Coreweave Local Dev Loop

DevOps & Security

coreweave-local-dev-loop

Coreweave Local Dev Loop is an Agent Skill for devops & security published in the jeremylongshore/claude-code-plugins-plus-skills repository on GitHub: a SKILL.md instruction file an AI agent can load to do this task.

Set up local development workflow for CoreWeave GPU deployments. Use when building containers locally, testing YAML manifests, or iterating on model serving configurations before deploying. Trigger with phrases like "coreweave dev setup", "coreweave local testing", "develop for coreweave", "coreweave container build".

Prompt to paste

Inspect the Agent Skill at https://github.com/jeremylongshore/claude-code-plugins-plus-skills/blob/HEAD/plugins/saas-packs/coreweave-pack/skills/coreweave-local-dev-loop/SKILL.md and all supporting files. Report provenance, permissions, scripts, dependencies, and security risks. Propose an exact installation into .agents/skills/coreweave-local-dev-loop, but wait for my approval before writing files or running scripts.

Overview

Local development workflow for CoreWeave: build containers, test YAML manifests with dry-run, push to registry, and deploy to CoreWeave CKS.

Prerequisites

Completed coreweave-install-auth setup
Docker installed locally
Container registry access (Docker Hub, GHCR, or CoreWeave registry)

Instructions

Step 1: Project Structure

my-inference-service/
├── Dockerfile
├── src/
│   ├── server.py          # Inference server code
│   └── model_config.py    # Model configuration
├── k8s/
│   ├── deployment.yaml    # GPU deployment manifest
│   ├── service.yaml       # Service and ingress
│   └── hpa.yaml           # Horizontal pod autoscaler
├── scripts/
│   ├── build.sh           # Build and push container
│   └── deploy.sh          # Deploy to CoreWeave
├── .env.local
└── Makefile

Step 2: Build and Push Container

# Build locally
docker build -t my-inference:latest .

# Tag for registry
docker tag my-inference:latest ghcr.io/myorg/my-inference:v1.0.0

# Push
docker push ghcr.io/myorg/my-inference:v1.0.0

Step 3: Validate Manifests Before Deploy

# Dry-run against CoreWeave cluster
kubectl apply -f k8s/deployment.yaml --dry-run=server

# Diff against current state
kubectl diff -f k8s/deployment.yaml

# Check resource requests match available GPU types
kubectl get nodes -l gpu.nvidia.com/class=A100_PCIE_80GB --no-headers | wc -l

Step 4: Deploy and Watch

kubectl apply -f k8s/
kubectl rollout status deployment/my-inference
kubectl logs -f deployment/my-inference

Error Handling

Error	Cause	Solution
Image pull backoff	Wrong registry or no pull secret	Create imagePullSecret
CUDA mismatch	Driver vs container version	Match CUDA version to node drivers
Dry-run fails	Invalid manifest	Fix YAML syntax
