This skill should be used for Helm chart work in either direction. Authoring: creating charts, templates and _helpers.tpl, values.yaml patterns, Chart.yaml, values.schema.json, helm-docs, library charts, chart CI/CD and signing. Consuming: carrying a values file across chart versions with a three-way merge, and why a chart accepted a key that never took effect. Covers Helm 4 (SSA, WASM, OCI digest), OpenShift compatibility, CRD management, and production templates.
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
# Helm Charts Create, test, secure and publish Helm charts — and carry a values file across upgrades of the ones you consume. Covers Helm 4 (November 2025), OCI distribution, OpenShift compatibility, and production patterns from Bitnami, Cilium, cert-manager, and ArgoCD. **Scope.** Authoring a chart: all of the below. Consuming one: only the values file — merge semantics (Gotcha #5) and carrying yours across a chart bump (`references/values-porting.md`). Both are the same machinery either way. Route elsewhere: delivering a chart through GitOps → **`argo-cd-apps`**; making one survive OpenShift SCCs and arbitrary UIDs → **`openshift-app`**; checking a chart version against the rest of the stack → **`k8s-components-checker`**; "what does value X do in chart Y" → that chart's own documentation. ## Quick Decision Guide | Task | Go to | |------|-------| | Create a new chart from scratch | § Chart Scaffold below | | Structure values.yaml, helpers, labels | `references/chart-structure.md` | | Harden security (SecurityContext, RBAC, NetworkPolicy) | `references/security.md` | | Sign and verify charts (cosign, OCI) | `references/security.md` § Supply Chain | …

How to install
mdr add air-gapped/skills/helm@sha256:1efffdac51105fc0The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261027.46aa093, 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.
