Step 2 — Controller Status & Installation

Goal: Ensure the AI Runway controller and CRDs are installed and healthy.

# Check CRD presence
kubectl get crd modeldeployments.airunway.ai

# Check controller pod health
kubectl get pods -n airunway-system -l control-plane=controller-manager

If already installed and healthy: Report version and pod status, skip to Step 3.

If not installed: Ask user to confirm, then from the repository root run:

make controller-install   # Install CRDs
make controller-deploy    # Deploy controller manager

Note: make targets must be run from the AI Runway repository root.

Verify rollout:

kubectl rollout status deployment/airunway-controller-manager -n airunway-system --timeout=120s

Error handling:

  • CrashLoopBackOff → kubectl logs -n airunway-system -l control-plane=controller-manager --previous
  • Rollout timeout → kubectl describe deployment airunway-controller-manager -n airunway-system
  • No rule to make target → Navigate to repo root and retry

What it does

Installs and configures AI Runway on an existing AKS cluster, walking through controller setup, GPU assessment, inference provider selection, and model deployment. Targets users deploying large language models or other GPU-accelerated workloads to Kubernetes via KAITO, Dynamo, or KubeRay.

Generated from the current SKILL.md.

Frequently asked

Do I need an existing AKS cluster to use this skill?
Yes. This skill assumes you already have an AKS cluster. If you don't, the skill will hand off to the azure-kubernetes skill to provision one first, then return here.
What inference providers does this skill support?
The skill covers KAITO, Dynamo, and KubeRay as inference provider options. Step 4 recommends and installs the appropriate provider for your setup.
Does this skill work with CPU-only clusters?
Yes, CPU-only inference is acceptable, though the skill includes GPU assessment and provider setup primarily designed for GPU workloads. A bare cluster without GPU resources is still supported.
What happens if I already have part of AI Runway set up?
You can use the `skip-to-step N` argument to resume from a specific phase. The skill will report the current state and skip already-completed steps.
What are the cost implications of using this skill?
GPU node pools incur significant charges — A100-80GB can cost $3–5+/hr. The skill will confirm you understand these costs before provisioning GPU resources.
