Alicloud Compute Ecs Test

This is a minimal smoke test for Alibaba Cloud's ECS service. It hits two endpoints: DescribeRegions and DescribeInstances with a page size of 1, logs the results, and confirms your credentials work. You'd use this when setting up a new Alicloud account or debugging auth issues before building more complex ECS automation. It's part of a broader alicloud-skills collection by cinience that has 391 GitHub stars. The test expects either valid data or an empty list, not permission errors, so it's basically a quick sanity check that your access keys and region config are correct. Not meant for production monitoring, just a dev tool to verify API connectivity.
