helm-chart-scaffolding

helm-chart-scaffolding is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from RudyCity/superagent. It costs 41 tokens per session (423 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

Guidance for creating Helm charts, which are reusable templates used to package and configure applications for Kubernetes.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for packaging Kubernetes applications, creating reusable deployment templates, managing environment-specific settings, validating charts, and preparing chart releases.
Why use it?
It helps keep Kubernetes deployments consistent across environments while allowing settings to change through configuration values.

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-chart-scaffolding 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 7d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/validate-chart.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.

What it actually says

Helm Chart Scaffolding

Comprehensive guidance for creating, organizing, and managing Helm charts for packaging and deploying Kubernetes applications.

Purpose

This skill provides step-by-step instructions for building production-ready Helm charts, including chart structure, templating patterns, values management, and validation strategies.

When to Use This Skill

Use this skill when you need to:

  • Create new Helm charts from scratch
  • Package Kubernetes applications for distribution
  • Manage multi-environment deployments with Helm
  • Implement templating for reusable Kubernetes manifests
  • Set up Helm chart repositories
  • Follow Helm best practices and conventions

Detailed patterns and worked examples

Detailed pattern documentation lives in references/details.md. Read that file when the navigation tier above is insufficient.

Best Practices

  1. Use semantic versioning for chart and app versions
  2. Document all values in values.yaml with comments
  3. Use template helpers for repeated logic
  4. Validate charts before packaging
  5. Pin dependency versions explicitly
  6. Use conditions for optional resources
  7. Follow naming conventions (lowercase, hyphens)
  8. Include NOTES.txt with usage instructions
  9. Add labels consistently using helpers
  10. Test installations in all environments

Troubleshooting

Template rendering errors:

helm template my-app ./my-app --debug

Dependency issues:

helm dependency update
helm dependency list

Installation failures:

helm install my-app ./my-app --dry-run --debug
kubectl get events --sort-by='.lastTimestamp'
  • k8s-manifest-generator - For creating base Kubernetes manifests
  • gitops-workflow - For automated Helm chart deployments
Files

What ships with it

5 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.
