deploy-service SKILL.md skillA
deploy-service from stbenjam/skillsaw is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.
mdr add stbenjam/skillsaw/deploy-service@v2.1Pins v2.1 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Deploy a service to Kubernetes using Helm charts. Use when releasing a service.
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
# Deploy Service
Automates the deployment of microservices to Kubernetes clusters using
Helm charts and environment-specific value overrides.
## When to Use This Skill
Use when deploying a service to staging or production, or when updating
an existing deployment with new configuration.
## Implementation Steps
### Step 1: Validate Chart
Run `helm lint charts/` to verify the Helm chart is syntactically valid.
Check that all required values are defined in `values.yaml`:
- `image.repository`
- `image.tag`
- `replicaCount`
- `resources.limits.cpu`
- `resources.limits.memory`
### Step 2: Apply Configuration
Merge environment-specific values from `values-{env}.yaml` with the
base `values.yaml` file:
```bash
helm template my-service charts/ \
-f charts/values.yaml \
-f charts/values-$ENV.yaml \
--dry-run
```
Review the rendered manifest before applying.
### Step 3: Execute Deployment
Run `helm upgrade --install` with the merged configuration:
```bash
helm upgrade --install my-service charts/ \
-f charts/values.yaml \
-f charts/values-$ENV.yaml \
-n $NAMESPACE \
--wait --timeout 300s
```
### Step 4: Verify
…Read the whole file at its exact version.
How to install
mdr add stbenjam/skillsaw/deploy-service@sha256:bfb23d9298b4d3a4The line at the top of this page pins the label v2.1, 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.
