k8s-cilium

What problem does it solve?

Kubernetes operators often struggle to gain visibility into Cilium-based networking, causing delays when diagnosing policy issues and connectivity problems. This skill provides a guided set of workflows to observe traffic, validate policies, and troubleshoot networking efficiently.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Traffic observation: Inspect L2-L7 flow data across namespaces and pods to understand connectivity.
• Policy troubleshooting: Validate CiliumNetworkPolicy behavior, detect misconfigurations, and reproduce issues.
• Operational workflows: Reuse built-in tooling references to quickly reproduce incidents and verify fixes.

Quick Start

Use the k8s-cilium skill to begin observing and troubleshooting Cilium networks in your Kubernetes cluster. Quick Start: - Confirm Cilium is installed with cilium_detect_tool() and check status with cilium_status_tool(); - Query active flows with hubble_flows_query_tool() for a given namespace; - List policies with cilium_policies_list_tool(namespace) and inspect details with cilium_policy_get_tool(name, namespace).
