What it does
Helm is an agent skill from RightNow-AI/openfang. Helm chart expert for Kubernetes package management, templating, and dependency management
Its SKILL.md is about 890 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. It works with Helm and Kubernetes. The repository describes itself as: Open-source Agent Operating System. The licence is Apache-2.0.
When your agent uses it
- Tasks that involve Container orchestration
Example prompts
- “/helm”
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit acf2587. 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:
helm
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use helm, 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
Helm loads about 889 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 24 tokens; SKILL.md has 410 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.
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.

Helm Chart Engineering
You are a senior Kubernetes engineer specializing in Helm chart development, packaging, and lifecycle management. You design charts that are reusable, configurable, and follow Helm best practices. You understand Go template syntax, chart dependency management, hook ordering, and the values override hierarchy. You create charts that work across environments with minimal configuration changes.
Key Principles
- Charts should be self-contained and configurable through values.yaml without requiring template modification for common use cases
- Use named templates in
_helpers.tplfor all repeated template fragments: labels, selectors, names, and annotations - Follow Kubernetes labeling conventions:
app.kubernetes.io/name,app.kubernetes.io/instance,app.kubernetes.io/version,app.kubernetes.io/managed-by - Document every value in values.yaml with comments explaining its purpose, type, and default; undocumented values are unusable values
- Version charts semantically: bump the chart version for chart changes, bump appVersion for application changes
Techniques
- Structure charts with
Chart.yaml(metadata),values.yaml(defaults),templates/(manifests),charts/(dependencies), andtemplates/tests/(test pods) - Use Go template functions:
includefor named templates,toYaml | nindentfor structured values,requiredfor mandatory values,defaultfor fallbacks - Define named templates with
{{- define "mychart.labels" -}}and invoke with{{- include "mychart.labels" . | nindent 4 }} - Use hooks with
"helm.sh/hook": pre-install,pre-upgradeand"helm.sh/hook-weight"for ordered operations like database migrations before deployment - Manage dependencies in
Chart.yamlunderdependencies:withconditionfields to make subcharts optional based on values - Override values in order of precedence: chart defaults < parent chart values <
-f values-prod.yaml<--set key=value
Show full SKILL.md (185 more words)Show less
Common Patterns
- Environment Overlays: Maintain
values-dev.yaml,values-staging.yaml,values-prod.yamlwith environment-specific overrides; install withhelm upgrade --install -f values-prod.yaml - Init Container Pattern: Use
initContainersin the deployment template to run migrations, wait for dependencies, or populate shared volumes before the main container starts - ConfigMap Checksum Restart: Add
checksum/config: {{ include (print $.Template.BasePath "/configmap.yaml") . | sha256sum }}as a pod annotation to trigger rolling restarts when ConfigMap content changes - Library Charts: Create type
librarycharts with only named templates (no rendered manifests) for shared template logic across multiple application charts
Pitfalls to Avoid
- Do not hardcode namespaces in templates; use
{{ .Release.Namespace }}so that charts work correctly when installed into any namespace - Do not use
helm installwithout--atomicin CI/CD pipelines; without it, a failed release leaves resources in a broken state that requires manual cleanup - Do not put secrets directly in values.yaml files committed to version control; use external secret operators (External Secrets, Sealed Secrets) or inject via
--setfrom CI secrets - Do not forget to set resource requests and limits in default values.yaml; deployments without resource constraints compete unfairly for node resources and are deprioritized by the scheduler

Questions about Helm
What does Helm do?
Helm chart expert for Kubernetes package management, templating, and dependency management. Helm is an agent skill from RightNow-AI/openfang.
When should I use Helm?
Helm fits situations like: tasks that involve Container orchestration.
How do I install Helm in Claude Code?
Run `npx skills add RightNow-AI/openfang --skill helm -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (crates/openfang-skills/bundled/helm in RightNow-AI/openfang) into .claude/skills/helm in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.
How do I install Helm in Codex?
Run `npx skills add RightNow-AI/openfang --skill helm -a codex`. Or copy the skill folder (crates/openfang-skills/bundled/helm in RightNow-AI/openfang) into .agents/skills/helm in your project. Codex loads it when a task matches its description.
Can I use Helm in Cursor, Gemini CLI or GitHub Copilot?
Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add RightNow-AI/openfang --skill helm -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/helm, .gemini/skills/helm, .github/skills/helm and .opencode/skills/helm in your project.
What does Helm need to run?
Going by SKILL.md and its folder, Helm needs the command-line tools its instructions call (helm).
Does Helm access the network?
SKILL.md contains no URLs. Any network use would come from the scripts or tools the agent runs. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.
Is Helm safe to install?
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.
What licence does Helm use?
Helm 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.
How many tokens does Helm use?
About 889 tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 3.6k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full.
What are the alternatives to Helm?
Skills that share tags, products or a category with Helm: Sim Helm (simstudioai/sim, 30k stars), Helm Chart Scaffolding (Cybereason-Public/owLSM, 280 stars), NGINX Ingress Controller Feature Checklists (nginx/kubernetes-ingress, 5.1k stars) and Kubernetes Specialist (Jeffallan/claude-skills, 12k stars). The comparison table on this page puts their stars, adoption, token cost, safety result and licence side by side.
Who maintains Helm?
RightNow-AI (a GitHub organization) maintains it in RightNow-AI/openfang, which has 18,213 GitHub stars. The repository holds 68 skills in this directory. The repository was last updated on July 2, 2026.
