chaos

chaos is a command for Claude Code from nitinjain999/platform-skills. It costs 97 tokens per session (2,092 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A command set for Chaos Engineering, the practice of deliberately causing controlled failures to test whether a system survives them. It uses Litmus Chaos or Chaos Mesh to test Kubernetes workloads.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to install a chaos-testing tool, simulate deleted pods, lost network access, CPU pressure, or drained nodes, schedule recurring tests, run GameDays, debug results, and summarize what happened.
Why use it?
It provides a structured way to find weaknesses before real failures do, with health checks and runbooks around each experiment. It also helps diagnose experiments that fail or become stuck.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

chaos scanned grade A with 1 finding against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 10d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Design, run, and debug Chaos Engineering experiments on Kubernetes.


Interactive Wizard (fires when no arguments are provided)

When invoked with no arguments, ask before proceeding:

Q1 — Mode?

What do you need?
  1. install    — install Litmus Chaos or Chaos Mesh via Helm
  2. experiment — design a fault injection experiment
  3. schedule   — wrap an experiment in a recurring schedule
  4. gameday    — run a structured GameDay experiment
  5. debug      — diagnose a failed or stuck experiment
  6. report     — summarize results after an experiment completes

Enter 1–6 or mode name:

After collecting the mode, ask one follow-up:

  • install: Which tool? Litmus Chaos (recommended default) or Chaos Mesh (network/IO faults)?
  • experiment: Describe the workload to target — name, namespace, fault type (pod-delete / network-loss / cpu-stress / node-drain):
  • schedule: Provide the experiment YAML or describe the experiment to wrap in a schedule:
  • gameday: State the steady-state hypothesis — what metric or probe proves the system is healthy?
  • debug: Describe the symptom or paste the ChaosEngine/ChaosResult status:
  • report: Paste the ChaosResult output or describe the experiment that ran:

Then proceed into the relevant mode below.


Mode: install

Install Litmus Chaos or Chaos Mesh via Helm.

Steps:

  1. Choose the tool:

    • Litmus Chaos: CNCF graduated, ChaosCenter UI, broad experiment library → recommended default
    • Chaos Mesh: CNCF incubating, fine-grained NetworkChaos, IOChaos → choose for network partitions or I/O faults
  2. Install Litmus Chaos:

    helm repo add litmuschaos https://litmuschaos.github.io/litmus-helm/
    helm repo update
    helm upgrade --install chaos litmuschaos/litmus \
      --namespace litmus \
      --create-namespace \
      --version 3.9.0 \
      -f examples/chaos/litmus-install-values.yaml
    
  3. Install Chaos Mesh:

    helm repo add chaos-mesh https://charts.chaos-mesh.org
    helm repo update
    helm upgrade --install chaos-mesh chaos-mesh/chaos-mesh \
      --namespace chaos-mesh \
      --create-namespace \
      --version 2.7.0 \
      -f examples/chaos/chaos-mesh-install-values.yaml

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

chaos is a command published in the GitHub repository nitinjain999/platform-skills (41 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 97 tokens to every session and 2,092 once invoked, about $0.0005 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 1 finding (makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
