Catalog Promotion Next Candidates

A repository document, rendered for the site. View source markdown.

All top-20 bespoke recipes are now explicit catalog-supported entries for the declared local-test scope.

They are not production-supported. Production support remains unclaimed until the target scope, scan/gate expectations, lifecycle requirements, runtime evidence, and support policy are recorded in a final support decision.

The next promotion reviews should take proof-grade charts from the generated default set, add user-shaped variants, and prove breadth without making the happy path feel heavy.

The generated wave-2 plan is now the source of truth:

data/catalog-promotion-wave2/candidates.yaml
data/catalog-promotion-wave2/review.csv
data/catalog-promotion-wave2/summary.md

Recommended next candidates:

traefik/traefikHigh-rank ingress controllerCRD ownership, IngressClass ownership, Service exposure, webhook/readiness policy.
external-dns/external-dnsProvider/credential-driven controllerProvider variants, credential target facts, TXT registry ownership, cluster RBAC.
vmware-tanzu/veleroBackup/restore controllerCloud credentials, backup target facts, CRD lifecycle, restore/rollback policy.
istio-official/istiodService mesh control planeWebhook lifecycle, cluster RBAC, revision labels, certificate authority boundary.
kyverno/kyvernoPolicy engineAdmission webhook safety, CRD ownership, hook policy, controller HA and reports.

Promotion review should answer:

New to cub? Install the cub CLI first. Public catalog packages pull and render anonymously, and you sign in only once a command saves or changes ConfigHub data.

Is this the best, simplest, safest way for a Helm user to install and vary it?
Are the supported variants obvious?
Are deferred variants explicit?
Are scan/gate warnings acceptable for the declared support scope?
Can cub installer output be compared cleanly with regular Helm output?

Alternates if a selected chart is delayed:
