CC implementing-pod-security-admission-controller
Configures and operates the Kubernetes Pod Security Admission (PSA) controller that enforces Pod Security Standards: namespace enforce/audit/warn labels, cluster-wide defaults via AdmissionConfiguration, exemptions for usernames, runtime classes and namespaces, version pinning, and troubleshooting pods the controller rejected. Use when wiring PSA up on a cluster, setting cluster-wide default enforcement, exempting system namespaces, debugging why a pod was rejected or why enforcement is not firing, or reading PSA audit and warning output. Keywords: Pod Security Admission, PSA, admission controller, AdmissionConfiguration, pod-security.kubernetes.io labels, enforce audit warn, exemptions, kube-apiserver. Do not use for choosing which security profile a workload needs - use implementing-kubernetes-pod-security-standards.

As a process C 64/100 · Has gaps — weak spots: result and completion, failures and branches, running it twice
How to improve
- Your own cases (evals/evals.json, 4–6 real requests with expected answers): the full check would then run those instead of a model-drafted suite.
- A spec.yaml with trigger phrases and assertions — a behaviour contract for CI; `skilltest init` writes a template.

Process rating: all ten parameters 64/100
- 0Result and completion. Does not say what the result is
- 0Failures and branches. Linear process with no failure handling
- 30Running it twice. 1 mutating operations with no state check
- 50When it triggers. No condition that starts the skill
- 70Inputs and preconditions. Inputs and preconditions are listed
- 100Tools and files. No external tools needed
- 100Steps. 24 steps
- 100Consistency. Name and required fields are in place
- 100Execution cost. Instruction body is 2143 tokens
- 100Progress reporting. Reports progress
- low 12 top-level sections: this looks like several domains in one skill
Everything here is measured from the skill text rather than judged by a model, so the numbers are checkable. A parameter weighs more when it is a more common reason for the process to stall.
Quality signals
- +5Description has no quoted example phrases that should trigger the skill
- +3Description length 830: 120–800 characters recommended
- +3Output format is not stated: the model decides each time
- -43 reference files, but SKILL.md never points to them: the model will not open them
- -32 of 2 scripts are never mentioned in SKILL.md
- +2Single-language instructions
- +4Description says when NOT to use the skill
- +4Structure: 26 headings
- +3Step-by-step instructions: 24 items
- +4Has examples (15 code blocks)
- +1License stated
Quality base 70; lint remarks subtract, signals add up to 100. Result: 76.
