| description | Search kubesearch.dev to research how other homelabs configure Helm charts.
Use when: (1) Configuring a new Helm release, (2) Looking for configuration examples,
(3) Comparing approaches across repositories, (4) Needing real-world values.yaml patterns,
(5) Researching best practices for specific charts, (6) Finding example implementations.
Triggers: "how do others configure", "show me examples", "helm chart examples",
"configuration examples", "values.yaml examples", "kubesearch", "homelab examples",
"how do other homelabs", "real-world config", "chart configuration", "helm values examples",

KubeSearch - Homelab Helm Configuration Research
Search kubesearch.dev to find real-world Helm configurations from other homelab repositories.
Workflow
Step 1 — Find chart: WebFetch https://kubesearch.dev/?search=<chart-name> → list matching releases with registry paths.
Step 2 — Get repository links: Convert registry path to URL format (replace / with -), then WebFetch https://kubesearch.dev/hr/<url-path> → list repositories with direct GitHub links to HelmRelease files.
Examples of the URL conversion:
ghcr.io/grafana-helm-charts/grafana → ghcr.io-grafana-helm-charts-grafanacharts.longhorn.io/longhorn → charts.longhorn.io-longhorn
Step 3 — Fetch configs: Convert GitHub blob URLs to raw URLs, then fetch 3-5 in parallel:
- Blob:
github.com/<owner>/<repo>/blob/<branch>/<path>
- Raw:
raw.githubusercontent.com/<owner>/<repo>/<branch>/<path>
Selection criteria: recent activity (within 6 months), higher star count, similar chart version, similar infrastructure goals (bare-metal, GitOps, Talos).
Common Homelab Repositories
| Repository | Focus |
|---|
onedr0p/home-ops | Flux GitOps, extensive automation |
bjw-s/home-ops | App-template patterns |
buroa/k8s-gitops | Talos + Flux |
mirceanton/home-ops | Well-documented configs |
See references/output-format.md for the standard output structure when presenting findings.
