Guide users through creating, managing, and testing server configuration automation using Ansible. When automating server configurations, deploying applications with Ansible playbooks, managing dynamic inventories for cloud environments, or testing roles with Molecule, this skill provides idempotency patterns, secrets management with ansible-vault and HashiCorp Vault, and GitOps workflows for configuration as code.
Works with any agent that supports SKILL.md skills.

Install
Paste this into your terminal. It downloads exactly the version we scanned, not whatever is newest.
if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'managing-configuration' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'managing-configuration' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named managing-configuration already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/ancoleman/ai-design-components' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet '76551b7b19ebc667764ec75da14990d0aef8b6e5' -- 'skills/managing-configuration' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'skills/managing-configuration' ~/.agents/skills/'managing-configuration' && rm -rf "$d"; fi
Codex reads ~/.agents/skills directly. For Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Antigravity or OpenCode, also link it. For Claude Code: ln -s ~/.agents/skills/'managing-configuration' ~/.claude/skills/'managing-configuration' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
