Claude auto-loads it when your prompt matches the work.Auto-invocation is when the right skill fires by itself at the right moment, driven by a FLOW.md router and a hook, instead of you invoking it by name.

Ambient PR Test Skill

Deploy PR-tagged Ambient images into an OpenShift namespace for integration testing.

**Invoke with a PR URL:**

with skills/control-plane/ambient-pr-test  https://github.com/ambient-code/platform/pull/1599

Optional modifiers:

  • **`--keep-alive`** — skip teardown
  • **`deploy-only`** / **`teardown-only`** — single phase
  • **`--namespace <ns>`** — target namespace (defaults to current project)

Environment Detection

if oc api-resources --api-group=tenant.paas.redhat.com 2>/dev/null  < /dev/null |  grep -q TenantNamespace; then
  echo "MPP"    # use provision.sh + install.sh
else
  echo "Standard"  # use install-standard.sh
fi

| | Standard OpenShift | MPP | |--|-------------------|-----| | Namespace | Pre-existing | Created via TenantNamespace CR | | Script | `install-standard.sh` | `provision.sh` + `install.sh` | | Auth | Development (no JWT) | Production (RH SSO JWT) | | Secrets | Auto-generated | Copied from runtime-int |

Standard OpenShift

For any cluster where you have `oc` access and an existing namespace.

Prerequisites

  • `oc` logged in with create permissions for deployments, services, routes, secrets, ClusterRoles
  • Existing namespace (e.g. `mturansk`)
  • PR images at `quay.io/ambient_code/vteam_*:pr-<NUMBER>`

Deploy

PR_NUMBER=1599
NAMESPACE=$(oc project -q)
bash components/pr-test/install-standard.sh "$NAMESPACE" "pr-${PR_NUMBER}"

The script: 1. Creates DB and app secrets (auto-generated) 2. Creates CP ServiceAccount + ClusterRole + ClusterRoleBinding 3. Deploys PostgreSQL, api-server (dev mode), control-plane (standard mode) 4. Creates Route (auto-assigned `.apps.*` host) 5. Waits for rollouts, smoke-checks health

Verify

API_HOST=$(oc get route ambient-api-server -n "$NAMESPACE" -o jsonpath='{.spec.host}')
curl -sk "https://${API_HOST}/api/ambient"
acpctl login --url "https://${API_HOST}"

Teardown

NAMESPACE=$(oc project -q)
oc delete deployment,svc,route,configmap,secret -l app=ambient-api-server -n "$NAMESPACE"
oc delete deployment,svc -l app=ambient-control-plane -n "$NAMESPACE"
oc delete secret ambient-control-plane-token ambient-cp-token-keypair -n "$NAMESPACE" --ignore-not-found
oc delete clusterrole,clusterrolebinding "ambient-control-plane-${NAMESPACE}" --ignore-not-found

---

MPP Workflow

For MPP clusters (`dev-spoke-aws-us-east-1`). See `components/pr-test/MPP-ENVIRONMENT.md`.

PR_NUMBER=1005; ID="pr-${PR_NUMBER}"
bash components/pr-test/build.sh "https://github.com/ambient-code/platform/pull/${PR_NUMBER}"
bash components/pr-test/provision.sh create "$ID"
bash components/pr-test/install.sh "ambient-code--${ID}" "pr-${PR_NUMBER}"
# teardown:
bash components/pr-test/provision.sh destroy "$ID"

---

Troubleshooting

Images not found

Check quay.io for the tag: `https://quay.io/repository/ambient_code/vteam_control_plane?tab=tags`

CP can't reach api-server

oc get deployment ambient-control-plane -n "$NAMESPACE" \
  -o jsonpath='{.spec.template.spec.containers[0].env}' | python3 -m json.tool | grep AMBIENT

JWT errors in standard mode

Verify `AMBIENT_ENV=development`:

oc get deployment ambient-api-server -n "$NAMESPACE" \
  -o jsonpath='{.spec.template.spec.containers[?(@.name=="api-server")].env[?(@.name=="AMBIENT_ENV")].value}'

Route not resolving

oc get route ambient-api-server -n "$NAMESPACE" -o jsonpath='{.spec.host}'

CP keypair secret

Auto-generated on first start as `ambient-cp-token-keypair`. Check CP logs:

oc logs deployment/ambient-control-plane -n "$NAMESPACE" | grep keypair

Build fails

docker login quay.io  # or: podman login quay.io
