helm

Expert guidance for Helm — the Kubernetes package manager. Use whenever the user creates, edits, reviews, or debugs a Helm chart or anything under a chart (Chart.yaml, values.yaml, values.schema.json, templates/*.yaml, _helpers.tpl, charts/, crds/); writes or fixes Go/Sprig template syntax ({{ }}, include, define, template, range, with, toYaml, nindent, indent, tpl, required, quote, default); runs the helm CLI (install, upgrade, rollback, uninstall, lint, template, package, dependency, repo, search, show, get, pull, status, history, test); manages releases or values across environments; discovers or vendors existing charts from repositories, Artifact Hub, or OCI registries; or debugs failures like "helm template fails", "wrong indentation", "nil pointer evaluating interface", "release stuck in pending-upgrade", "values not taking effect", or rendered YAML that won't apply. Trigger on Helm chart files, helm command output, Go template errors, or Kubernetes packaging/release questions where Helm is the tool — even when the user doesn't say "Helm" but is clearly working inside a chart.
