Does it support multi-container pods?

Yes, it includes patterns for sidecar containers, init containers, and shared volumes within a single Deployment manifest for complex application architectures.

Does this skill handle sensitive data?

It generates templates for Secrets but advises using external tools like Vault or Sealed Secrets for production credential management to avoid plain-text storage.

Can I customize the resource limits?

Yes, the generator provides sensible defaults for CPU and memory requests and limits that can be easily adjusted based on your specific workload requirements.

How do I validate the generated manifests?

The skill provides specific CLI commands for dry-run validation, linting with kube-linter, and security scoring with kube-score to ensure manifests are valid before deployment.
