workload-identity skillA

workload-identity is agent-read markdown (skill) from d-padmanabhan/agent-engineering-handbook: Workload identity playbook (SPIFFE/SPIRE, cloud IAM, OIDC federation). Workflows for picking SPIFFE vs cloud IAM, deploying SPIRE on EKS, federating trust domains, bridging to AWS/GCP/Azure via OIDC, and migrating off long-lived workload secrets. Use when designing or hardening service-to-service auth for k8s, multi-cloud, or AI agents..

Indexed from public GitHub and served as immutable, content-addressed versions. Install it pinned to an exact SHA-256 with the mdr CLI, and every file is verified against the hash recorded here before it reaches your agent. The deterministic audit below grades the latest version, and the same file always earns the same grade.

How to install

Latest version
mdr add d-padmanabhan/agent-engineering-handbook/workload-identity@git:20260819.d23bb73
Exact content
mdr add d-padmanabhan/agent-engineering-handbook/workload-identity@sha256:4bcac9ae47c97e27

Pin to a label to follow the author's releases, or to a sha256 to freeze the exact bytes forever. Either way the resolved hash is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install reproduces it on any machine.
