Is the GitLab Stack Config Generator skill free?

Yes. The skill itself is free from rknall/claude-skills. SkillProof publishes the install command and an independent test verdict at no cost.

What is the GitLab Stack Config Generator SkillProof Score?

7.2/10 — installs cleanly 4/5, triggers reliably 5/5, output vs. baseline 6/10, docs & honesty 3/5.

How do I install GitLab Stack Config Generator?

Copy the install command from this page, run it in your terminal, and restart Claude Code. Skills live in ~/.claude/skills/ (global) or .claude/skills/ inside a project.

Can I use GitLab Stack Config Generator with Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Codex or other AI tools?

The SKILL.md format is native to Claude (Claude Code, Desktop, claude.ai). The instructions inside adapt to other assistants: Cursor rules, GitHub Copilot instructions, Windsurf rules, Custom GPTs, AGENTS.md for OpenAI Codex, and GEMINI.md for Google Gemini CLI — our conversion guides cover each, and the free converter on the tools page does the wrapping for you.

GitLab Stack Config Generator

Generates env-driven nginx/Postgres/Redis configs, but its own validation phase needs sibling skills.

Test report

Verdict: Works with setup
Score: 7.2/10
Tested: Jul 14, 2026
Environment: Claude Code 2.x (agent harness)
Upstream re-checked: Aug 10, 2026 · eb9292e

The generated CLAUDE.md, .gitignore, nginx.conf and env-sync check all matched the SKILL.md templates exactly, but the workflow's own 'strict validation' phase repeatedly calls out to docker-validation and secrets-manager skills that live in sibling folders of the same repo -- copy only config-generator/ per the stated install path and those calls have nothing to invoke.

What GitLab Stack Config Generator does

Scaffolds ./config/<service>/ directories, .env-driven nginx/PostgreSQL/Redis config files, and project meta files (CLAUDE.md, .gitignore, .dockerignore) for self-hosted Docker Compose 'GitLab stack' projects, with secret-detection and .env/.env.example sync checks. Triggers on requests to generate service configs, config templates, or validate that configs follow the stack's .env/no-secrets pattern. Its full validation phase depends on the docker-validation and secrets-manager skills, which live in sibling folders of the same repo and are not included if this skill is copied in isolation.

How to install GitLab Stack Config Generator

git clone https://github.com/rknall/claude-skills
cd claude-skills
mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills

Skills live in ~/.claude/skills/ (global) or .claude/skills/ (per-project). Restart Claude Code after installing.

Commands — how to trigger GitLab Stack Config Generator

/gitlab-stack-config-generator Generates env-driven nginx/Postgres/Redis configs, but its own validation phase needs sibling skills.

It also activates on plain-language prompts like these:

Generate an nginx config for my GitLab stack project
Set up PostgreSQL and Redis service configs for our stack
Check that my configs don't have secrets and .env is in sync
