kubernetes-skill SKILL.md skillA

kubernetes-skill from lukasniessen/kubernetes-skill is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned
mdr add lukasniessen/kubernetes-skill/kubernetes-skill@git:20260502.b7d3250

Pins git:20260502.b7d3250 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Prevent Kubernetes hallucinations by diagnosing and fixing failure modes: insecure workload defaults, resource starvation, network exposure, privilege sprawl, fragile rollouts, and API drift. Use when generating, reviewing, refactoring, or migrating manifests, Helm charts, Kustomize overlays, cluster policies, and platform-specific Kubernetes work for EKS, GKE, AKS, OpenShift, GitOps controllers, or observability stacks.

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

# KubeShark: Failure-Mode Workflow for Kubernetes

Run this workflow top to bottom.

## 1) Capture execution context

Record before writing manifests:
- cluster version (e.g. 1.30, 1.31) and distribution (EKS, GKE, AKS, k3s, vanilla)
- target namespace and environment criticality (dev/staging/prod)
- workload type (Deployment, StatefulSet, Job, CronJob, DaemonSet)
- deployment method (raw YAML, Helm, Kustomize, operator-managed)
- policy enforcement (Pod Security Admission level, Kyverno, OPA/Gatekeeper)
- cloud provider and CNI (affects networking, storage classes, load balancers)
- platform controllers/add-ons (GitOps, observability, ingress, service mesh, autoscaling)

If unknown, state assumptions explicitly.

## 2) Diagnose likely failure mode(s)

Select one or more based on user intent and risk:
- insecure workload defaults: missing security contexts, PSS violations, host access
- resource starvation: missing requests/limits, no PDB, scheduling chaos
- network exposure: flat networking, missing policies, wrong Service types, DNS issues
- privilege sprawl: overly permissive RBAC, leaked secrets, excess ServiceAccount rights

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add lukasniessen/kubernetes-skill/kubernetes-skill@sha256:4aba65a8bd69a822

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260502.b7d3250, 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.
