EKS Operation Review
This skill performs a structured 10-section operational assessment of a live EKS cluster, producing a rated report with prioritized recommendations.
When to use
Activate for any request to audit, review, health-check, or score an EKS cluster's operational posture — including section-scoped reviews of individual areas (e.g., "check my EKS networking", "review RBAC on my cluster").
Not for: upgrade readiness assessments, cluster discovery, or architectural design advice. General Kubernetes questions, AWS troubleshooting, cluster creation, and one-off kubectl commands should be handled directly without this skill.
Instructions
Read and follow ~/.claude/apex-steering/workflows/eks-operation-review.md — it contains the full workflow, tool usage rules, and steering file map. Load each steering file from references/ before running its corresponding section.
Prerequisites
- AWS credentials with EKS read access
- Python 3.10+ and uv installed
- EKS MCP server configured (see the
eks-mcp-serverskill for setup); apex does not ship a project-root.mcp.json
