What is create-infrastructure?

A skill for creating Harness infrastructure definitions in YAML, a text format for configuration, and submitting them through an MCP connection. Harness infrastructure definitions describe where deployed workloads run.

Configuring deployment targets for Kubernetes, Google Kubernetes Engine, Azure Kubernetes Service, Amazon ECS, or AWS Lambda, when the required environment and connector already exist.

It helps turn a deployment target such as a Kubernetes cluster, ECS service, or serverless function into the configuration Harness needs.

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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5	$0.00049	$0.01251
Opus 5	$0.00024	$0.00626
Sonnet 5	$0.00010	$0.00250
Haiku 4.5	$0.00005	$0.00125

Security

Grade A, and why

create-infrastructure 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.

Create Infrastructure

Generate Harness Infrastructure Definition YAML and push via MCP.

Instructions

Identify infrastructure type - KubernetesDirect, KubernetesGcp (GKE), KubernetesAzure (AKS), ECS, or ServerlessAwsLambda
Ensure prerequisites exist - The environment and cloud/cluster connector must be created first
Generate YAML using the templates below, referencing the correct connector and environment
Create via MCP using harness_create with resource_type infrastructure
