CC implementing-rbac-hardening-for-kubernetes
Hardens Kubernetes RBAC by designing least-privilege Roles and ClusterRoles, auditing RoleBindings, eliminating cluster-admin sprawl, separating service accounts, and integrating an external OIDC identity provider. Use when tightening cluster access control, removing excessive ClusterRoleBindings, or hardening service-account permissions against escalation and lateral movement. Keywords: RBAC, Role, ClusterRole, RoleBinding, least privilege, service account, OIDC, cluster-admin. Do not use for discovering existing escalation paths - use auditing-kubernetes-rbac-privilege-escalation.

As a process C 62/100 · 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 62/100
- 0Result and completion. Does not say what the result is
- 0Failures and branches. Linear process with no failure handling
- 0Progress reporting. Says nothing while it works
- 30Running it twice. 2 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. 12 steps
- 100Consistency. Name and required fields are in place
- 100Execution cost. Instruction body is 1749 tokens
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
- +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
- +3Description length 589: enough signal without eating the budget
- +4Structure: 19 headings
- +3Step-by-step instructions: 12 items
- +4Has examples (11 code blocks)
- +1License stated
