Summary
End-to-end AI Runway setup on AKS from bare cluster to running model deployment.
- Walks through six sequential steps: cluster verification, controller installation, GPU assessment, inference provider setup, first model deployment, and summary
- Includes cost awareness warnings for GPU node pools and error handling for common deployment failures
- Supports resuming from any step via
skip-to-step Nargument if setup is partially complete - Uses only
kubectlandmakeCLI tools; no MCP tools required

AI Runway AKS Setup
This skill walks users from a bare Kubernetes cluster to a running AI model deployment. Follow each step in sequence unless the user provides skip-to-step N to resume from a specific phase.
Cost awareness: GPU node pools incur significant compute charges (A100-80GB can cost $3–5+/hr). Confirm the user understands cost implications before provisioning GPU resources.
Prerequisites
This skill assumes an AKS cluster already exists. If the user does not have a cluster, hand off to the azure-kubernetes skill first to provision one (with a GPU node pool unless CPU-only inference is acceptable), then return here.
