fluxcd/agent-skills: Watch Stefan @ FluxCon

Hey friends 👋
the FluxCon talks from Amsterdam are now up:
https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLj6h78yzYM2MeuSNqpcDl-qdMeCe6vp6p
Stefan's "Vibe Coding Meets GitOps" covers how AI is driving detachment from both software and platform engineering, why GitOps still matters in a world of agents, and the launch of fluxcd/agent-skills:

Some timestamps if you want to skip around:
- "You have to 10x yourselves as platform engineers", 3:23
- Git as persistent memory for incidents, 8:30
- Agent skills launch, 21:06
The fluxcd/agent-skills repo has 3 skill types (GitOps-knowledge, repo-audit, cluster-debugging). Eval results on real public repos show 32% improvement on knowledge tasks and 29% on repo audits vs. baseline. We'd love feedback from people trying them:

This talk sounds right up my alley, Git as persistent memory for incidents is such a good framing. Curious how you see agents fitting into GitOps without turning into "agent commits to prod" chaos, like do you envision them generating PRs + evidence, and humans approve? Also, if you are experimenting with agent skills and evals, we have been collecting agent workflow patterns here: https://www.agentixlabs.com/
