Nginx Configurator

Nginx Configurator generates production-ready Nginx configurations tailored to your application architecture. Whether you need a simple reverse proxy, a complex load balancer, or a security-hardened web server, this skill produces configurations following Mozilla's recommended security guidelines.

How It Works

1. Architecture assessment — Understands your upstream services, domains, and traffic patterns
2. Config generation — Produces server blocks, upstream definitions, and location rules
3. SSL configuration — Sets up TLS 1.2/1.3 with strong cipher suites and OCSP stapling
4. Performance tuning — Configures worker processes, connection limits, buffer sizes, and caching
5. Security hardening — Adds headers like X-Frame-Options, CSP, and rate limiting

Best For

• Setting up reverse proxy for Docker or Kubernetes services
• Migrating from Apache to Nginx
• Hardening existing Nginx configs against OWASP Top 10
• Configuring WebSocket proxying and HTTP/2

Output Format

Generates separate files for main config, site configs, and upstream definitions. Includes comments explaining each directive for team knowledge sharing.
