gke-cost-optimization
From the author
Optimizes GKE costs, rightsizes workloads, and configures Spot VMs, CUDs, cost allocation, and resource quotas. Use when optimizing GKE cluster or workload costs, configuring GKE cost allocation or quotas, rightsizing CPU/memory requests, or selecting Spot VMs and machine types. Don't use for general compute class provisioning or GPU Selection (use gke-compute-classes instead).

- gke-compute-classesgoogle/skillsConfigures, optimizes, and troubleshoots GKE ComputeClasses. Use when configuring Spot VMs with on-demand fallback, targeting specific accelerators (GPUs/TPUs) or machine families, restricting ComputeClass access, or debugging pending pods related to node pool auto-creation. Do not use for cluster-level Node Auto Provisioning configuration or general GKE cluster creation.OfficialPlanning★ 21.5K
- gke-cost-analysisgoogle/skillsAnswer natural language questions and perform analysis on GKE cluster and workload costs using BigQuery billing exports, cost allocation data, and live cluster monitoring metrics. Use when querying GKE costs across projects, namespaces, or workloads, analyzing billing reports in BigQuery (`bq`), checking cluster cost budgets (`gcloud billing`), or diagnosing cost drivers like pod requests vs. actual utilization (`kubectl top`). Don't use for applying cost optimization changes, creating rightsizing manifests (VPA/MPA), or selecting ComputeClasses (use gke-cost-optimization instead).OfficialData★ 21.5K
- google-cloud-waf-cost-optimizationgoogle/skillsEvaluates Google Cloud workloads for cost efficiency and FinOps alignment using the Google Cloud Well-Architected Framework Cost Optimization pillar. Use when the user asks to analyze Google Cloud spend, reduce cloud bills, rightsize resources (for example, Compute, GKE, Storage, Databases), evaluate discount options (for example, CUDs, SUDs, Spot VMs), or eliminate idle capacity. Do not use for standalone product pricing lookups or non-cost architecture design.OfficialDesign★ 21.5K
- gke-productionizegoogle/skillsOrchestrates comprehensive production readiness reviews and assessments for GKE clusters and workloads across scalability, security, reliability, observability, backup/DR, and cost optimization. Use when asked to productionize, prepare, assess, audit, or review a GKE cluster or workload before going live to production. Don't use for deep-dive single-domain implementation (use specific domain skills like gke-workload-scaling, gke-platform-security, gke-workload-security, gke-service-networking, gke-reliability instead).OfficialSecurity★ 21.5K

WHEN: "optimize Azure costs", "reduce cloud spending", "rightsize resources", "find idle resources", "orphaned disk", "deleted VM still charged", "public IP still charging", "reservation utilization", "Savings Plan coverage", "commitment recommendation", "why is pay-as-you-go still charged". DO NOT USE FOR: cost spikes, forecasts, pricing estimates, budgets, or governance.OfficialDevOps★ 3.1K
- bigquery-optimizationgoogle/skillsProvides workflows to optimize BigQuery environments (capacity planning, editions), storage assets (partitioning, clustering, storage lifecycles, billing models), and SQL queries. Use when optimizing cost, modeling Edition migrations, rightsizing reservations, evaluating logical vs. physical storage, designing table partitioning/clustering, generating table DDL, migrating unpartitioned tables, managing partition expiration, optimizing individual SQL queries, or evaluating acceleration structures (search indexes, materialized views, BI Engine). Do not use for raw usage reporting (use bigquery-observability), query execution plan analysis, error troubleshooting, or diagnosing why a specific job was slow (use bigquery-troubleshooting).OfficialData★ 21.5K
