

Re-running for a bucket already tagged for the current project re-applies the safety config and succeeds. Untagged or other-project buckets are refused (exit 5).

Public escape hatch

Need a public static site bucket? Be explicit:

awsutopia create bucket my-site --public-site --yes

Requires confirmation unless --yes. Decline → no-op, exit 5.

Next

Upload an object, then bucket share for a temporary URL. When you're done: destroy bucket.
