Use this skill when discovering and comparing cloud-native technologies from the CNCF Landscape for an architecture or engineering decision. Query the live public Landscape API, filter candidates by capability, category, maturity, license, and repository signals, then produce an evidence-backed shortlist with trade-offs, unknowns, and validation steps. Do not use it as a substitute for project documentation, production-readiness testing, legal review, or general architecture methodology.

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

# CNCF Landscape technology selection

Use this skill to turn a capability or architecture problem into a defensible shortlist of cloud-native technologies. The Landscape is a discovery and evidence source, not a recommendation engine.

## When to load

Load this skill when someone:

- asks what projects or tools exist for a capability that is not in the current stack;
- wants to compare CNCF projects by maturity, category, repository signals, license, or ecosystem evidence;
- asks for a shortlist for an architecture decision, proof of concept, technology radar entry, or build-versus-buy discussion;
- needs to discover a CNCF project before reading its documentation or source repository.

## When not to use

- For operating or configuring a named technology, load its operational skill or use its authoritative documentation.
- For the general adoption/hold governance process, load [technology-radar](../technology-radar/SKILL.md) and use this skill only for candidate discovery and evidence.
- For broad platform architecture, data architecture, or API design without a Landscape discovery question, use the matching methodology skill.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add magnus919/agent-skills/cncf-landscape@sha256:71ec7de561229634

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260823.ba7f05f, 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.
