Galileo On-Prem Stack Setup

SkillCloud & infra

Inspect, render, connected-preflight, and observe a pinned Galileo On-Prem galileo-stack deployment on Kubernetes; produce secret-safe evidence and Galileo/CSE joint-session handoffs for every install, upgrade, rollback, uninstall, CRD, galileoctl, GPU, air-gap, and lab-bootstrap change. Use when planning reusable Galileo On-Prem Kubernetes deployment work without unattended mutation.

The instructions your AI receives, as published by chambear2809/splunk-cisco-skills in skills/galileo-on-prem-stack-setup/SKILL.md and read by ahel’s review.

This skill is render-first and handoff-only. It never invokes a mutating Helm, Kubernetes, MicroK8s, CRD, node-label, rollback, or uninstall command. The historical --apply-* flags are permanent fail-closed sentinels.

When to Activate

Use this skill when a Galileo On-Prem Kubernetes deployment needs entitled chart inspection, immutable render evidence, target-bound read-only preflight, status observation, or a Galileo/CSE joint-session handoff. Do not activate it to execute Helm, kubectl, MicroK8s, CRD, upgrade, rollback, or uninstall mutations.

Prerequisites

RequirementWhy it is required
Entitled local galileo-stack chart archive, exact version, and SHA-256The chart is proprietary and release-specific; never infer its values
Version-matched CSE questionnaire and values contractProduct topology and secret paths must come from Galileo, not invented defaults
Runtime-only secret values file, mode 0600 or stricterSecret material is inspected in memory and never copied into the bundle
Named kube context, exact API/CA/cluster/namespace identityConnected evidence must bind one reviewed target
Helm 3, kubectl, Python 3, and PyYAMLRequired for local render and read-only connected inspection
External Galileo/CSE change authorizationThis local skill does not authenticate or replace change approval

Required Intake

Ask for the Galileo instance console URL and record it exactly, for example https://console.demo-v2.galileocloud.io/. Pass it with --galileo-console-url; never assume a Galileo Cloud hostname for on-prem.

Never ask for or repeat passwords in chat. Never put credentials, tokens, private keys, Secret payloads, or credential-bearing URLs in the spec, command line, bundle, plans, evidence, logs, or support output.

Supported Outcomes

  • Safely inspect a pinned umbrella chart and every nested chart for exact dependencies, values/schema flags, images, hooks/migrations, CRDs, API kinds, cluster-scoped objects, routes, and persistence surfaces.
  • Render a content-addressed private bundle containing only non-secret inputs, the exact chart archive, normalized spec, and derived inventories.
  • Run a connected, read-only preflight that binds the target, release state, active CRDs, API discovery, runtime Secret influence, rendered manifests, images, endpoints, storage, routing, monitoring, data services, node pools, Wizard/GPU intent, and air-gap handoff evidence.
  • Observe live status without claiming health or provenance that was not proven. production_ready always remains false in this release.
  • Prepare canonical pre-approval handoff candidates for all lifecycle changes, including official installation methods, upgrades, rollback, retirement, galileoctl, dedicated CRDs, GPU/local inference, air-gap, and MicroK8s lab bootstrap.

The current Installation Guide defines four methods: galileoctl (Method A), umbrella Helm CLI (Method B), deployment script (Method C), and step-by-step (Method D). The galileoctl UI is identified for first install and its CLI is a workstation/CI alternative. This skill recognizes all four methods and can inspect pinned Method A/B chart artifacts. Method C remains incomplete without the exact script/config hashes and static review; Method D remains incomplete without the ordered chart/release/dependency contract. It executes none of the methods. Do not call the raw Helm path vendor-recommended.

Do not use this skill for Galileo projects, datasets, scorers, model-provider configuration, Agent Control ownership, or standalone Luna Studio; route those through their dedicated Galileo skills.

            read-only status observation

Required Workflow

  1. Read reference.md, references/lifecycle-contract.md, and references/coverage-and-safety.md.
  2. Run --inspect-chart. It emits only a runtime inventory and coverage-review.yaml; it does not create a deployable bundle.
  3. Copy every exact reviewed ID into spec.coverage, then run --render.
  4. Run offline validation on the immutable bundle.
  5. Run --preflight --for-action <action> against the exact target with the runtime secret file. Preflight is read-only; server-side dry-run admission checks are non-persisting and are reported separately from observer access.
  6. Give the bundle, canonical redacted evidence, unresolved gates, and exact target/release inventory to the Galileo/CSE operator. The operator executes the vendor-approved command in the jointly controlled session. The emitted handoff-candidate.json is authorized:false; it is not a final approval.
  7. Run --status for retryable read-only observation. Without independently authenticated adoption/provenance evidence it reports an unverified state, never successful production completion.

--apply-install, --apply-upgrade, --apply-rollback, --apply-uninstall, and --apply-lab-bootstrap reject before reading a bundle, opening a kubeconfig, resolving a binary, writing state, or running a subprocess. Planning flags emit manual handoffs only.

Hard Safety Rules

  • Require exact local archives and hashes; never fetch latest or switch installation ownership mid-lifecycle.
  • Keep non-secret and runtime-secret values separate. Reject duplicate YAML keys, aliases, merge keys, unknown spec fields, populated secret-like non-secret fields, and unsafe runtime override paths. Until a version/hash- bound closed CSE values/questionnaire contract is supplied, keep cse_values_contract_missing open even when chart inspection succeeds.
  • Never persist raw Secret bodies or unredacted Helm output. Runtime secret leaves must independently influence only classified Secret payload fields.
  • Shared CRDs must already exist and be semantically exact. Dedicated CRDs are a handoff. Never create, patch, replace, or delete a CRD here.
  • Treat hooks, migrations, operator-created claims, cluster-scoped resources, RBAC, routing/TLS, monitoring, external services, GPU/model artifacts, and air-gap mirrors as review surfaces, not implicit approval.
  • Never delete or alter namespaces, PVCs, PVs, buckets, databases, nodes, labels, load-balancer pools, or release history.
  • A syntactically valid render is not production readiness. Keep explicit gaps such as entitled_chart_integration_unvalidated, cse_values_contract_missing, and live_readonly_integration_unvalidated open until exact artifacts and connected evidence exist.

Troubleshooting

SymptomSafe response
Bundle validation failsPreserve the bundle and render a new one; never edit or rehash it
Runtime inventory driftsReview every new ID and rerender
Shared CRD differsStop and coordinate with the cluster CRD owner and Galileo/CSE
Routing, storage, data-service, monitoring, or GPU proof is incompleteKeep the gate open in the handoff; do not convert an attestation into a pass
An apply flag is rejectedThis is expected; execute only through the reviewed Galileo/CSE joint session
