managing-network-policies
This skill enables Claude to manage Kubernetes network policies and firewall rules. It allows Claude to generate configurations and setup code based on specific requirements and infrastructure. Use this skill when the user requests to create, modify, or analyze network policies for Kubernetes, or when the user mentions "network-policy", "firewall rules", or "Kubernetes security". This skill is useful for implementing best practices and production-ready configurations for network security in a Kubernetes environment.
Best use case
managing-network-policies is best used when you need a repeatable AI agent workflow instead of a one-off prompt.

## Overview This skill empowers Claude to assist with Kubernetes network policy management. It simplifies the creation, modification, and analysis of network policies and firewall rules, ensuring secure and compliant network configurations within Kubernetes clusters. ## How It Works 1. **Receiving User Request**: Claude receives a user request related to Kubernetes network policies or firewall rules. 2. **Invoking network-policy-manager**: Claude invokes the `network-policy-manager` plugin. 3. **Generating Configuration**: The plugin generates the necessary configuration files based on the user's requirements and infrastructure details. ## When to Use This Skill This skill activates when you need to: - Create new Kubernetes network policies. - Modify existing network policies. - Analyze the impact of network policies on Kubernetes cluster security. ## Examples ### Example 1: Creating a New Network Policy User request: "Create a network policy that allows pods with the label app=frontend to access pods with the label app=backend on port 8080." The skill will: 1. Invoke the `network-policy-manager` plugin. 2. Generate a Kubernetes network policy YAML file that implements the requested access control. ### Example 2: Modifying an Existing Network Policy User request: "Modify the existing network policy 'allow-frontend-to-backend' to also allow access on port 8081." The skill will: 1. Invoke the `network-policy-manager` plugin. 2. Generate a modified Kubernetes network policy YAML file with the updated port configuration. ## Best Practices - **Security First**: Always prioritize the principle of least privilege when defining network policies. - **Regular Audits**: Regularly review and update network policies to adapt to evolving security needs. - **Testing**: Thoroughly test network policies in a non-production environment before deploying them to production. ## Integration This skill integrates with other DevOps tools and plugins by generating standard Kubernetes YAML files, which can be applied using `kubectl` or integrated into CI/CD pipelines.

managing-test-environments
This skill enables Claude to manage isolated test environments using Docker Compose, Testcontainers, and environment variables. It is used to create consistent, reproducible testing environments for software projects. Claude should use this skill when the user needs to set up a test environment with specific configurations, manage Docker Compose files for test infrastructure, set up programmatic container management with Testcontainers, manage environment variables for tests, or ensure cleanup after tests. Trigger terms include "test environment", "docker compose", "testcontainers", "environment variables", "isolated environment", "env-setup", and "test setup".
managing-autonomous-development
Enables Claude to manage Sugar's autonomous development workflows. It allows Claude to create tasks, view the status of the system, review pending tasks, and start autonomous execution mode. Use this skill when the user asks to create a new development task using `/sugar-task`, check the system status with `/sugar-status`, review pending tasks via `/sugar-review`, or initiate autonomous development using `/sugar-run`. It provides a comprehensive interface for interacting with the Sugar autonomous development system.
managing-ssltls-certificates
This skill enables Claude to manage and monitor SSL/TLS certificates using the ssl-certificate-manager plugin. It is activated when the user requests actions related to SSL certificates, such as checking certificate expiry, renewing certificates, or listing installed certificates. Use this skill when the user mentions "SSL certificate", "TLS certificate", "certificate expiry", "renew certificate", or similar phrases related to SSL/TLS certificate management. The plugin can list, check, and renew certificates, providing vital information for maintaining secure connections.
managing-snapshot-tests
This skill enables Claude to manage and update snapshot tests using intelligent diff analysis and selective updates. It is triggered when the user asks to analyze snapshot failures, update snapshots, or manage snapshot tests in general. It helps distinguish intentional changes from regressions, selectively update snapshots, and validate snapshot integrity. Use this when the user mentions "snapshot tests", "update snapshots", "snapshot failures", or requests to run "/snapshot-manager" or "/sm". It supports Jest, Vitest, Playwright, and Storybook frameworks.
building-neural-networks
This skill allows Claude to construct and configure neural network architectures using the neural-network-builder plugin.
