What it does

Fastllm Operate is an agent skill from azrtydxb/Fastllm-proxy. Operate and diagnose the FastLLM deployment on the kw Kubernetes cluster — check whether it is running, bring it back after a shutdown, deploy manifest changes, and work out why the gateway is unreachable, returning 503, or serving stale policy. Use for "is fastllm up", pods not starting, ImagePullBackOff, empty service endpoints, a missing Postgres pod, or backends out of rotation. Not for API calls against a healthy instance (fastllm-routing, fastllm-gateway and friends).

Its SKILL.md is about 930 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in DevOps & Cloud, covering Container orchestration and Deployment. It works with Kubernetes and PostgreSQL. The repository describes itself as: The lowest-overhead LLM router. Production-ready, highly available, one OpenAI-compatible endpoint in front of 80 providers and your own vLLM/SGLang — 0.76 µs per request, no I/O… The licence is Apache-2.0.

When your agent uses it

  • Pods not starting
  • ImagePullBackOff
  • Empty service endpoints
  • A missing Postgres pod

Example prompts

  • “is fastllm up”
  • “/fastllm-operate”

Workflow steps

7 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Nodes schedulable — kubectl get nodes. Ready,SchedulingDisabled means
  2. Workloads not scaled to zero — a clean shutdown scales deployments and
  3. Registry up — the image lives in-cluster. If nexus/nexus is scaled to
  4. Postgres present — a CNPG cluster can report Cluster in healthy state
  5. Image matches the schema — `migration N was previously applied but is
  6. Service endpoints non-empty — kubectl -n fastllm get endpoints. A stale
  7. Backends in rotation — the proxy logs backend healthy, back in rotation

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 5d53db8. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • kubectl

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use kubectl, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Fastllm Operate loads about 932 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 124 tokens; SKILL.md has 433 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~124
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~932

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Operating FastLLM on kw

Topology

Namespacefastllm (control plane, proxy, CNPG Postgres)
Operatorfastllm-system
Gateway VIP192.168.10.125, alt 192.168.10.126
Admin VIP192.168.10.129:4001 (HTTPS, self-signed — use -k)
Postgres dev VIP192.168.10.127:5432
Registry192.168.10.131 (Nexus, in the nexus namespace)
Manifestsdeploy/ — applied continuously, so they are the source of truth

Diagnose in dependency order

Work down. Each step is worthless until the one above it passes.

  1. Nodes schedulable — kubectl get nodes. Ready,SchedulingDisabled means cordoned: existing pods keep running while nothing new can start. A blanket cordon across every node is a deliberate shutdown, not a fault, and it causes unrelated-looking failures downstream (Longhorn's driver-deployer crash-loops because its helper pod cannot schedule).
  2. Workloads not scaled to zero — a clean shutdown scales deployments and statefulsets to 0. Recover the intended count from kubectl.kubernetes.io/last-applied-configuration rather than assuming 1.
  3. Registry up — the image lives in-cluster. If nexus/nexus is scaled to 0, everything else is ImagePullBackOff for a reason that has nothing to do with the workload.
  4. Postgres present — a CNPG cluster can report Cluster in healthy state with no pods at all when hibernated. Check kubectl -n fastllm get cluster fastllm-pg -o jsonpath='{.metadata.annotations}' for cnpg.io/hibernation: on; clear it with kubectl -n fastllm annotate cluster fastllm-pg cnpg.io/hibernation=off --overwrite. Nothing in describe or the operator log points at this.
  5. Image matches the schema — migration N was previously applied but is missing in the resolved migrations means the deployed image is older than the database. Compare the manifest's tag against migrations/.
  6. Service endpoints non-empty — kubectl -n fastllm get endpoints. A stale selector (for example a Helm-era four-label selector against single-label pods) leaves a Service with <none> and the proxy reporting No route to host at the control plane.
  7. Backends in rotation — the proxy logs backend healthy, back in rotation and backend failed N consecutive probes, out of rotation by URL.

Verify, do not assume

  • Gateway 401 = healthy and rejecting an unauthenticated request. That is a successful smoke test.
  • Gateway /health 503 = running but has no usable snapshot.
  • curl 000 = nothing listening; that is the real failure.
  • A Deployment's spec.selector is immutable. Changing labels means deleting and recreating it, and the Service selector must be updated to match or endpoints go empty.

Do not

  • Do not undo a blanket cordon or scale-up stateful workloads without asking — a full shutdown is usually deliberate, and databases starting cold at once is not free.
  • Do not edit an applied migration. sqlx checksums them and refuses to start.
  • Do not write to Postgres to make a config change when an admin session is available; SQL writes bypass the audit trail.
