Pattern: Helm Chart Patterns
Purpose
Provides production-grade Helm chart patterns for packaging, deploying, and managing Kubernetes applications across multiple environments with GitOps workflows.
Supplements
Supplements infrastructure knowledge pack with Helm chart-specific patterns.
Stack Compatibility
- Helm: ≥ 3.12
- Kubernetes: ≥ 1.26
- GitOps: ArgoCD ≥ 2.8 or Flux v2 (HelmRelease CRD)
- Orchestration: Helmfile ≥ 0.156
- Values strictness:
required/failtemplate funcs for fail-fast validation
Patterns Index
| Pattern | Use case | File |
| :--- | :--- | :--- |
| Chart Structure | Canonical chart layout, Chart.yaml, _helpers.tpl, deployment template | references/examples-chart-structure.md |
| Values Template | Complete values.yaml with image, resources, probes, ingress, autoscaling | references/examples-values-template.md |
| Multi-Environment | values-dev.yaml / values-staging.yaml / values-prod.yaml overlays | references/examples-multi-environment.md |
| Dependencies | Subchart management in Chart.yaml, alias and import-values configuration | references/examples-dependencies.md |
| Testing | helm test hooks, post-deployment connection + API tests | references/examples-testing.md |
| GitOps Integration | ArgoCD Application / ApplicationSet, Flux HelmRelease | references/examples-gitops.md |
| Helmfile | Multi-chart orchestration, helmfile.yaml, usage commands | references/examples-helmfile.md |
When to Open an Example File
Open a specific references/examples-<pattern>.md only when implementing that pattern. The Patterns Index is enough to decide which file applies; each example file carries the complete chart fragments.
References
All pattern examples live under references/examples-*.md next to this SKILL.md. The naming convention is examples-<slug>.md where <slug> matches the third column of the Patterns Index above.
