Use this skill when reviewing cert-manager PKI configuration for Kubernetes clusters. Trigger when the user asks about Issuer or ClusterIssuer scope, CertificateRequestPolicy coverage, certificate SAN or duration risks, trust-manager bundle distribution, SPIFFE mesh CA integration, cert-manager webhook health, or cloud CA authentication method.
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
# cert-manager Issuer Trust Review ## Purpose Review cert-manager Issuer and ClusterIssuer scope, CertificateRequestPolicy (approver-policy) authorization coverage, certificate SAN wildcard and duration risks, trust-manager CA bundle distribution blast radius, SPIFFE/service-mesh CA integration, and cloud-backed CA authentication method. cert-manager's security posture depends on whether namespace-scoped request authorization exists — without CertificateRequestPolicy, any namespace can issue a certificate for any DNS name from a shared ClusterIssuer. ## Lean operating rules - Prefer live evidence (`kubectl get clusterissuer,issuer -A -o yaml`, `kubectl get certificaterequestpolicy -o yaml`, `kubectl get certificate -A -o yaml`) when the active client exposes it; otherwise fall back to official cert-manager documentation and sanitized YAML from the user. - Separate confirmed facts from inference. If CertificateRequestPolicy deployment, certificate health, or trust-manager bundle scope was not directly queried, say so. - Treat no CertificateRequestPolicy deployed cluster-wide as a critical finding — any cert request in any namespace is auto-approved against any ClusterIssuer. …

How to install
mdr add vincentchuwaichow/vanguard-frontier-agentic/cert-manager-issuer-trust-review@sha256:e6215396dcf6e201The line at the top of this page pins the label v0.1.0, 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.
