Installs or upgrades a third-party Helm chart (cert-manager, ingress-nginx, external-dns, an operator) on a cluster by adding it to the GitOps repository in the form the repository's reconciler already syncs: an Argo CD Application, a Flux HelmRelease, a Config Sync RootSync, or kustomize helmCharts. Opens one pull request through submit-suggestion, pins the chart version, and carries or names everything the chart needs outside the cluster. Never runs helm. Use when a request asks to install…
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
# Third-Party Helm Charts Through GitOps A chart reaches a cluster from this agent one way: as a declaration in the GitOps repository that the customer's reconciler renders and applies after a human merges it. This skill writes that declaration and opens the pull request through **submit-suggestion**. It never runs `helm`. The shell sandbox holds no cluster credential and has no route to a chart repository, so `helm install`, `helm upgrade`, `helm template` and `helm pull` all fail there, and asking for a token to hand to `helm` is refused by the credential broker. Those refusals are the design, not obstacles to route around. ## When to Use - **Install a chart** on a cluster: "install cert-manager on prod-east", "add external-dns to the staging clusters". - **Upgrade or reconfigure** a chart the repository already declares: a new version, a changed value. - **A packaged third-party component** whose documented install is a Helm chart, even when the user did not say "Helm". ## When NOT to Use - **kube-agents itself**: an operator installs and upgrades it with the installer (`upgrade.sh`), which this agent does not run. …

How to install
mdr add gke-labs/kube-agents/gitops-helm-chart@sha256:2edda2a2d2444856The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261022.49a9292, 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.
