gke-workload-troubleshooting skillA
gke-workload-troubleshooting is agent-read markdown (skill) from gke-labs/kube-agents: Diagnoses GKE workload failures (CrashLoopBackOff, OOMKilled, ImagePullBackOff, Pending, etc.) via logs and events. Use when pods fail to start or crash repeatedly. Don't use for GKE cluster infrastructure provisioning, node pool creation, or non-Kubernetes Google Cloud services..
Indexed from public GitHub and served as immutable, content-addressed versions. Install it pinned to an exact SHA-256 with the mdr CLI, and every file is verified against the hash recorded here before it reaches your agent. The deterministic audit below grades the latest version, and the same file always earns the same grade.
What the file says
# GKE Workload Troubleshooting Skill
Use this skill to systematically diagnose and resolve failures in application
workloads deployed in GKE clusters. This skill operates non-interactively and
enforces a read-only diagnostics boundary before proposing manifest or config
corrections.
## 🔍 Diagnostic Workflow
### Step 0: Non-Interactive Context Discovery & Time Window Definition
1. **Parameter Extraction**: Extract required context (`project_id`,
`cluster_name`, `cluster_location`, `workload_name`, `workload_namespace`)
non-interactively from the user prompt, active `SETTINGS.md`, or active
environment defaults:
- Default `workload_namespace` to `default` if omitted.
- Infer missing cluster parameters from active environment (`kubectl
config current-context` or `gcloud config get-value project`).
- Prioritize non-interactive context discovery from prompts and
environment defaults to ensure autonomous execution flow.
2. **Cluster Credentials & Fallback Mode**:
- Attempt credential fetch: `gcloud container clusters get-credentials
{cluster_name} --region/--zone {cluster_location}`

How to install
mdr add gke-labs/kube-agents/gke-workload-troubleshooting@git:20260904.e20318dmdr add gke-labs/kube-agents/gke-workload-troubleshooting@sha256:bc7f0dc718645c4bPin to a label to follow the author's releases, or to a sha256 to freeze the exact bytes forever. Either way the resolved hash is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install reproduces it on any machine.
