What it does
Collects bounded packet captures from AKS nodes and Azure network configuration for wire-level evidence. WHEN: \"capture packets on an AKS node\", \"take a pcap\", \"run tcpdump on AKS\", \"prove where packets drop\". Use for explicit packet-capture intent after read-only diagnostics, not general AKS connectivity or ingress troubleshooting.
AKS Network Capture
Quick Reference
| Use | Requires | Safety |
|---|---|---|
| AKS pcap evidence | kubectl; az for Azure evidence | Bounded, pinned, least privilege |
When to Use This Skill
Use for explicit packet capture after read-only checks, not generic connectivity failures.
MCP Tools
Azure MCP's AKS area provides cluster and node-pool metadata, not Kubernetes command execution or packet capture.
Host Capability Gate
Before executing the workflow, confirm that the host permits the required
Bash or PowerShell execution, kubectl access to the bound cluster, az for
Azure evidence, access to the bundled scripts, and an approved artifact
destination. A governed Azure CLI tool alone does not establish that shell,
Kubernetes commands, or artifact operations are supported.
If a required capability is unavailable or prohibited, state that capture
execution is unavailable in this host. Analyze supplied, appropriately
redacted evidence or give the operator a target-bound collection/capture plan;
do not claim to have run it. Never route kubectl through Azure MCP, add an
unapproved execution path, or bypass host policy. Host support does not replace
the mutation and sensitive-data approvals below.
Run bundled scripts from the skill root only after this gate is satisfied.
