```bash
# Create secret from command line
kubectl create secret generic myapp-secrets \
--from-literal=database-url='postgres://...' \
--from-file=tls.crt=cert.pem
```
## kubectl Commands
### Resource Management
```bash
# Apply configuration

## When to Use This Skill
Use this skill when:
- Deploying applications to Kubernetes
- Managing pods, deployments, and services
- Configuring resource limits and scaling
- Troubleshooting Kubernetes workloads
- Setting up networking and ingress
## Limitations
- Guidance executes against real environments: confirm target, blast radius, and rollback plan before applying anything.
- Never deploy to production without explicit approval. Docs-only import: upstream scripts and templates not bundled.
### Example
```bash
git status && git diff --stat
kubectl diff -f manifest.yaml
```
