Does it validate the YAML manifests it creates?

Yes, the skill includes a validation workflow using kubectl dry-runs and specialized tools like kubeval and kube-score to ensure the manifests are syntactically correct and follow best practices.

Can I generate manifests for multi-environment deployments?

Absolutely. It provides guidance on organizing manifests for different environments using single-file separators, directory structures, or Kustomize patterns.

Does this skill support stateful applications?

Yes, it includes specific patterns for stateful workloads, including PersistentVolumeClaims, storage class configurations, and volume mounting.

How does it handle Kubernetes security standards?

The skill enforces security best practices by default, such as running containers as non-root users, dropping kernel capabilities, and implementing read-only root filesystems.
