helm

helm is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from greedychipmunk/agent-skills. It costs 38 tokens per session (922 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide for packaging and deploying applications to Kubernetes with Helm. Kubernetes runs applications across managed groups of machines, while Helm uses reusable charts and configuration values to describe those applications.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to create or modify Helm charts, install or upgrade releases, manage chart repositories, inspect values, or roll back deployments.
Why use it?
It provides instructions for repeatable deployments, upgrades, rollbacks, and environment-specific configuration.

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

helm 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 5d 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.

helm

Use this skill to keep Helm-based Kubernetes deployments reproducible, auditable, and safe across environments.

Intent Router

Request Reference Load When
Install Helm, add repos, configure registries resources/install-and-setup.md User needs to install Helm or configure repositories
install/upgrade/list/rollback/template commands resources/command-cookbook.md User needs day-to-day Helm release operations
Chart.yaml, templates, values, helpers resources/chart-authoring.md User wants to author or modify a Helm chart
Release lifecycle, --atomic, --wait, diff plugin resources/release-management.md User asks about release management or upgrade strategies

Quick Start

# Add a chart repository
helm repo add bitnami https://charts.bitnami.com/bitnami
helm repo update

# Search for a chart
helm search repo bitnami/nginx

# Inspect default values
helm show values bitnami/nginx

# Install with custom values
helm install my-nginx bitnami/nginx --set service.type=ClusterIP -n my-namespace

# Upgrade with a values file
helm upgrade my-nginx bitnami/nginx -f values.yaml -n my-namespace

# List releases
helm list -A

Core Command Tracks

  • Install: helm install <release> <chart> [flags] — create a new release
  • Upgrade: helm upgrade --install <release> <chart> — create or update release
  • Rollback: helm rollback <release> [revision] — revert to previous revision
  • Template: helm template <release> <chart> — render manifests locally without applying
  • Values: helm get values <release> — inspect values used by a deployed release
  • Status: helm status <release> — show release info and notes
  • Uninstall: helm uninstall <release> — remove release and resources

Safety Guardrails

  • Always run helm upgrade --dry-run --debug or helm template before applying changes to production.
  • Use the helm diff plugin (helm diff upgrade) to inspect what will change before applying.
  • Use --atomic in CI pipelines so failed upgrades automatically roll back.
  • Never pass secrets via --set; use a secrets manager or the helm-secrets plugin.
  • Always specify --namespace explicitly; do not rely on the default namespace.
  • Pin chart versions with --version in production to ensure reproducibility.
  • Confirm before running helm uninstall; it removes all resources managed by the release.

What ships with it

4 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.

helm is a skill published in the GitHub repository greedychipmunk/agent-skills (17 stars, last pushed 12d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 38 tokens to every session and 922 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 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.
