Use this skill whenever the user needs to manage vSphere Kubernetes Service (VKS) — Supervisor clusters, vSphere Namespaces, and TKC cluster lifecycle. Directly handles: check VKS compatibility, create/delete namespaces, create/scale/upgrade/delete TKC clusters, get kubeconfig, check Harbor registry. Always use this skill for "create Kubernetes cluster", "scale workers", "upgrade K8s version", "create namespace", "get kubeconfig", or any VKS/TKC task. Do NOT use for vanilla VM operations…

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add vmware-skills/vmware-vks/vmware-vks@sha256:f1f5417d24079840

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261101.a6d5bf3, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
