GitOps Workflow

Installation

1. 1
   Make sure Claude is on your device and in your terminal.

   Skills load from ~/.claude/skills/ when Claude Code starts up — so you need it on your machine first. If you don't have it yet, install it once with the command below, then run claude in any terminal to verify.

   One-time setup

   Copy

   npm i -g @anthropic-ai/claude-code

   Already have it? Skip ahead.

2. 2
   Paste into Claude Code or into your terminal.

   Install

   Sign up to copy

   This copies the whole skill folder into ~/.claude/skills/gitops-workflow-wshobson/ — the SKILL.md plus any scripts, reference docs, or templates the skill ships with. Safe default: works for every skill.

   Faster alternative (instruction-only skills)

   Skips the clone and grabs only the SKILL.md file. Don't use this if the skill ships Python scripts, reference markdowns, or asset templates — they won't be downloaded and the skill will fail when it tries to load them.

   Quick install (SKILL.md only)

3. 3
   Restart Claude Code.

   Quit and reopen Claude Code (or any other agent that loads from ~/.claude/skills/). New skills are picked up on startup.

4. 4
   Just ask Claude.

   Skills auto-activate when your request matches the skill's description — no slash command needed. Trigger phrases live in the skill's own frontmatter; you can read them in the “What this skill does” section above.

Prefer to read the source first? Open on GitHub.

When Claude uses it

Teaches Claude to implement Git-based continuous delivery for Kubernetes using ArgoCD or Flux CD, following the OpenGitOps principles of declarative, versioned, pulled, and continuously reconciled state. It supplies installation steps, a standard gitops-repo layout, ready-to-edit Application/Kustomization manifests, and auto-sync policies with prune and self-heal. Reach for it when bootstrapping GitOps on a cluster, wiring the App-of-Apps pattern, adding canary or blue-green rollouts, or keeping secrets out of Git with External Secrets or Sealed Secrets.
