Configure Kafka Queue Splitting with mirrord
Kafka splitting requires matching Kubernetes resources, client authentication, and developer message filters. This skill guides configuration generation, compatibility checks, and troubleshooting for mirrord.

Review the Skillstore skill "mirrord-kafka" from https://skillstore.io/skills/metalbear-co-mirrord-kafka.md and its manifest at https://skillstore.io/api/skills/metalbear-co-mirrord-kafka/manifest. Verify the artifact. Stop and obtain explicit user consent before installing or changing files.Your Agent should still show its plan and request any confirmation required by the security policy.

Using "mirrord-kafka". Our Kafka Streams workload needs splitting and a payload filter.
Expected outcome:
Using "mirrord-kafka". A non-Streams KafkaJS consumer fails with INCONSISTENT_GROUP_PROTOCOL.
Expected outcome:
Using "mirrord-kafka". Our managed Kafka platform rejects temporary topics with PolicyViolation.
Expected outcome:
Most alerts are false positives involving Markdown backticks, TLS property names, or read-only discovery. Four alerts identify credential exposure through command arguments or unencrypted key exports; unfiltered workload inspection adds a separate disclosure risk. No evidence found of malicious exfiltration or prompt injection.
These are real local capabilities that may be expected for this skill, so they require review but are not counted as confirmed malicious behavior.

Generate namespace-specific connection and split resources with Secret references and the required Helm settings.
Draft header or payload filters that route relevant Kafka messages to a local application.
Compare redacted errors and installed versions against documented protocol, replication, and rollout constraints.
Explain the prerequisites for mirrord Kafka splitting. Ask for versions and nonsecret workload details. Do not inspect my cluster or request credentials.
Draft Kafka splitting resources for [deployment] in [namespace], using [broker], [topic environment variable], and [group environment variable]. Reference [Secret name] without reading its values. Include Helm guidance and matching mirrord configuration; do not apply changes.
Design filters for [queue ID] using this redacted payload example: [sample]. Check [operator version], [CLI version], and [client backend]. Explain JSON or raw protobuf options, filter errors, and mirror versus steal behavior.
Review these redacted legacy resources and logs: [inputs]. Plan migration to current resources for [versions]. Check namespace lookup, authentication references, replication policies, and rollout timeouts. Provide validation and recovery steps without reading secrets or changing the cluster.

Test Mirrord Sessions Under Chaos
Teams need realistic failure tests without changing shared workloads or application code. This skill creates session-scoped mirrord rules for latency and connection failures in local and CI tests.
Debug Multiple Microservices with mirrord up
Debugging related microservices requires coordinating local processes, cluster targets, and traffic filters. This skill guides shared YAML configuration and concurrent mirrord session management.
Build Safer mirrord Configurations
Kubernetes configuration files can be difficult to write and easy to misconfigure. This skill creates, validates, and explains focused mirrord configurations.
Start Your First mirrord Kubernetes Session
Starting local development against Kubernetes requires working cluster access, suitable tooling, and a target pod. This skill guides installation, first-session setup, and connection verification.
Configure Temporal Queue Splitting with mirrord
Temporal workers need precise task routing during local debugging, but manual Kubernetes configuration is easy to misconfigure. This skill generates resource guidance, filters, validation checks, and troubleshooting steps for mirrord Temporal splitting.
Configure Isolated Database Branches with mirrord
Shared databases make migration testing and development experiments difficult to isolate. This skill helps configure mirrord branches with separate connections, controlled data copying, and validation guidance.
