AI Skills
What are skills?
Section titled “What are skills?”Skills are structured markdown documents bundled with a lexicon. When an AI agent works in a chant project, it discovers and loads relevant skills automatically — giving it operational knowledge about the Helm chart workflow.
Bundled skill: chant-helm
Section titled “Bundled skill: chant-helm”The chant-helm skill teaches AI agents how to:
- Scaffold new Helm chart projects with
chant init --lexicon helm - Use Helm intrinsics (values proxy, include, printf, toYaml, If/Range/With)
- Build and validate charts with chant + helm CLI
- Debug common issues (unbalanced braces, hardcoded images, missing metadata)
- Use composites for common patterns (WebApp, Microservice, StatefulService)
When you scaffold a new project with chant init --lexicon helm, the skill is installed to skills/chant-helm/SKILL.md for automatic discovery by Claude Code.
