| description | Kubernetes-layer health triage for Anton. Use when Codex checks whether the cluster is OK, Flux is healthy, platform controllers are ready, CNI or DNS is failing, cert-manager or ESO is stuck, gateways are broken, cloudflared is disconnected, or apps are unhealthy. |
Anton Cluster Health
Goal: Triage Anton from Kubernetes upward and stop at the first failing layer.
Success means:
- Node/Talos symptoms route to
talos-inspect first.
- CNI/DNS, Flux, platform, and app checks run in order.
- The output is a ranked punch list with command evidence and safe next steps.
Stop when: the first red layer is explained or every layer is green enough for the user's question.
Layer Order
- Talos and nodes: use
talos-inspect for node, disk, etcd, or network symptoms.
- CNI and DNS: read
references/layer-3-cni-dns.md.
- Flux: read
references/layer-4-flux.md.
- Platform: read
references/layer-5-platform.md.
- Apps: read
references/layer-6-apps.md.
- Silent killers: read
references/silent-killers.md when symptoms look clean but behavior is wrong.
Read-Only Checks
kubectl get nodes -o wide
kubectl get pods -A
flux get sources git -A
flux get ks -A
flux get hr -A
kubectl -n cert-manager get pods
kubectl -n external-secrets get pods
kubectl -n network get pods,httproute,gateway
Output Shape
Return:
- Overall status: green, yellow, red, or blocked.
- First failing layer.
- Evidence: commands and key lines.
- Next action: matching skill, file, or operator-approved command.
Keep the triage read-only. Hand off fixes to the relevant manifest, Flux, Talos, or credential workflow.
