cluster-planning

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps you turn raw homelab cluster survey data into a clear deployment strategy, showing what your hardware can support today and what to add next.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Hardware profiling: Classifies a cluster into practical tiers based on node count, RAM, storage, and readiness for K3s workloads.
• Phased planning: Recommends an ordered rollout for foundations, services, observability, AI, security, and high-availability control planes.
• Node assignment: Suggests which machines should host control-plane, AI, and worker roles based on latency, memory, and storage performance.
• Buying guidance: Translates gaps in capability into concrete purchase recommendations for more RAM, faster storage, HA control-plane, or local inference.
• Learning roadmap: Maps infrastructure maturity to skill-building paths so the cluster doubles as an education platform.

Quick Start

Use the cluster-planning skill to analyze my surveyed nodes and generate a phased deployment roadmap with node role assignments, tier recommendations, and what hardware I should buy next.
