kubernetes

kubernetes is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from fmind/dot. It costs 22 tokens per session (927 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide for operating Kubernetes clusters with tools such as kubectl and Helm. Kubernetes runs and manages containerized applications across one or more machines.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to inspect clusters, validate and build manifests, manage Helm releases, view logs, and create or operate local Kubernetes clusters.
Why use it?
It helps ensure commands target the intended cluster and namespace, while validating configuration and checking security before changes are applied.

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 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.

Kubernetes Cluster and Workload Operations

Use kubectl, helm, k9s, kustomize, and stern for Kubernetes cluster inspection, manifest authoring, Helm releases, and log debugging. docker manages container runtimes and infra-as-code provisions managed cloud clusters.

Confirm user authority for cluster mutations and spending, reusing existing authorization. Pin --context and --namespace (or Helm's --kube-context) after resolving the intended cluster.

Workflow

  1. Verify active context and namespace: inspect the current cluster context before running any command; never assume terminal defaults point to dev.

    kubectl config get-contexts
    kubectl --context <context> cluster-info
    
  2. Lint and validate manifests: validate schemas against the target cluster's version (kubeconform defaults to master schemas) and verify security practices prior to applying manifests.

    kubeconform -strict -summary -kubernetes-version <cluster-version> <file-or-directory>
    trivy config <file-or-directory>
    kustomize build <kustomization-dir> | kubeconform -strict -summary -kubernetes-version <cluster-version> -
    
  3. Use a local cluster only when needed: read k3d before creating or deleting one; manifest checks often answer the question without it.

  4. Deploy declaratively: apply configurations using Helm or Kustomize; preview changes before mutating cluster state.

    helm upgrade --install <release-name> <chart-path> --kube-context <context> --namespace <namespace> --dry-run=server --hide-secret
    kubectl --context <context> --namespace <namespace> diff -k <kustomization-dir>
    

    A diff exit status of 1 means differences; higher values are errors. Review the preview, then apply within the authorized scope. kubectl diff masks Secret data unless --show-secrets is passed, but ConfigMaps and rendered chart values are not masked; exclude sensitive values from captured output.

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.

kubernetes is a skill published in the GitHub repository fmind/dot (11 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 22 tokens to every session and 927 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5.5. 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 2026-09-17.
