Developer Tool Workflows

Analyzes and correlates live Infrahub data via the MCP server — answers operational questions, detects drift, and investigates impact. TRIGGER when: querying infrastructure data, checking compliance, investigating change impact, producing ad-hoc reports. DO NOT TRIGGER when: writing automated checks, building transforms, designing schemas, populating data files. ALWAYS pass the user's question verbatim as args — this skill runs in a forked context and cannot see the parent conversation. Invoking without args will fail.

Audits an Infrahub repository against best practices and rules, producing a structured compliance report. TRIGGER when: reviewing repo for compliance, onboarding to existing project, pre-deployment validation, catching issues. DO NOT TRIGGER when: creating schemas, writing checks/generators, querying live data, populating objects.

Collect a redacted local diagnostic bundle (logs, config, version, state) for an OpsMill expert hand-off. TRIGGER when: Infrahub is broken/failing/erroring, the user asks for help debugging, wants to collect logs/diagnostics, prepares a hand-off for OpsMill support, or reports a crash/timeout/connection issue (upgrade failure, stuck branch, container CrashLoopBackOff, 500s, OOM). DO NOT TRIGGER when: filing a public GitHub issue (use infrahub-reporting-issues), or running operational queries (use infrahub-analyzing-data).

Shared references and cross-cutting rules for all Infrahub skills — GraphQL syntax, .infrahub.yml format, and common patterns. DO NOT TRIGGER directly — loaded automatically by other Infrahub skills when they need shared references.

Converts CSV/TSV inputs into Infrahub object YAML and loads them onto a fresh branch. Handles a single file, a folder of files, an explicit list of paths, and one-big-denormalized-sheet exports. TRIGGER when: importing CSV, loading CSV/TSV into Infrahub, ingesting spreadsheet data, converting CSV to Infrahub objects, splitting a denormalized CSV across multiple kinds. DO NOT TRIGGER when: running infrahubctl import load against an LDJSON dump (different format and tool), designing or modifying schemas (this skill is read-only against the schema and fails closed on unmapped columns), exporting data from Infrahub (use infrahubctl object get -o csv for single-kind export), or ingesting JSON/XLSX (v1 is CSV+TSV only).

Creates Infrahub check definitions — Python validation logic, GraphQL queries, and YAML-driven tests for proposed change pipelines. TRIGGER when: writing validation checks, creating Python checks, building data quality guards for proposed changes, writing or running tests for a check. DO NOT TRIGGER when: designing schemas, querying live data, building transforms or generators.

Creates Infrahub Generators — design-driven automation that builds infrastructure objects from templates and topology definitions. TRIGGER when: building design-to-implementation workflows, auto-creating objects from templates, topology-driven generation. DO NOT TRIGGER when: designing schemas, writing data transforms, querying live data, populating static data files.

Creates Infrahub custom navigation menus for the web UI sidebar, organizing node types into logical groups. TRIGGER when: designing sidebar menus, grouping node types in UI, customizing Infrahub web interface navigation. DO NOT TRIGGER when: designing schemas, writing checks or transforms, populating data objects.

Creates and manages Infrahub object data YAML files for populating infrastructure instances — devices, locations, organizations, and modules. TRIGGER when: creating device instances, populating data files, defining locations or organizations, adding infrastructure objects. DO NOT TRIGGER when: designing schemas, writing Python checks/generators, querying live data.

Creates, validates, and modifies Infrahub schema YAML files — nodes, generics, attributes, relationships, and extensions. TRIGGER when: designing data models, adding schema nodes, validating schema definitions, planning schema migrations, modeling file objects / attachments / uploads (storing PDFs, diagrams, images, certificates, documents as Infrahub objects). DO NOT TRIGGER when: populating data objects, writing checks/generators/transforms, querying live data.

Creates Infrahub transforms that convert data into JSON, text, CSV, or device configs using Python or Jinja2 templates, with YAML-driven tests. TRIGGER when: building config generation, data export, format conversion, Jinja2 templates, artifact pipelines, writing or running tests for a transform. DO NOT TRIGGER when: designing schemas, writing validation checks, creating generators, querying live data.

Reports bugs and feature requests against the right Infrahub-ecosystem GitHub repository. Classifies the request, routes it (with the main opsmill/infrahub repo as the safe fallback when in doubt), searches for existing duplicates, gathers conservative environment info for bugs, and prepares the issue for the user to review before any submission. TRIGGER when: user wants to report a bug, file an issue, request a feature, open a ticket, or escalate a problem in any opsmill/infrahub- project (SDK, Ansible, VS Code, MCP, Helm, schema-library, sync, backup, nornir, skills). DO NOT TRIGGER when: the user wants to fix the bug themselves locally, write a test, or debug code without filing.
