## Description

Helps DevOps engineers configure mirrord Operator's Kafka queue splitting feature end-to-end. Generates the MirrordSplitConfig and MirrordPropertyList Kubernetes CRD YAMLs (the current resources; MirrordKafkaTopicsConsumer + MirrordKafkaClientConfig are deprecated but still supported), the matching mirrord.json split_queues section with message_filter and jq_filter, and Helm value guidance. Use this skill whenever the user mentions Kafka splitting with mirrord, MirrordSplitConfig, MirrordPropertyList, MirrordKafkaClientConfig, MirrordKafkaTopicsConsumer, Kafka queue/topic splitting, configuring mirrord with Kafka, Kafka Streams splitting, MSK IAM auth, or troubleshooting Kafka splitting sessions. Also trigger on split_queues with queue_type Kafka, or connecting mirrord to a Kafka cluster. This is a Team/Enterprise feature of mirrord.

# mirrord Kafka Splitting Configuration Skill

> **Which CRDs?** Kafka splitting is now configured with **`MirrordSplitConfig`** (which queues to split + how the app finds their names) and **`MirrordPropertyList`** (the Kafka client connection). These replace the deprecated `MirrordKafkaTopicsConsumer` + `MirrordKafkaClientConfig`, which still work for backward compatibility. **Generate the new resources for any new setup.** Only produce the deprecated ones if the user explicitly asks or is maintaining an existing deployment. Requires operator **3.170.0+** and CLI **3.221.0+**.
