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.

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 | $0.00000 | $0.00606 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00000 | $0.00303 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00000 | $0.00121 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00000 | $0.00061 |
Grade A, and why
argo-cd 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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 66 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Argo CD Skill
Declarative continuous deployment for Kubernetes.

argo-cd -- "alternative to" --> github-actions
Quick Start
Argo CD implements GitOps. Instead of your CI pipeline pushing deployments to Kubernetes, Argo CD runs inside Kubernetes and continually pulls the latest desired state from your Git repository.
kubectl apply -n argocd -f https://raw.githubusercontent.com/argoproj/argo-cd/stable/manifests/install.yaml
Production Patterns
The App of Apps Pattern
Define a root Argo CD Application custom resource that points to a Git directory containing other Application resources. This allows Argo CD to bootstrap and manage an entire cluster's configuration recursively.
Architecture & Scaling
Self-Healing
Enable Auto-Sync and Self-Healing. If a developer manually runs kubectl edit in production to change a replica count, Argo CD will detect the configuration drift and immediately overwrite it, forcing Git to remain the single source of truth.
Error Recovery
If an automated sync breaks the cluster, simply git revert the bad commit in your repository. Argo CD will instantly detect the rollback in Git and sync the cluster back to the healthy state.
Security Notes
Argo CD requires extremely high privileges in the cluster. Ensure its UI/API is strictly protected via SSO (OIDC/SAML). Limit access using Argo CD's native RBAC to ensure developers can only sync applications in their specific namespaces.
Relationships
Prerequisites: kubernetes
Alternatives: github-actions
Works Well With: helm

Why use this skill
Use this when your agent works with argo-cd — structured patterns beat pasted docs and prevent common hallucinations.
What ships with it
2 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.
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.

argo-cd is a skill published in the GitHub repository ashish7802/awesome-api-skills (13 stars, last pushed 8d ago), licensed MIT. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 606 tokens. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
