HomeLab: Skill for Claude Code

.agents/skills/kubernetes-skill/SKILL.md

kubernetes-skill is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from ArthurVardevanyan/HomeLab. It costs 53 tokens per session (272 once invoked), scanned A, original, Unlicense.

A set of instructions for working with Kubernetes, the system for running containerized applications. It covers configuration files, deployment tools, access rules, network rules, and cluster operations.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to create or review Kubernetes manifests, Helm charts, and Kustomize overlays, or to manage access, networking, and platform-specific clusters such as EKS, GKE, AKS, and OpenShift.
Why use it?
It provides a defined process for handling Kubernetes work and retrieving only the relevant reference material. This helps avoid missing failure cases or relying on incomplete guidance.

Written for no agent in particular: nothing here depends on one. Also seen: installed under .agents/ (shared by several agents).

This is ArthurVardevanyan/HomeLab's own configuration. It tells Claude Code and Codex how to work on HomeLab itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything HomeLab configures →

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

kubernetes-skill 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 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.

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.

KubeShark (Kubernetes Skill)

This is a stub. The full skill content lives outside this repository at:

~/Projects/Code/kubernetes-skill/

Activation

Load the upstream workflow before responding to Kubernetes tasks:

  1. Read ~/Projects/Code/kubernetes-skill/SKILL.md for the failure-mode workflow.
  2. Pull individual files from ~/Projects/Code/kubernetes-skill/references/ on demand per the Conditional Reference Retrieval (CRR) pattern. Do not preload the full reference set.
  3. For platform-specific work (EKS, GKE, AKS, OpenShift, GitOps controllers, observability stacks), load the matching file from ~/Projects/Code/kubernetes-skill/references/conditional/.

Setup

If the local path is missing, clone it first:

git clone https://github.com/LukasNiessen/kubernetes-skill.git \
    ~/Projects/Code/kubernetes-skill
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.
