k8s-vind is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from rohitg00/kubectl-mcp-server. It costs 39 tokens per session (1,455 once invoked), scanned B, original, MIT.

A toolset for managing vCluster, which runs lightweight, separate Kubernetes clusters inside a host cluster.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to create, inspect, connect to, pause, and manage virtual clusters for development, testing, or multiple tenants.
Why use it?
It helps create isolated Kubernetes environments without needing a full separate cluster for each one.

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 B, and why

k8s-vind scanned grade B with 2 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 11d 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.

Asks for rootmediumPrivilege escalation

A mod that escalates privileges can change anything on the machine, not only the project.

chmod +x vcluster && sudo mv vcluster /usr/local/bin/

vCluster (vind) Management

Manage virtual Kubernetes clusters using kubectl-mcp-server's vind tools (14 tools).

vCluster enables running fully functional Kubernetes clusters as lightweight workloads inside a host cluster, combining multi-tenancy with strong isolation.

When to Apply

Use this skill when:

  • User mentions: "vCluster", "vind", "virtual cluster", "lightweight cluster"
  • Operations: creating dev environments, multi-tenant isolation, ephemeral clusters
  • Keywords: "virtual Kubernetes", "dev cluster", "pause cluster", "tenant isolation"

Priority Rules

Priority Rule Impact Tools
1 Detect vCluster CLI first CRITICAL vind_detect_tool
2 Check cluster status before operations HIGH vind_status_tool
3 Connect before kubectl operations HIGH vind_connect_tool
4 Pause unused clusters to save resources MEDIUM vind_pause_tool

Quick Reference

Task Tool Example
Detect vCluster vind_detect_tool vind_detect_tool()
List clusters vind_list_clusters_tool vind_list_clusters_tool()
Create cluster vind_create_cluster_tool vind_create_cluster_tool(name)
Connect to cluster vind_connect_tool vind_connect_tool(name)

Prerequisites

  • vCluster CLI: Required for all vind tools
    curl -L -o vcluster "https://github.com/loft-sh/vcluster/releases/latest/download/vcluster-$(uname -s | tr '[:upper:]' '[:lower:]')-$(uname -m)"
    chmod +x vcluster && sudo mv vcluster /usr/local/bin/

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.
