consul-knowledge-patch

A reference guide for Consul, a HashiCorp system for discovering services and connecting them securely across networks. It focuses on recent changes in service meshes, gateways, Kubernetes, security, operations, and Enterprise features.

In plain words
What is it for?
Designing, configuring, upgrading, and troubleshooting Consul deployments, including service discovery, service meshes, gateways, Kubernetes, snapshots, certificates, and operational limits.
Why use it?
It helps prevent configuration and upgrade mistakes caused by differences in Consul versions, editions, deployment platforms, and network layouts.

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

consul-knowledge-patch scanned grade A with 1 finding 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 2d 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.

Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 173 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

HashiCorp Consul

Use this skill when designing, configuring, upgrading, or troubleshooting Consul deployments whose behavior depends on recent discovery, service-mesh, gateway, Kubernetes, security, Enterprise, or operational changes.

Treat the reference files as task-oriented supplements. Inspect the deployment's actual Consul and Envoy versions, edition, platform, topology, and configuration before applying guidance. Release-specific behavior does not replace an existing tested constraint.

Reference index

Reference Topics
Discovery, networking, and mesh ESM, sessions, multi-port services, IPv6, Envoy compatibility, mesh routing, passive health
Enterprise operations and telemetry support policy, utilization, RPC limits, HTTP timeouts, product and certificate telemetry, IBM licensing
Gateways, security, and identity OIDC, KV validation, path normalization, SDS, gateway limits, CA providers, request limits, headers
Kubernetes and snapshots GCS and Azure snapshots, Pod Security Admission, OpenShift, API Gateway scaling and migration
Upgrades and rollouts license sequencing, maintained-version cadence, federated rollouts, protocol transitions, Autopilot

Start with compatibility and security changes

Validate KV names before rollout

The KV endpoint rejects invalid key names by default. Audit writers and stored keys before upgrading. Use DisableKVKeyValidation only as a deliberate compatibility escape hatch, with a plan to remove invalid names.

Keep HTTP paths normalized before L7 authorization

API Gateway and terminating-gateway HTTP listeners normalize paths before intention RBAC checks. Custom envoy_public_listener_json HTTP Connection Manager filter chains receive the same normalization. Do not set InsecureDisablePathNormalization unless the bypass risk is explicitly accepted.

What ships with it

6 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.

consul-knowledge-patch is a skill published in the GitHub repository Nevaberry/nevaberry-plugins (24 stars, last pushed 6d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 12 tokens to every session and 2,342 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 1 finding (makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
