Kubernetes Fundamentals

Use When

• Use when starting with Kubernetes — core objects, kubectl workflow, manifests, probes, ingress, cluster setup (EKS/GKE/kind), and deciding when K8s is the right tool vs systemd, Docker Compose, ECS/Fargate, or PaaS.
• The task needs reusable judgment, domain constraints, or a proven workflow rather than ad hoc advice.

Do Not Use When

• The task is unrelated to kubernetes-fundamentals or would be better handled by a more specific companion skill.
• The request only needs a trivial answer and none of this skill's constraints or references materially help.

Required Inputs

• Gather relevant project context, constraints, and the concrete problem to solve; load references only as needed.
• Confirm the desired deliverable: design, code, review, migration plan, audit, or documentation.
