huawei-cloud-kubectl-cce-installer
Query specific Kubernetes resources in Huawei Cloud CCE clusters through kubectl cce. Trigger when users ask to get, describe, inspect, or view a Pod, workload, Service, ConfigMap, node, namespace, or other CCE Kubernetes resource, or when they ask to install or repair the local kubectl-cce prerequisites. Install kubectl and kubectl-cce only when they are missing locally.

What does this agent skill do?
Huawei Cloud CCE Kubectl Resource Query
Use this skill to retrieve specific CCE Kubernetes resources through kubectl cce. Resource access is the primary task. Local installation is only a
prerequisite recovery step when kubectl or the kubectl-cce plugin is unavailable.
Overview And Safety
- Use
kubectl cce; do not use a direct Kubernetes API client. - Read-only commands only:
get,describe, andlogs. - Never use
-A,--all-namespaces, or another whole-cluster resource query. - For namespaced resources, require
--namespace <namespace>and, where feasible, a specific resource name. - For cluster-scoped resources such as
node,namespace,persistentvolume, andstorageclass, require an exact resource name. Do not list every instance. - Never run
apply,create,delete,edit,patch,replace,scale,rollout,cordon,drain, orexec. - Do not print credentials, tokens, kubeconfig content, or Secret data.
Prerequisites And Required Context
| Input | Requirement |
|---|---|
cluster_id | Required standard UUID. An exact name may be resolved with hcloud CCE ListClusters, but never run kubectl cce until it resolves to one UUID. |
region | Required. Obtain it from the request or current context, then HW_REGION_NAME; otherwise ask the user. |
| Resource kind | Required, for example pod, deployment, service, configmap, or node. |
| Namespace or exact name | At least one is required. Namespaced resources require a namespace; cluster-scoped resources require an exact name. |
Credentials follow the plugin rules in plugin-usage.md. Use explicit --cli-access-key, --cli-secret-key, and optional
--cli-security-token only when the caller supplies them. Do not fall back to other credentials in that case.
Workflow
-
Before any resource query, validate the target region and cluster ID. If either is missing, or the cluster ID cannot be resolved to one existing UUID in that region, do not run
kubectl cce; ask the user to provide the correct region and cluster ID. -
Confirm the resource kind, namespace, and exact resource name when required.
-
Check local prerequisites:
bash scripts/install_kubectl_cce.sh --check -
When both
kubectlandkubectl-cceare available, query the requested resource. -
When either executable is missing, read installation.md, then show the installer plan. Installation or replacement is an R1 local change and requires explicit confirmation:
bash scripts/install_kubectl_cce.sh --bin-dir <directory> sudo bash scripts/install_kubectl_cce.sh --execute --bin-dir <directory> -
Verify installation with
kubectl version --clientandkubectl plugin list, then run only the requested read-only resource query.
Core Commands
Use one explicit namespace per namespaced query:
kubectl cce --cluster-id <cluster-id> --region <region> \
get pod <pod-name> --namespace <namespace> -o yaml
kubectl cce --cluster-id <cluster-id> --region <region> \
describe deployment <deployment-name> --namespace <namespace>
kubectl cce --cluster-id <cluster-id> --region <region> \
get service <service-name> --namespace <namespace> -o yaml
For a cluster-scoped resource, use an exact name:
kubectl cce --cluster-id <cluster-id> --region <region> \
get node <node-name> -o yaml
For credential modes, command forms, and x509 retry behavior, read plugin-usage.md. For Windows usage and installation
fallbacks, read installation.md. If a command fails with an x509 upstream TLS validation error, retry that same command once
with --cce-insecure-upstream-tls=true immediately after cce.
Risk Levels
| Operation | Level | Guidance |
|---|---|---|
| Resource query and local prerequisite check | R3 | May run automatically. |
| Local binary installation, source build, or plugin replacement | R1 | Preview first and require explicit confirmation before --execute. |
Output Format
Return the cluster ID, region, resource kind, namespace when applicable, resource name, and requested status or fields. State clearly whether the resource is not found, access is denied, prerequisites are missing, or an installation confirmation is needed.
Parameters And Confirmation
Confirm cluster_id, region, resource kind, namespace, and exact resource name before issuing a query. If cluster_id is missing or cannot be resolved in
the supplied region, stop and ask the user for the correct region and cluster ID. Confirm the target installation directory before any --execute action.
Verification
After installation, run kubectl version --client and kubectl plugin list; after a query, verify that the returned resource identity matches the requested cluster, namespace, and name.
Best Practices
Use the narrowest requested resource query and avoid broad list operations even when the caller can access the whole cluster.
Notes
When the requested resource cannot be scoped to a namespace or exact name, ask the user to narrow the target instead of expanding to a cluster-wide query.
