Kubernetes Production

Use When

• Use when operating production Kubernetes — Helm, autoscaling (HPA/VPA), resource management, StatefulSets, external-secrets, observability (Prometheus/Grafana/Loki), RBAC, Pod Security Standards, NetworkPolicies, admission control, backup (Velero), and cost control.
• 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-production 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.
