Kubernetes & Cloud Ops Prompts
Operate clusters like an SRE who's seen it break.
Running workloads on Kubernetes: pod inspection and exec (with the RBAC-verb gotchas), right-sizing requests/limits and fixing OOMKills, storage/PVC reclamation, service routing and ingress/TLS, safe autoscaling, secret wiring, and cluster health & cost audits. 16 distinct prompts across 6 categories, distilled from 178 real Kubernetes and GKE operations sessions across the xentropy agent fleet (measured, single-owner attribution). Every prompt encodes an operational pattern the fleet actually hit — RBAC verbs, OOM limits, PVC quota, cert issuance, dev-vs-prod secrets.
What's Inside
- ▸Pod inspection, exec, and the RBAC create-verb gotcha
- ▸Right-sizing requests/limits & fixing OOMKilled workloads
- ▸Pending / unschedulable pod diagnosis
- ▸PVC storage reclamation & volume-bind debugging
- ▸Service routing, endpoints, and ingress/TLS certificate issues
- ▸Autoscaling with HPAs and PodDisruptionBudgets
- ▸Secrets/config wiring (the dev-vs-prod selection gotcha)
- ▸CronJobs, cluster health, waste and cost audits

Published verbatim from the pack: “Fix an RBAC permission error” — When Kubernetes says forbidden and you want least-privilege, not cluster-admin.
I'm getting {{forbidden / permission error}} doing {{action}} as
{{user/serviceaccount}}. Give me the exact fix:
1. Name the precise verb + resource the action requires (people under-scope
this — e.g. exec needs `create` on `pods/exec`, not just `get`).
2. The minimal Role/ClusterRole + binding to grant it (least privilege).
3. Apply it in BOTH the live cluster AND the gitops/manifest source so it
survives the next reconcile.
Output the RBAC yaml and the apply/commit steps.Why it works: RBAC errors are almost always a missing specific verb; fixing only the live cluster (not gitops) means it silently reverts.
Every prompt in the pack ships with a when-to-use line and a why-it-works note like this one.
