At a glance

Explains KubeSphere 4.x architecture and API paths, ships an API helper script, and routes requests to the cluster, tenant and extension skills.

  • Asking how KubeSphere's apiserver, controller manager and console fit together
  • SKILL.md covers Overview, Core Architecture, Core Components and API, plus 2 more sections
  • Runs Python scripts from its folder; calls python and pip
  • Calling the KubeSphere API on a specific member cluster

What it does

This is the entry skill for KubeSphere, a Kubernetes-based platform whose 4.x releases use a microkernel plus extensions design. It describes the three core components: ks-apiserver, which aggregates APIs and handles authentication, authorization and multi-cluster routing; ks-controller-manager, which reconciles resources such as workspaces, projects and users; and ks-console, the React web interface.

For API work it explains the two path prefixes, `/apis/` for the target cluster's kube-apiserver and `/kapis/` for KubeSphere's own API server, and the `/clusters/{cluster-name}/` prefix that forwards a call to a member cluster. The bundled `scripts/ks_api.py` logs in and makes calls, using `requests` and a `KUBESPHERE_HOST` variable. Requests about multi-cluster, multi-tenant or extension management are passed to the kubesphere-cluster-management, kubesphere-multi-tenant-management and kubesphere-extension-management skills.

When your agent uses it

  • Asking how KubeSphere's apiserver, controller manager and console fit together
  • Calling the KubeSphere API on a specific member cluster
  • Deciding which KubeSphere skill handles a cluster, tenant or extension request

Example prompts

  • “List the namespaces in the demo workspace on the member-1 cluster through the KubeSphere API.”
  • “Which KubeSphere component handles workspace and project lifecycle?”
  • “Log in to our KubeSphere host with the helper script and show the token info.”

Requirements

  • Python with the `requests` package
  • A reachable KubeSphere host set in `KUBESPHERE_HOST`
  • KubeSphere login credentials

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 04a29b5. 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

    Ships 1 file in scripts/ (Python), which the agent can run.

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • python
    • pip

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

  • Network

    Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):

    • dev-guide.kubesphere.io
    • kubesphere.io
    • docs.kubesphere.co

    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

KubeSphere Core Router loads about 1.3k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 86 tokens; SKILL.md has 235 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~86
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.3k

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); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 235 words (~1,326 tokens).

“KubeSphere is a distributed operating system for cloud-native application management built on Kubernetes. Version 4.x adopts a microkernel + extension architecture (codename LuBan) where the core provides essential functions and independent functional modules are delivered as extensions.”
