Orchestrate cross-cluster workload rebalancing using the kanban board with the validation-then-declare pattern. Use when fleet utilization shows one cluster overutilized and another with headroom and a workload should move.
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
# Workload Rebalancing Skill (validation-then-declare) When live cluster utilization — checked via the read-only `gke` MCP / `kubectl top` on each cluster — shows a cluster **overutilized / under pressure** and another with **headroom**, you may relocate a workload. You act as an **orchestrator**: cluster agents _validate_ feasibility (read-only); **you** _declare_ the change as a single GitOps PR; **KCC** reconciles the actual move. Never issue imperative start/stop. ## When to use vs. do-it-yourself Delegating is optional. Use this fan-out when you want per-cluster local validation and a single aggregated decision. For a trivial single-cluster change, act directly. ## The card graph (fan-out validation → decide on your own card) Resolve each cluster's profile name first with the `get_cluster_profile_name(project, cluster, location)` tool, and assign a card only to a profile it reports as existing (for a cluster with none, validate it yourself — `SOUL.md` §6 step 1), then: …

How to install
mdr add gke-labs/kube-agents/workload-rebalancing@sha256:275b3f8291feb1b0The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260925.a5b42b3, 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.
