ov-foundation/skills/k3s/SKILL.md
k3s binary installer (common base for k3s-server and k3s-agent). Use when building images that need the k3s binary but do NOT want a server/agent service started automatically.

| Install files | layer.yml, tasks: |
| Pinned version | v1.31.11+k3s1 (edit K3S_VERSION in layer.yml vars to cut over) |
Downloads the verified-checksum k3s binary (plus sha256sum from the
release manifest), installs it to /usr/local/bin/k3s, and creates
symlinks for kubectl, crictl, ctr (k3s is multi-call). Installs
runtime dependencies (iptables, conntrack, socat, ethtool,
ca-certificates) via the distro package manager — not via the
upstream curl | sh installer. Deliberate, per R9.
No service is started by this layer. Role selection happens in the
dependent layers /ov-foundation:k3s-server and /ov-foundation:k3s-agent,
which emit systemd units that wrap this binary with the right CLI verb
(k3s server vs k3s agent).
Typically not used directly — compose /ov-foundation:k3s-server or
/ov-foundation:k3s-agent (both depend on this layer).

Claude Code multi-agent support in Overthink — sub-agents, dynamic workflows, and agent teams, and how each drives the existing `ov eval` disposable beds to test and verify. MUST be invoked before authoring or invoking an ov sub-agent / dynamic workflow / agent team, wiring agent-lifecycle hooks, or asking "which primitive should drive the R10 beds?".
tools
Mounts a virtiofs share tagged `workspace` at /workspace inside a VM guest via a systemd .mount unit. Use when a kind:vm entity shares a host directory into the guest and you need it auto-mounted (and re-mounted at every boot).
development
MUST be invoked before any work involving: the `kind: android` schema kind, a `target: android` deploy, the `apk:` layer package format (installing Android apps declaratively), AndroidDeployTarget, an in-pod emulator OR a remote/physical adb-endpoint device, or nested `pod → android` deployment. The first-class Android device + app surface that sits above `ov eval adb`/`appium`.
tools
Use when committing, branching, pushing, merging, tagging, creating PRs, or approving/merging PRs with gh — the feat/-branch, R10-gated, never-force-push landing workflow across the main repo + the plugins submodule + image/<distro> submodules. Covers sync-to-upstream, branch/worktree pruning, the fork+PR path for contributors without write access, and cross-repo @github landing order.
