SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Manually checking the health of a complex Kubernetes-based platform involves numerous commands and tools (ArgoCD, kubectl, cert-manager, Istio). This skill centralizes and automates these checks, providing a rapid, comprehensive overview of the Kagenti platform's operational status, saving significant time during deployments and incident response.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Comprehensive Status Overview: Get a single-command health report covering ArgoCD apps, pods, services, and certificates.
  • Pre-Deployment Validation: Ensure the platform is stable before introducing new changes.
  • Rapid Incident Triage: Quickly identify degraded components during an outage.
  • Use Case: Before deploying a new version of an AI agent, you want to confirm that all core platform services are Healthy and Synced. Use this skill to run a full platform health check and get a clear status report.

FAQPage Schema
How do I check the health of my Kubernetes platform across all components?

Platform health checks aggregate status across ArgoCD apps, pods, services, and certificates in a single command. This skill provides comprehensive visibility into your Kagenti platform's operational state, covering deployments, networking, and security configurations without running multiple tools separately.

Can I validate platform stability before deploying new versions?

Yes. Pre-deployment validation confirms all core services are Healthy and Synced before introducing changes. Run a full platform health check to verify ArgoCD sync status, pod readiness, and certificate validity, reducing deployment risk.

What should I check when troubleshooting a Kubernetes outage?

Rapid incident triage requires checking ArgoCD health and sync status, pod health across namespaces, gateway and certificate validation, and Istio mTLS configuration. This skill centralizes these diagnostics to identify degraded components quickly during an outage.

Does this work with ArgoCD, Istio, and cert-manager?

Yes. The skill diagnoses ArgoCD app status, validates Istio mTLS configuration, checks cert-manager certificates, and verifies OAuth authentication across your Kagenti platform, covering the full observability stack.

How do I know if my platform certificates and OAuth are misconfigured?

Certificate validation and OAuth authentication checks are included in the health report. The skill detects certificate expiration, gateway misconfigurations, and authentication failures alongside pod and service status.

Can I use this during regular monitoring or only after deployments?

Platform health checks apply across multiple stages: pre-deployment validation, post-restart baseline health checks, regular monitoring, incident investigations, and on-demand health verification. Use it whenever you need a comprehensive platform status overview.
