Writes and reviews Kubernetes pod specs against Bret Fisher's production floor (github.com/BretFisher/podspec) for security context, user namespaces, service account tokens, probes, resources, and graceful shutdown. Use it when the user creates or edits a Deployment, StatefulSet, DaemonSet, Job, CronJob, or Pod, changes a Helm chart or Kustomize base that renders one, asks to review or harden a workload for production, or asks why a pod spec setting matters, even if they only say…
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
# Kubernetes pod spec floor Every pod template you write or review meets the **floor**: the settings in [pod.yaml](references/pod.yaml), an exact copy of <https://github.com/BretFisher/podspec/blob/main/pod.yaml>. Read pod.yaml at the start of each task. Its field layout and its inline comments are the shape you copy, and the table below is the summary with the exceptions. ## Working style 1. Find the pod template. Deployment, StatefulSet, DaemonSet, ReplicaSet, and Job: `spec.template.spec`. CronJob: `spec.jobTemplate.spec.template.spec`. Pod: `spec`. A Job, CronJob, DaemonSet, StatefulSet, Helm chart, or Kustomize base → read [workload-kinds.md](references/workload-kinds.md) first. 2. Facts are yours to find: the Dockerfile `USER` and `EXPOSE`, the health endpoints in the code, the conventions of the repo's other manifests. Read them before you write a value. 3. Values only the user knows are decisions: memory and CPU numbers, a UID when the image has no numeric `USER`, a probe path the code does not show, a livenessProbe, a grace period other than 600. Ask for them in one bundled question. When the user is unavailable or says to go ahead, write the pod.yaml …

How to install
mdr add bretfisher/skills/k8s-podspec-pro@sha256:062aa02665ef61f7The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261107.73c7ca5, 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.
