Can I use this for multi-environment setups?

Yes, the skill provides guidance on organizing manifests for different environments, including support for Kustomize-style structures.

Does it provide validation for the generated YAML?

The skill includes a validation workflow using kubectl dry-runs and external tools like kubeval and kube-score to ensure manifest correctness.

How does it improve Kubernetes security?

It implements security contexts that enforce running as a non-root user, dropping Linux capabilities, and utilizing read-only root filesystems.

Does this skill support StatefulSets and CronJobs?

Yes, the skill includes specialized patterns for stateful applications using StatefulSets and background tasks using Jobs or CronJobs.

Deployment & DevOps

Generates production-grade, secure Kubernetes manifests for Deployments, Services, and infrastructure components following cloud-native best practices.

About

The Kubernetes Manifest Generator skill provides a structured framework for creating robust and secure Kubernetes resource definitions. It guides users through the creation of Deployments, Services, ConfigMaps, Secrets, and PersistentVolumeClaims while enforcing critical production standards like resource limits, health probes, and non-root security contexts. By automating the boilerplate of YAML generation and incorporating validation steps, this skill helps developers and DevOps engineers deploy scalable, well-labeled, and industry-standard containerized workloads with confidence.

Key Features

Automated resource request and limit definitions to prevent resource exhaustion
Comprehensive health check (liveness/readiness) implementation patterns
Template generation for Deployments, Services, StatefulSets, and CronJobs
0 GitHub stars
Security-first configurations including non-root users and read-only filesystems
Integrated validation workflows using dry-runs and linting tools

Use Cases

Hardening existing Kubernetes manifests to meet organizational security standards
Scaffolding new microservices with production-ready K8s infrastructure
Designing complex multi-resource deployments for stateful and stateless applications
