Problem
The CLI exposes get datacenters (regions) but no way to list:
- Available products (V-codes) for a given region
- Pricing per product, per region, per term length
Today users pick a --productId and -r for cntb create instance based on external info (the static product list page or my.contabo.com), then get billed post-creation. This makes scripted, region-comparison provisioning hard.
Related pain: #41 (user charged unexpectedly because region defaults to EU silently).
Proposed
cntb get products — list active product IDs with vCPU/RAM/NVMe/bandwidth.cntb get prices --productId <V-code> [--region <slug>] [--period <1|3|6|12>] → returns price per region per term, including any region surcharge.- Or: extend
cntb get datacenters --withPricing to fold pricing into the region listing.
Why it matters
Lets users automate "pick the cheapest region for this workload" or compare deployments before committing — closing the loop the CLI already starts with get datacenters.
