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 | $0.00056 | $0.01992 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00022 | $0.00797 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00011 | $0.00398 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00006 | $0.00199 |
Grade A, and why
gke-backup-dr 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 8d 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 — 166 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
GKE Backup & Disaster Recovery
Protects stateful GKE workloads using Backup for GKE. Backup for GKE can capture both Kubernetes resource metadata (manifests, configurations, and secrets) and the underlying persistent volume (PV) data — but volume data and secrets are only captured when the backup plan explicitly enables them (see the flags below).
CLI Reference
A change goes out as a pull request to the GitOps repository, never as a write from here: Kubernetes objects as YAML through
gke-manifest-generation, cluster settings and other Google Cloud resources as Config Connector YAML throughgcp-config-connector, opened withsubmit-suggestion. Each profile's config offers only thegkeMCP server's read tools, and the broker refuseskubectlandgcloudwrites.
Each change below is proposed as Config Connector YAML through gcp-config-connector:
- BackupRestore addon (slow cluster-level update):
spec.addonsConfig.gkeBackupAgentConfig.enabled: trueon the cluster'sContainerCluster. - Backup plan
{plan_name}forprojects/{project_id}/locations/{location}/clusters/{cluster_name}: all namespaces, volume data and secrets included, retained{days}days, on the cron schedule{cron}. - Restore plan
{restore_plan_name}targetingprojects/{project_id}/locations/{location}/clusters/{target_cluster_name}from the backup plan{source_backup_plan_name}: all namespaces, volume data restored from the backup, the cluster-resource conflict policy that keeps existing versions, and the namespaced-resource restore mode that fails on conflict (the safe defaults in Restore Safety below). - A manual backup
{backup_name}and a restore{restore_name}of it also go throughgcp-config-connector; a restore needs the confirmation in Restore Safety below.
The backup plan, restore plan, backup and restore are Backup for GKE resources,
not ContainerCluster fields. If gcp-config-connector has no resource for one
of them, it has no declarative path in a Config Connector repository, and the
agent blocks rather than inventing a field.
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.

gke-backup-dr is a skill published in the GitHub repository gke-labs/kube-agents (116 stars, last pushed today), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 56 tokens to every session and 1,992 once invoked, about $0.0002 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 2026-08-30.
