This is a solid reference for running Linkerd in production. You get installation commands, namespace injection patterns, ServiceProfile configs with retry budgets, TrafficSplit templates for canary deployments, and the newer policy-based authorization with Server and ServerAuthorization resources. The skill covers multi-cluster setup and includes practical monitoring commands like `linkerd viz top` and `linkerd viz routes` for per-route metrics. It's genuinely useful if you're moving past the Linkerd quickstart and need actual patterns for retries, timeouts, traffic splitting, and mTLS policies. The templates are copy-paste ready, which is what you want when you're setting up service mesh infrastructure. Best for teams already committed to Linkerd rather than evaluating service mesh options.
