About this skill

What it does. Collects GKE context, inspects pod states, controller conditions, namespace events and application logs, then checks service endpoints and network policies for connectivity failures. It classifies causes such as crashes, OOM kills, probe failures, image pull errors and scheduling issues, producing reviewable manifest patches and commands without applying live mutations.

When to use it. For workloads in GKE that are pending, repeatedly crashing, unable to pull images or failing to start. It does not cover cluster infrastructure provisioning, node pool creation or non-Kubernetes Google Cloud services.
