Activation
This is the description your AI agent reads to decide when to run this skill — the better it matches your request, the more reliably it fires.
Install and manage cluster add-ons (Karpenter, etc.). Use when user wants to install Karpenter, configure cluster add-ons, or enable additional cluster features.Key capabilities
- →Check the installation status of Karpenter
- →Install Karpenter for HyperPod clusters
- →Enable auto-scaling for a cluster
- →Poll for Karpenter installation completion
- →Inform the user about installation progress
How it works
The skill first checks if Karpenter is already installed. If not, it initiates the installation and then polls for its completion every 60 seconds until the installation is confirmed.
Inputs & outputs
When to use cluster-addons
- →Install Karpenter
- →Configure cluster auto-scaling
- →Verify add-on status
About this skill
Karpenter Installation
When to use
User wants to install HyperPod Karpenter or enable auto-scaling for the cluster.
Steps
- Call
karpenter_get_statusto check if already installed - If already installed, inform user and show current status
- If not installed, call
karpenter_install - Inform user: installation is async, takes 2-5 minutes
- Poll
karpenter_get_statusevery 60 seconds (callwait_seconds(60)between polls) untilinstalled: true - Show final status to user
Rules
- No user input needed for installation
- Always check status first before installing
- Must poll until installation completes
When not to use it
- →When user input is required for installation, as this skill does not support it
- →When the add-on is not Karpenter or a similar cluster auto-scaling tool
- →When the cluster is not a HyperPod cluster
Limitations
- →No user input is needed or supported for installation.
- →The skill only supports Karpenter installation.
- →Installation is asynchronous and takes 2-5 minutes.
How it compares
This skill automates the installation and status monitoring of Karpenter, providing a guided, asynchronous process for cluster auto-scaling setup, unlike manual installation and verification.
