ECR Repositories
What This Skill Produces
Generate Terraform for ECR repositories under a stable cluster prefix, plus
repository outputs and pull permissions needed by EKS nodes or pod identity.
This skill does not copy images or charts. Use ecr-mirror for NGC to ECR
mirroring after repositories and permissions are ready.
Inputs
Required:
| Input | Notes |
|---|
AWS_ACCOUNT_ID | AWS account that owns the target registry. |
AWS_REGION | Target ECR region. |
CLUSTER_NAME | Default ECR repository prefix. |
Optional:
| Input | Default |
|---|
TARGET_REPOSITORY | ${CLUSTER_NAME} |
| repository names | Derived from the manifest or declared by the caller |
| scan on push | true |
| encryption | AES256 unless a KMS key is provided |
Repository Contract
Create repositories with this naming convention:
${TARGET_REPOSITORY}/${image-or-chart-name}
Do not mirror to the registry root. Stop if TARGET_REPOSITORY is empty.
Pull Permissions
For EKS pulls, confirm the node role or pod identity has ECR read access:
ecr:GetAuthorizationToken
ecr:BatchCheckLayerAvailability
ecr:GetDownloadUrlForLayer
ecr:BatchGetImage
Preflight
Check for collisions before creating repositories:
aws ecr describe-repositories --region "$AWS_REGION" \
--query "repositories[?starts_with(repositoryName, '${CLUSTER_NAME}/')].repositoryName"
If repositories already exist with the cluster prefix, stop and ask whether to
adopt, clean up, or choose a new prefix.
Outputs
Expose values later skills can consume:
output "ecr_registry" {
value = "${var.aws_account_id}.dkr.ecr.${var.aws_region}.amazonaws.com"
}
output "ecr_repository_prefix" {
value = var.target_repository
}
