Create a new easy-db-lab kit (kit.yaml + K8s manifests, metrics, dashboards, docs) for any database or workload. Detects internal (the easy-db-lab repo) vs external (your own project) mode, researches the workload, grounds the work in a per-kit TODO.md, drafts for review, and writes deliverable files only on explicit approval. Use when adding a new database or workload kit to easy-db-lab or to your own kit source.

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.

What the file says

# create-kit

Author a new easy-db-lab **kit** — a self-contained package (`kit.yaml` + manifest
templates + dashboards + docs) that installs, starts, stops, and observes a database or
workload on an easy-db-lab cluster. No Kotlin is required; kits register dynamically from
their `kit.yaml`.

This skill works for **both**:
- **Internal** kit development — inside the easy-db-lab repository (`src/main/resources/.../kits/`).
- **External** kit development — a kit that lives in your own project and is registered with
  `easy-db-lab kit source add`.

The skill detects which mode applies and adapts paths and the schema source accordingly.

## Input

The argument after `/create-kit` is the workload name (e.g. "ScyllaDB", "Kafka", "Redis").
An optional second argument is the output path. If no workload name is given, ask for one.

---

## Step 0 — Detect mode and resolve paths

Check whether the current directory is the easy-db-lab repository:

```bash
test -d src/main/resources/com/rustyrazorblade/easydblab/kits && echo INTERNAL || echo EXTERNAL
```

**Internal mode** (the path exists):

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add rustyrazorblade/skills/create-kit@sha256:518fad237e43a602

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261012.407e8ae, 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.
