ansible-best-practices

Description

Ansible playbook and role patterns using ansible.builtin modules, community.general, community.proxmox, ansible.posix collections, molecule testing, ansible-lint validation, and Infisical secrets management. Covers idempotency patterns (changed_when, failed_when, register), YAML playbook structure, Jinja2 templating, handler patterns, and variable precedence rules. This skill should be used when writing Ansible playbooks, developing Ansible roles, testing with molecule/ansible-lint, managing secrets with Infisical, implementing idempotent task patterns with changed_when/failed_when directives, or configuring Proxmox/network automation.
