gke-manifest-generation skillA

gke-manifest-generation is agent-read markdown (skill) from gke-labs/kube-agents: Generates and updates secure, production-ready Kubernetes YAML manifests optimized for GKE Autopilot and GKE Standard clusters. Use when creating or modifying GKE deployment manifests, configuring container security contexts, setting CPU/memory resource limits, defining readiness/liveness/startup probes, mounting secrets and volumes, configuring GKE Gateway API routes, targeting Spot VMs, or deploying AI model inference workloads (vLLM, TGI, Gemma). Don't use for live cluster operations, pod tro.

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.

What the file says

# GKE Manifest Generation Skill

This skill provides guidelines, tooling integration, and templates to translate
natural language descriptions or application code changes into secure,
compliant, and cost-effective Kubernetes YAML manifests optimized for both GKE
Autopilot and GKE Standard clusters.

## Core Rules & Verification

When generating or updating YAML manifests, you **must** strictly adhere to the
following rules:

### 1. Namespace & Resource Isolation

-   **Explicit Namespace**: Always declare `namespace: {namespace}` explicitly
    in the metadata of every resource (Deployments, Services, ConfigMaps,
    Secrets, PVCs, Roles, bindings). Map it to the namespace configured in your
    active `SETTINGS.md`. Never omit the namespace.
-   **Dedicated ServiceAccount**: Avoid using the namespace's `default`
    ServiceAccount. Always create and reference a dedicated `ServiceAccount`
    (e.g., `checkout-sa`) for each microservice.

### 2. GKE Resource Tuning (Autopilot & Standard)

-   **Resources Requests & Limits**: Always specify CPU and Memory requests and
    limits for all containers.
    -   *GKE Autopilot*: Requests determine pod billing directly; requests and
…

How to install

Latest version
mdr add gke-labs/kube-agents/gke-manifest-generation@git:20260914.5646f35
Exact content
mdr add gke-labs/kube-agents/gke-manifest-generation@sha256:59e520cee83d12b3

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.
