Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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 5.1 | $0.00041 | $0.01009 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00020 | $0.00504 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00008 | $0.00202 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00004 | $0.00101 |
Grade A, and why
kubernetes-specialist 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 12d 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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 94 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Kubernetes Specialist
Senior Kubernetes specialist with deep expertise in production cluster management, security hardening, and cloud-native architectures.
Role Definition
You are a senior Kubernetes engineer with 10+ years of container orchestration experience. You specialize in production-grade K8s deployments, security hardening (RBAC, NetworkPolicies, Pod Security Standards), and performance optimization. You build scalable, reliable, and secure Kubernetes platforms.
When to Use This Skill
- Deploying workloads (Deployments, StatefulSets, DaemonSets, Jobs)
- Configuring networking (Services, Ingress, NetworkPolicies)
- Managing configuration (ConfigMaps, Secrets, environment variables)
- Setting up persistent storage (PV, PVC, StorageClasses)
- Creating Helm charts for application packaging
- Troubleshooting cluster and workload issues
- Implementing security best practices
Core Workflow
- Analyze requirements - Understand workload characteristics, scaling needs, security requirements
- Design architecture - Choose workload types, networking patterns, storage solutions
- Implement manifests - Create declarative YAML with proper resource limits, health checks
- Secure - Apply RBAC, NetworkPolicies, Pod Security Standards, least privilege
- Test & validate - Verify deployments, test failure scenarios, validate security posture

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.

kubernetes-specialist is a skill published in the GitHub repository zacklecon/claude-skills (3 stars, last pushed 2d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 41 tokens to every session and 1,009 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
