What it does
Kubernetes is an agent skill from sundial-org/awesome-openclaw-skills. Comprehensive Kubernetes and OpenShift cluster management skill covering operations, troubleshooting, manifest generation, security, and GitOps. Use this skill when: (1) Cluster operations: upgrades, backups, node management, scaling, monitoring setup (2) Troubleshooting: pod failures, networking issues, storage problems, performance analysis (3) Creating manifests: Deployments, StatefulSets, Services, Ingress, NetworkPolicies, RBAC (4) Security: audits, Pod Security Standards, RBAC, secrets management…
Its SKILL.md is about 3k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 7 other files, including scripts (for example `scripts/argocd-app-sync.sh`, `scripts/cluster-health-check.sh` and `scripts/generate-manifest.sh`).
It sits in DevOps & Cloud, covering Container orchestration. It works with Kubernetes, Google Kubernetes Engine and Argo CD. The repository describes itself as: Top OpenClaw skills, with the most popular and useful ones.
When your agent uses it
- Cluster operations: upgrades
- Node management
- Monitoring setup
- Troubleshooting: pod failures
Example prompts
- “/kubernetes”
Requirements
- A Bash shell
- Docker
Workflow steps
5 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.
- CLUSTER OPERATIONS
- TROUBLESHOOTING
- MANIFEST GENERATION
- SECURITY
- GITOPS
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit b80cde2. 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 6 files in scripts/ (Shell), which the agent can run.
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
kubectlbashtrivyazawsgcloud
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:
kubernetes.default.svc
Also links to:
kubernetes.iodocs.openshift.comdocs.aws.amazon.comlearn.microsoft.comcloud.google.com
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
Kubernetes loads about 3k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 187 tokens; SKILL.md has 263 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); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.
SKILL.md
Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 263 words (~3,038 tokens).

Questions about Kubernetes
What does Kubernetes do?
Comprehensive Kubernetes and OpenShift cluster management skill covering operations, troubleshooting, manifest generation, security, and GitOps. Kubernetes is an agent skill from sundial-org/awesome-openclaw-skills. Comprehensive Kubernetes and OpenShift cluster management skill covering operations, troubleshooting, manifest generation, security, and GitOps.
When should I use Kubernetes?
Kubernetes fits situations like: cluster operations: upgrades; Node management; monitoring setup; troubleshooting: pod failures.
How do I install Kubernetes in Claude Code?
Run `npx skills add sundial-org/awesome-openclaw-skills --skill kubernetes -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (skills/kubernetes in sundial-org/awesome-openclaw-skills) into .claude/skills/kubernetes in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.
How do I install Kubernetes in Codex?
Run `npx skills add sundial-org/awesome-openclaw-skills --skill kubernetes -a codex`. Or copy the skill folder (skills/kubernetes in sundial-org/awesome-openclaw-skills) into .agents/skills/kubernetes in your project. Codex loads it when a task matches its description.
Can I use Kubernetes 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 sundial-org/awesome-openclaw-skills --skill kubernetes -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/kubernetes, .gemini/skills/kubernetes, .github/skills/kubernetes and .opencode/skills/kubernetes in your project.
What does Kubernetes need to run?
Going by SKILL.md and its folder, Kubernetes needs a shell for the scripts in its folder and the command-line tools its instructions call (kubectl, bash, trivy, az, aws and gcloud). Our summary lists: A Bash shell; Docker.
Does Kubernetes access the network?
SKILL.md names 6 domains. In commands or code: kubernetes.default.svc; the agent is likely to contact it when it follows the instructions. As links in the text: kubernetes.io, docs.openshift.com, docs.aws.amazon.com, learn.microsoft.com and cloud.google.com. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.
Is Kubernetes 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. The check reads SKILL.md only: the scripts in the folder are not scanned, so read them before running anything.
What licence does Kubernetes use?
No licence was found for Kubernetes or its repository. Without one, default copyright applies: ask the author before reusing or redistributing it.
How many tokens does Kubernetes use?
About 3k 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.
What are the alternatives to Kubernetes?
Skills that share tags, products or a category with Kubernetes: Kubernetes Specialist (Jeffallan/claude-skills, 12k stars), Kubernetes Architect (Cybereason-Public/owLSM, 280 stars), Devops (nicepkg/auto-company, 194 stars) and KubeShark for Kubernetes (LukasNiessen/kubernetes-skill, 446 stars). The comparison table on this page puts their stars, adoption, token cost, safety result and licence side by side.
