manifest-lint

name	Manifest Lint
description	Validate kustomize build, cross-reference resources, check container names, volume mounts, and ConfigMap generators. Use when: Any file in kustomization/ was edited and needs validation before deploying. Also use for periodic manifest hygiene checks or when kustomize build is failing. Don't use when: Validating only openclaw.json content (use config-audit). Don't use for Flux reconciliation debugging (use flux-debugging). Don't use for CI pipeline failures (use ci-diagnosis). Don't use for pod runtime issues (use pod-troubleshooting). Outputs: Pass/fail validation result with specific errors identified, including file and line references for each issue found.

Manifest Lint

Routing

Use This Skill When

• You edited deployment.yaml, kustomization.yaml, pvc.yaml, or any manifest
• kustomize build is failing and you need to find out why
• Verifying manifest correctness before pushing changes
• Cross-checking that resource names match between files
• Periodic manifest hygiene audit

Don't Use This Skill When

• Only openclaw.json config values changed (no manifest changes) → use config-audit
• Flux can't reconcile but manifests are valid → use flux-debugging
• CI build failed → use ci-diagnosis
• Pod is crashing with valid manifests → use pod-troubleshooting
• You're making changes, not validating → make changes first, then lint

Steps

cd /tmp/oc-audit
