Automated safety checks
This skill passed all 6 checks. We read its files at one commit and looked for the things that make a skill dangerous to run — not for whether it works.
Declares what it does: passed
SKILL.md parses and declares a name and a description.
SKILL.md exists, its frontmatter parses, and it declares a name and a description.
No undeclared network calls: passed
Makes no network calls.
Every host the skill dials — from its scripts, its config endpoints or the commands it tells the agent to run — is either well-known package and API infrastructure or declared in its own frontmatter. Links in documentation are not counted.
No obfuscated payloads: passed
No encoded or obfuscated payloads.
No base64, hex or compressed blob is decoded and then executed, and no encoded shell commands.
No credential access: passed
Reads no keys, tokens, keychains or credential files.
Neither the code nor the SKILL.md instructions read SSH keys, cloud credentials, keychains, token stores, browser cookie databases or dotfiles that hold secrets.
No pipe-to-shell installers: passed
No pipe-to-shell or download-and-run installers.
No `curl … | sh` pattern, in the code or in the instructions, that runs code fetched at run time.
Pinned to a commit: passed

About this skill
The kubernetes-deployment skill enables AI agents to manage containerized applications within Kubernetes clusters. It handles the full lifecycle of deployments, including creating, updating, and deleting workloads based on user instructions or configuration files.
When to use it
- Automating the rollout of new application versions to production environments.
- Scaling up or down the number of pod replicas in response to traffic changes.
- Rolling back a failed deployment to a previous stable version quickly.
- Applying complex Kubernetes manifests that define multiple resources like services and ingress rules.
Key capabilities
- Creating new deployments from YAML configuration files.
- Updating existing deployments with new images or resource specifications.
- Deleting specific deployments or entire namespaces.
- Managing rollout strategies such as rolling updates and recreate modes.
Example prompts
- "Create a Kubernetes deployment for my web app using the provided Docker image
my-app:v2with 3 replicas." - "Update the existing
frontend-servicedeployment to use the latest stable tag and increase memory limits to 512Mi." - "Rollback the
api-gatewaydeployment to the previous revision after the last update caused errors."
Tips & gotchas
Ensure your AI agent has read/write access to the target Kubernetes cluster via kubeconfig or API tokens before attempting operations. Complex manifests involving multiple interdependent resources may require careful validation to prevent breaking existing services during updates.
