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…
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
# 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
mdr add gke-labs/kube-agents/gke-manifest-generation@sha256:fad4971dddc5f919The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261020.7723f3c, 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.
