Use when the user is ADOPTING ConfigHub — they have existing live K8s + GitOps state (an existing cluster, live Argo ApplicationSets, Flux Kustomizations, or secondarily a git repo of manifests) and want to PREVIEW what a ConfigHub import would look like before committing. Natural phrasing: "show me the proposed units before I apply", "I want to adopt ConfigHub for this app", "what would ConfigHub see in our cluster?", "what would ConfigHub see in our argocd setup?…

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

# prepare-for-confighub

The adoption-preview loop. The user has existing live K8s + GitOps state and wants to KNOW what a ConfigHub import would produce **before** committing. Start from the live cluster when possible; use local repo parsing only when the manifest repository itself is under review. This skill is the **preview** flow — every verb is read-only, and `import apply` (the mutating write) is **explicitly out of band**. The user runs that themselves after reviewing the proposal.

## When to use

Explicit phrasings:

- "Show me the proposed units before I apply"
- "I want to adopt ConfigHub for this app — what would it look like?"
- "What would ConfigHub see in this live cluster?"
- "What would ConfigHub see in our Argo CD setup?"
- "Preview what would land in ConfigHub if I imported this repo"
- "Walk me through ConfigHub adoption for `payments-api`"
- "Compare ApplicationSet generator import vs a raw `--git-path` import for this repo"

Implicit intents:

- The user is **before** ConfigHub adoption, not in steady state
- The user wants **reviewable** output, not a live mutation
- The user is comparing options ("what if I use ApplicationSet vs raw YAML import?")

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add confighub/cub-scout/prepare-for-confighub@sha256:a398ad3baaf6963b

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260926.4c4b67c, 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.
