Survey an RKE2 community cluster against an embedded compatibility registry of 20 stack components and produce a verdict for upgrade-readiness, drift-review, and version-skew questions. Components: RKE2, Rancher, Harvester, Cilium, Tetragon, cert-manager, Kyverno, KEDA, Argo CD, Harbor, Traefik, Rook, Ceph, OpenEBS, GitLab, ECK, Zalando postgres-operator, Grafana Mimir, NVIDIA GPU Operator, rancher-logging. Works air-gapped — compatibility data lives in `references/compat/`. Surveys run via…

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

# k8s-components-checker

Survey an RKE2 community cluster, cross-reference against the embedded
compatibility registry, produce a verdict. Community editions only. Air-gapped
at use time — `references/` carries everything needed and the survey runs fully
offline. Air-gap-complete is a **floor, not a ceiling**: when the workstation has
internet + `gh`, grounding every specific version the verdict cites is mandatory
(House Rule #8 · `references/version-verification.md`) — the registry's sifted
patch numbers are methodology, not trusted release facts.

**Surveys, never upgrades.** This skill produces a verdict; it does not move a
cluster. When the verdict says a component must move, hand off to the skill that
owns that ladder: **`rancher-upgrade`** (Rancher + the downstream RKE2/K3s
fleet, same `k8s` plugin), **`harvester-upgrade`** (Harvester HCI, `harvester`
plugin), **`mimir-upgrade`** (Grafana Mimir, `observability` plugin). Those
skills read this one's compatibility registry as input and treat it as the
matrix authority — that split is deliberate, so keep upgrade procedure out of
here and compatibility claims out of them.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add air-gapped/skills/k8s-components-checker@sha256:5098427d51dd0016

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261027.11d31eb, 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.
