What is helm-generator?

A generator for Helm charts, which package Kubernetes application templates and their configurable values.

Use it to create charts, generate templates, convert Kubernetes manifests into charts, or add resources such as Deployments, Services, and Ingresses.

It helps turn deployment requirements into a repeatable chart structure with standard files and templates.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Any agent

npx skills add akin-ozer/cc-devops-skills --skill helm-generator

Clone the repo

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/akin-ozer/cc-devops-skills

Made for: Claude Code.

Or install devops-skills-plugin, the plugin that ships this one along with the rest of its 31 skills.

SkillSpector: 4 findings, up to high

These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →

Code accesses credential files (SSH keys, AWS credentials, etc.). This could indicate credential theft attempts.

Fix: Remove references to credential paths. Use environment variables or secrets managers. For docs, use placeholder paths (e.g., /path/to/config). Never load .env or token files in production code paths.

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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00022	$0.02803
Opus 5.5	$0.00009	$0.01121
Sonnet 5.5	$0.00004	$0.00561
Haiku 4.5	$0.00002	$0.00280

Security

Grade A, and why

helm-generator scanned grade A with 0 findings 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 2mo ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 3 executable files (scripts/generate_chart_structure.sh, scripts/generate_standard_helpers.sh, tests/test_generate_chart_structure.sh), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Helm Chart Generator

Overview

Generate production-ready Helm charts with deterministic scaffolding, standard helpers, reusable templates, and validation loops.

Official Documentation:

Helm Docs - Main documentation
Chart Best Practices - Official best practices guide
Template Functions - Built-in functions
Sprig Functions - Extended function library

When to Use This Skill

Use helm-generator	Use OTHER skill
Create new Helm charts	helm-validator: Validate/lint existing charts
Generate Helm templates	k8s-yaml-generator: Raw K8s YAML (no Helm)
Convert K8s manifests to Helm	k8s-debug: Debug deployed resources
Implement CRDs in Helm	k8s-yaml-validator: Validate K8s manifests

Trigger Phrases

Use this skill when prompts include phrases like:

"create Helm chart"
"scaffold Helm chart"
"generate Helm templates"
"convert manifests to Helm chart"
"build chart with Deployment/Service/Ingress"

Execution Flow

Follow these stages in order. Do not skip required stages.

Stage 1: Gather Requirements (Required)

Collect:

Scope: full chart, specific templates, or conversion from manifests
Workload: deployment, statefulset, or daemonset
Image reference: repository, optional tag, or digest
Ports: service port and container target port (separate values)
Runtime settings: resources, probes, autoscaling, ingress, storage
Security: service account, security contexts, optional RBAC/network policies

Use request_user_input when critical fields are missing.

If request_user_input is unavailable, ask in normal chat and continue with explicit assumptions.

Missing Information	Question to Ask
Image repository/tag	"What container image should be used? (e.g., nginx:1.25)"
Service port	"What service port should be exposed?"
Container target port	"What container port should traffic be forwarded to?"
Resource limits	"What CPU/memory limits should be set? (e.g., 500m CPU, 512Mi memory)"
Probe endpoints	"What health check endpoints does the app expose? (e.g., /health, /ready)"
Scaling requirements	"Should autoscaling be enabled? If yes, min/max replicas and target CPU%?"
Workload type	"What workload type: Deployment, StatefulSet, or DaemonSet?"
Storage requirements	"Does the application need persistent storage? Size and access mode?"

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

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.
