kubectl_onprem

kubectl_onprem is a skill for Claude Code from Arvo-AI/aurora. It costs 23 tokens per session (666 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A connection for running kubectl commands on Kubernetes clusters hosted on your own servers. Kubernetes is software for running and managing groups of containers; kubectl is its command-line tool.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to discover available clusters and check or manage resources such as pods. It can run commands through an agent installed on the cluster or through an uploaded access file.
Why use it?
It gives you a way to inspect and troubleshoot connected on-premises clusters from the coding agent.

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

kubectl_onprem 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 9d 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.

On-Prem Kubernetes (kubectl) Integration

Overview

On-prem Kubernetes cluster integration for running kubectl commands on connected clusters. Commands are either relayed through the Aurora agent installed on the cluster, or executed directly using uploaded kubeconfig credentials.

IMPORTANT: Always call get_connected_clusters first to discover available clusters and their cluster_id before running any kubectl commands.

Note: For cloud-managed clusters (GCP GKE, AWS EKS, Azure AKS), use terminal_exec with kubectl commands instead.

Instructions

Tool: get_connected_clusters

Discover available on-prem clusters. Call this before using on_prem_kubectl.

Usage: get_connected_clusters()

Returns cluster names, IDs, connection status, and metadata.

Tool: on_prem_kubectl

Run kubectl commands on connected on-prem Kubernetes clusters.

Usage: on_prem_kubectl(cluster_id='CLUSTER_ID', command='get pods -n default')

Specify the cluster using the cluster_id returned by get_connected_clusters.

RCA Investigation Flow

  1. Discover available clusters: get_connected_clusters()
  2. List pods and check status: on_prem_kubectl(cluster_id='ID', command='get pods -n NAMESPACE')
  3. Check pod logs for errors: on_prem_kubectl(cluster_id='ID', command='logs PODNAME -n NAMESPACE --tail=100')
  4. Describe failing pods for events: on_prem_kubectl(cluster_id='ID', command='describe pod PODNAME -n NAMESPACE')
  5. Check recent events in the namespace: on_prem_kubectl(cluster_id='ID', command='get events -n NAMESPACE --sort-by=.lastTimestamp')
  6. Check node status: on_prem_kubectl(cluster_id='ID', command='get nodes -o wide')
  7. Check resource usage: on_prem_kubectl(cluster_id='ID', command='top pods -n NAMESPACE')

Important Rules

  • Always specify cluster_id to target the correct cluster.
  • For cloud-managed clusters (GCP GKE, AWS EKS, Azure AKS), use terminal_exec with kubectl commands.
  • This tool is for on-prem/self-managed clusters connected via the Aurora kubectl agent or uploaded kubeconfigs.
  • Check pod status and events before diving into logs.
