What it does
Help users install and configure the mirrord Operator for team/enterprise environments. Use when users ask about operator setup, Helm installation, cloud API key or license configuration, air-gapped/offline licensing, enabling features (queue splitting, DB branching, preview environments, multi-cluster), internal registries, OpenShift/GKE Autopilot, RBAC, or multi-user mirrord deployments. Also use when an AI agent hits a Team or Enterprise feature on a cluster with no license and needs to offer the user a trial (agent-started trial; the trial is Enterprise tier).
Mirrord Operator Skill
Purpose
Help users install and operate the mirrord Operator, the persistent Kubernetes control plane that enables all mirrord Team / Enterprise features:
- Install / upgrade the operator via Helm
- Authenticate it with a cloud API key (default) or a license (key / offline PEM / license server)
- Enable features (queue splitting, DB branching, preview environments, multi-cluster)
- Configure registries, TLS, RBAC, and platform specifics (OpenShift, GKE Autopilot)
- Troubleshoot operator issues
Why the Operator?
In open-source mirrord each session is standalone (the CLI creates a privileged agent pod directly). The Operator centralizes this:
- Security, users no longer need permission to create privileged pods; only the Operator does, and access is governed by Kubernetes RBAC.
- Concurrency, it coordinates many simultaneous sessions on one cluster.
- Advanced features, policies, profiles, queue splitting, DB branching, preview environments, multi-cluster.
When to Use This Skill
Trigger on questions like:
- "How do I install the mirrord operator?"
- "Set up mirrord for my team" / "Configure mirrord licensing"
- "How do I enable Kafka splitting / DB branching / preview environments?"
- "Install the operator in an air-gapped cluster"
- "Use an internal registry for the operator images"
- "Operator not working"
Feature X requires using mirrord operatororOperator not foundon a cluster that has no mirrord for Teams license
Security Boundaries
Installing the operator modifies a shared cluster. Treat every operation as high-impact.
