Close API gaps for dev to test to prod deployment process

Need well documented and supported process for building skills / collections on a dev environment, then test, then propagate to two separate production clusters for HA DR.
We seem close to that with export/import APIs that can be driven by CI/CD pipelines, but to allow full end to end automation incl automatic creation of instances, assistants, etc on prod systems there still are some gaps.Need sufficient APIs for end to end automation of deploying agents / new versions of agents incl skills and collections to multiple prod environments.
