Use when: user wants to create or improve Helm charts, design values.yaml files, implement template helpers, audit chart security (RBAC, network policies, pod security), manage subcharts, or run helm lint/test.
To provide an opinionated and production-grade workflow for creating, auditing, and improving Helm charts with sensible defaults and security-first principles.
Features
- Scaffolds production-ready Helm charts with best-practice structure.
- Analyzes existing charts for issues like hardcoded values, template anti-patterns, and missing labels.
- Audits charts for security vulnerabilities including RBAC, network policies, and pod security contexts.
- Provides guidance on values.yaml design, template patterns, and dependency management.
- Includes CLI tools for automated chart structure and values validation.
Use Cases
- When creating a new Helm chart for a Kubernetes application.
- When reviewing an existing Helm chart for quality and security improvements.
- When designing or validating a `values.yaml` file for a chart.
- When ensuring Helm charts adhere to security best practices (RBAC, pod security).
Non-Goals
- Serving as a comprehensive Helm tutorial.
- Automating the deployment of Helm charts to Kubernetes.
- Building container images for the applications being charted.
