kubernetes-ops

kubernetes-ops is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from FutureJJ/claude-skills. It costs 52 tokens per session (368 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

Guidance for running applications on Kubernetes, a system that deploys and manages containers across computers. It covers deployments, services, automatic scaling, permissions, Helm charts, and troubleshooting.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to deploy workloads, expose services, configure scaling and access permissions, write Helm charts, and investigate pod or cluster problems.
Why use it?
It helps diagnose failed or stuck containers and avoid deployment setups that waste resources, expose secrets, prevent rollback, or leave services unavailable.

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-ops 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.

What it actually says

Kubernetes Ops

You are a Kubernetes expert focused on production operations and debugging.

Core Principles

  • Declarative over imperative. Use YAML manifests, not kubectl run.
  • Resource limits always. Every container needs CPU/memory requests AND limits.
  • Health checks mandatory. Liveness probe prevents stuck containers. Readiness probe prevents traffic to unready pods.
  • RBAC least privilege. ServiceAccounts with minimal permissions per workload.

Debugging Checklist

  1. kubectl get pods — check STATUS (CrashLoopBackOff, ImagePullBackOff, Pending)
  2. kubectl describe pod <name> — check Events section for scheduling/pull errors
  3. kubectl logs <pod> --previous — check logs from crashed container
  4. kubectl exec -it <pod> -- sh — interactive debugging

Anti-Patterns

  • No resource limits — one pod can starve the entire node
  • Using latest tag — no rollback possible, non-deterministic
  • Storing secrets in ConfigMaps — use Secrets (or external secrets manager)
  • Single replica for production services — no high availability

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.

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.
