Is it safe to use for production cluster management?

Yes, the skill enforces best practices such as preferring read-only operations first, strict namespace scoping, and requesting user confirmation before performing destructive actions.

Can it help resolve specific errors like ImagePullBackOff?

Yes, it follows a recommended debugging sequence—listing pods, describing resources, and fetching events—to identify the root cause of image or configuration issues.

Does this skill require a specialized MCP server?

While it prefers using an MCP server for faster and pre-approved operations, it includes a robust fallback to standard kubectl commands via the terminal.

How does this skill handle multiple Kubernetes clusters?

The skill is multi-cluster aware and manages interactions through kubeconfig contexts, ensuring commands are executed against the correct cluster to avoid ambiguity.

배포 및 DevOps

Diagnoses and manages Kubernetes clusters by inspecting resources, logs, and events to resolve workload failures and optimize operations.

소개

This skill empowers Claude to navigate and debug Kubernetes environments with precision by leveraging either MCP servers or kubectl commands. It provides a structured, stepwise approach to resolving common container issues—such as CrashLoopBackOff, ImagePullBackOff, or pending pods—by systematically analyzing resource conditions, events, and logs. Designed with safety and multi-cluster awareness in mind, it ensures that operations are scoped correctly to namespaces and contexts while preferring non-destructive read operations for faster, safer troubleshooting.
