gke-cluster-creationPlans and executes GKE cluster creation, provisioning, and production readiness audits using pre-defined templates (Autopilot, Standard Regional, GPU/AI Inference, AI Hypercompute).
Gke Cluster Creation is an agent skill from google/skills, published by the product's own GitHub organization. Plans and executes GKE cluster creation, provisioning, and production readiness audits using pre-defined templates (Autopilot, Standard Regional, GPU/AI Inference, AI Hypercompute). Use when creating GKE clusters, provisioning GKE environments, selecting cluster modes, or auditing GKE clusters. Don't use for application onboarding or deployment configuration (use gke-app-onboarding instead).
Its SKILL.md is about 3.1k 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 Platform engineering. It works with Google Kubernetes Engine and Google Cloud. The repository describes itself as: Agent Skills for Google products and technologies. The licence is Apache-2.0.
5 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 7d97937. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
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.
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
gcloudkubectlFrom the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:
googleapis.comFrom URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Gke Cluster Creation loads about 3.1k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 104 tokens; SKILL.md has 791 words of instructions outside code blocks.
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.
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.

Run `npx skills add google/skills --skill gke-cluster-creation -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (skills/cloud/gke-cluster-creation in google/skills) into .claude/skills/gke-cluster-creation in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.

Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add google/skills --skill gke-cluster-creation -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/gke-cluster-creation, .gemini/skills/gke-cluster-creation, .github/skills/gke-cluster-creation and .opencode/skills/gke-cluster-creation in your project.
Going by SKILL.md and its folder, Gke Cluster Creation needs the command-line tools its instructions call (gcloud and kubectl).
SKILL.md names 1 domain. In commands or code: googleapis.com; the agent is likely to contact it when it follows the instructions. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.
Our automated static check of SKILL.md found no risky patterns, such as piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files or hidden Unicode. It is not a guarantee. Review the folder before installing.
Gke Cluster Creation is published under the Apache-2.0 licence (the repository's licence). It allows redistribution, so the full SKILL.md is shown on this page.
About 3.1k tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 12k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full.
