GitOps Apply Skill

Purpose

Guide users through proper GitOps workflow when they attempt to mutate Kubernetes resources with kubectl. Replaces imperative kubectl commands with declarative manifests in git, ensuring all cluster changes are auditable, reviewable, and recoverable.

Why GitOps Over kubectl

kubectl apply/create/delete:

  • ❌ No audit trail of who changed what
  • ❌ No peer review process
  • ❌ Difficult rollback (manual undo)
  • ❌ Configuration drift (cluster != git)
  • ❌ No disaster recovery story
  • ❌ Imperative (how), not declarative (what)
