Resize an active Singularity Compute instance in place on its current provider. Use this route when you want to move an instance to a larger compatible plan without provisioning a second machine.

​
Behavior

  • Requires compute management auth (X-Auth-* or X-API-Key)
  • Does not create a new x402 or MPP payment challenge
  • Preserves the remaining prepaid dollar credit and recalculates expires_at for the new hourly rate
  • Keeps the instance on the same provider and same region

​
Provider rules

  • Vultr resizes are upgrade-only
  • DigitalOcean disk growth is irreversible and requires confirm_disk_resize: true
  • Expect downtime during the resize window
  • GET /compute/plans
  • GET /compute/instances/{id}
  • POST /compute/instances/{id}/extend

Path Parameters
