So... I already tell Claude Code to do this. Just run kubectl for me please and figure out why my helm chart is broken. Scary? A little but it's doing great. Not entirely sure why a specialized tool is needed when the general purpose CLI is working.

My codebase is full of one-offs that slowly but surely converge towards cohesive/well-defined/reusable capabilities based on ‘real’ needs.
I’m now starting to pitch consulting to a niche to see what sticks. If the dynamic from the office holds (as I help them, capabilities compound) then I’ll eventually find something to call ‘a product’.

It’s really liberating. Instead of saying “gosh I wish there was an app that…” I just make the app and use it and move on.

#25Hey HN, My name is Collin and I'm working on fluid.sh ( https://fluid.sh ) the Claude Code for Infrastructure. What does that mean? Fluid is a terminal agent that do work on production infrastructure like VMs/K8s cluster/etc. by making sandbox clones of the infrastructure for AI agents to work on, allowing the agents to run commands, test connections, edit files, and then generate Infra-as-code like an Ansible Playbo…
Claude Code for infrastructure. Debug, act, and audit everything Fluid does on your infrastructure.
Create sandboxes from VMs, investigate, plan, execute, generate Ansible playbooks, and audit everything.Re: Claude Code for Infrastructure
#26FUCK NO. Who in their right mind would let an LLM connect to prod?

That is the problem with software developers with expertise in software, but no deep domain knowledge outside the CS world.

I do the same. I was thinking about creating read-only kubeconfigs for him to make sure it can't do bad stuff but with a good SKILL.md, it works perfectly.

There are an infinite amount of problems to solve.
Deciding whether they’re worth solving is the hard part.

#30Hey Collin! Interesting idea, few things: - The website tells less than your comment here. I want to try but have no idea how destructive it can be. - You need to add / mention how to do things in the RO mode only. - Always explain destructive actions. Few weeks ago I had to debug K8S on the GCP GDC metal, Claude Code helped me tons, but... I had to recreate whole cluster next day because agent ran too fast deleted t…
