```
# Describe a compute resource asset with a default project
runai compute describe compute-large

# Describe a compute resource asset in a specific project
runai compute describe compute-large -p <project_name>

# Describe a compute resource asset with specific output format
runai compute describe compute-large -o json
```

## Options

```
  -h, --help             help for describe
  -o, --output string    Output format: table, json, or yaml. Default is table. (default "table")
