In plain words
What is it for?
It is for diagnosing, fixing, and verifying Kubernetes container image pull failures.
Why use it?
It helps find why an image download fails and confirm that the correction worked.

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

k8s-image-pull 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 1mo ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 2 executable files (scripts/diagnose-quick.sh, scripts/verify-image.sh), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

88% identical to k8s-config-secret — 138 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

生产环境安全提示

本文档包含可直接执行的运维命令。执行前请确认:当前目标集群与 Namespace 是否正确;是否具备足够的 RBAC 权限;是否已在非生产环境验证。命令风险等级标注:🔴 高风险(可能造成数据丢失或服务中断)、🟡 中风险(会修改集群状态,但通常可回滚)、🟢 低风险/只读(信息收集,无副作用)。

K8s Image Pull Failure 诊断与修复

ImagePullBackOff 和 ErrImagePull 是 [[kubernetes|Kubernetes]] 中最常见的 Pod 启动失败原因之一。根因可能涉及镜像不存在、标签错误、仓库认证、网络问题或节点磁盘空间不足等。

本 [[SKILL|Skill]] 覆盖全部常见镜像拉取失败根因的诊断和修复。

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.
