What it does

Oke Multihome Deployer is an agent skill from oracle/skills, published by the product's own GitHub organization. Deploy and troubleshoot multihome networking on OCI Kubernetes Engine using existing GVA secondary VNIC node pools, Multus thick plugin, OCI CNI/IPAM, NetworkAttachmentDefinitions, and test pods. Use when the user asks to auto-discover OKE cluster subnets or node pools for multihome, create OKE multihome pod manifests, configure Multus NADs for secondary VNIC interfaces, validate multihomed pod connectivity, inspect OCI CNI IPAM allocation on OKE nodes, or package repeatable OKE GVA multihome deployment steps. Do…

Its SKILL.md is about 1.8k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 9 other files, including scripts and reference files (for example `agents/openai.yaml`, `references/oke-dpdk-mlx5-notes.md` and `references/oke-multihome-notes.md`).

It sits in DevOps & Cloud, covering Container orchestration and Deployment. It works with Kubernetes. The repository describes itself as: Oracle Skills is a curated, open-source collection of practical, installable skills for working with Oracle technologies. It provides developers, administrators, and AI agents…

When your agent uses it

  • The user asks to auto-discover OKE cluster subnets
  • Node pools for multihome
  • Create OKE multihome pod manifests
  • Configure Multus NADs for secondary VNIC interfaces

Example prompts

  • “/oke-multihome-deployer”

Requirements

  • Python 3
  • Docker

Workflow steps

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

  1. Confirm target cluster/context and auth.
  2. Auto-discover cluster, node pool, and subnet data before generating YAML.
  3. Verify prerequisites from Kubernetes and node-side checks.
  4. Install Multus thick plugin if absent.
  5. Generate or edit the deployment manifest.
  6. Apply and verify.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 6c57a52. 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 2 files in scripts/ (Python), which the agent can run.

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • kubectl
    • python3

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

  • Network

    Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:

    • raw.githubusercontent.com

    Also links to:

    • docs.oracle.com
    • github.com
    • cni.dev
    • kubernetes.io

    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

Oke Multihome Deployer loads about 1.8k tokens when it runs, and up to ~4k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 174 tokens; SKILL.md has 598 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~174
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.8k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~4k

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 (UPL-1.0) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 598 words (~1,814 tokens).

“Use this skill after an OKE node pool already has GVA secondary VNIC profiles attached. This skill deploys and verifies Multus-based pod multihoming; it does not create or update GVA node pools.”
