Summary

  • Add convctl generate kyverno (Composition labeler + standing migrate policy) and a Flux/Argo GitOps demo (--demo-mode gitops, --from-stage, rehub + migrate-storage in the lifecycle).
  • Tighten convctl test to hub + compiled spokes (kind-filtered apps/ samples); leftover v1 app XRs fail when the v1 spoke is dropped.
  • Always emit conversion metadata so Flux SSA prune fragments are not rejected (missing metadata in converted object), and split Flux apps out of the waiting platform Kustomization.

Test plan

  • go test ./internal/cli/ ./pkg/engine/ ./internal/webhookserver/
  • CI unit/lint/docs jobs green
  • CodeRabbit comments triaged (real issues fixed)

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Added generate kyverno to create migration policies for Crossplane XRD versions.
    • Added GitOps demo workflows supporting Flux, Argo CD, staged migrations, and cleanup.
    • Added optional monitoring and Kyverno components to local development setup.
  • Bug Fixes
    • Improved conversion output so metadata is always present.
    • Refined testing for dropped versions, matching fixtures, and compiled conversion paths.
  • Documentation
    • Expanded CLI, migration, GitOps, observability, and demo guidance.
  • Tests
    • Added coverage for Kyverno generation, metadata handling, and version migration scenarios.

…adata

Add convctl generate kyverno, tighten convctl test to hub+spokes plus
kind-filtered apps samples, always emit conversion metadata so Flux SSA
prune succeeds, and ship the Flux/Argo GitOps demo with a standing
migrate policy and --from-stage resume.

Review Change Stack

Warning

Review limit reached

@vrabbi, you've reached your PR review limit, so we couldn't start this review.

Next review available in: 38 minutes

Limit details: You’ve used all 3 included reviews currently available under your plan.

Enable usage-based reviews in Billing to review now. Otherwise, wait until the next included review is available.
You're only billed for reviews past your plan's rate limits ($0.25/file).

How can I continue?

After more reviews become available, a review can be triggered using the @coderabbitai review command as a PR comment. Alternatively, push new commits to this PR.

To avoid repeated limits, reduce automatic review volume by pausing incremental auto-reviews earlier, using label-based review opt-in, excluding WIP or generated PR titles, or requesting reviews manually when the PR is ready. If your team needs uninterrupted high-volume reviews, an organization admin can enable usage-based reviews.

How do review limits work?

CodeRabbit enforces per-developer PR review limits for each organization. Most developers receive the normal plan review availability.

For paid Pro and Pro+ PR reviews, CodeRabbit uses adaptive limits for sustained high-volume activity. When a developer's recent PR review activity reaches the 95th percentile or higher among CodeRabbit users, additional reviews become available more gradually as earlier reviews age out of the rolling window.

Please refer docs for additional details.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The PR adds Kyverno policy generation, GitOps-based Crossplane version migration demos, optional monitoring and Kyverno setup, configured conversion testing, and guaranteed metadata in conversion responses.

Changes

Crossplane migration and GitOps workflow

Layer / File(s) Summary
Optional development components
.gitignore, CONTRIBUTING.md, Makefile, README.md, docs/observability.md
make dev-up conditionally installs monitoring and Kyverno, waits for Kyverno readiness, configures monitoring resources, and reports component status.
Kyverno policy generation
internal/cli/generate.go, internal/cli/generate_kyverno.go, internal/cli/generate_kyverno_test.go, docs/cli.md, docs/configuration/xrdconversionconfig.md
The CLI validates XRD versions and generates Composition-labeling and XR-migration policies with configurable versions, labels, names, CEL expressions, and JSON patches.
Conversion and sample validation
internal/cli/{root,live,loader,test}.go, internal/cli/test_test.go, internal/webhookserver/*, pkg/engine/*
Testing uses configured compiled spokes and filters unrelated samples. Dropped-spoke usage produces errors. Conversion output always includes metadata.
GitOps policy and repository assets
examples/crossplane-xr-multiversion/gitops/*
The example adds Kyverno policies, RBAC, application manifests, repository structure, platform snapshots, and migration guidance.
GitOps runtime and CI delivery
examples/crossplane-xr-multiversion/gitops/lib.sh, examples/crossplane-xr-multiversion/gitops/runner/*, examples/crossplane-xr-multiversion/gitops/workflow/*
The runtime manages repositories, worktrees, Flux or Argo reconciliation, staged pull requests, CI validation, runner deployment, state persistence, and cleanup.
Multiversion demo lifecycle
examples/crossplane-xr-multiversion/demo.sh, examples/crossplane-xr-multiversion/README.md, docs/examples/*, examples/crossplane-xr-multiversion/06-deprecate-v1/widget.yaml
The demo supports patch and GitOps modes, staged resumption, hub promotion, XR retargeting, storage migration, v1 deprecation, and optional repository cleanup.

Estimated code review effort: 5 (Critical) | ~120 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to be008

The PR adds GitOps lifecycle automation and generated migration policies, but unresolved failures can skip required migration writes, change how later demo stages fail, or cause admission errors when objects remove Crossplane data. It is not merge-ready until these bounded correctness issues are fixed or explicitly accepted.

Comment @coderabbitai help to get the list of available commands.

Kyverno 1.18.1 never runs MutatingPolicy mutateExisting, so the GitOps
demo now writes each XR after the standing migrate policy lands. Also
scope the demo-state umask and delete the Flux apps Kustomization on
cleanup.

Split dev-up into an executable script.

dev-up has 104 recipe lines. This exceeds the configured checkmake limit. Move the provisioning workflow into hack/dev-up.sh. Keep dev-up as a thin target that passes the DEV_* variables. This will make shell error handling and maintenance simpler.

Scope the umask 077 change so it does not leak to the rest of the script.

gitops_state_write sets umask 077 in the calling shell. gitops_create_or_use_repo calls this function before gitops_clone_worktree, so every file created afterwards in the same shell also uses the restrictive mask. Restrict the mask to the redirection.

Remove the sync-wave annotation. These are independent Argo CD Application resources, so the annotation does not order them. The retry policy retries failed conversion syncs but does not create an ordering dependency. If ordering is required, implement it explicitly and make gitops_wait_argo wait for ${GITOPS_APP_NAME}-conversion.

Inline comments:
In `@examples/crossplane-xr-multiversion/demo.sh`:
- Around line 58-120: Require and validate a non-option value before shifting
two arguments in the --demo-mode, --gitops-engine, --github-repo, --git-prefix,
--repo-visibility, and --from-stage branches. Reuse a shared need_value helper
near die, or equivalent existing validation, so missing values call die instead
of executing shift 2 and leaving the argument loop unchanged; preserve the
existing --create-repo handling.
- Around line 187-192: In the CLEANUP_ONLY branch, run gitops_cleanup_cluster
before cleanup_demo when GitOps is live, so Flux or Argo stops reconciling
before demo resources are deleted. Preserve gitops_cleanup_repo and the existing
conditional behavior, while ensuring cleanup_demo still runs for non-live
cleanup-only cases.

In `@examples/crossplane-xr-multiversion/gitops/lib.sh`:
- Around line 1022-1026: Update the Flux cleanup in the conditional block to
delete the `${GITOPS_APP_NAME}-apps` Kustomization alongside the existing
`${GITOPS_APP_NAME}` and `${GITOPS_APP_NAME}-conversion` resources before
deleting the flux-system namespace.
- Around line 533-547: Update gitops_install_argo to create the Argo repository
Secret with kubectl create secret generic and --from-literal arguments for the
repository fields, including the token, instead of interpolating them into YAML.
Quote the repo-${GITOPS_APP_NAME} argument in the preceding kubectl delete
command.
- Around line 386-398: Validate that the token returned by gh api in the runner
registration flow is non-empty before creating the runner-auth Secret. Fail
immediately with a clear error when the request fails or returns an empty token,
and prevent the subsequent Kubernetes resource creation from continuing; keep
the existing successful token path unchanged.
- Around line 186-191: Update gitops_set_push_url to stop embedding gh auth
token in the origin URL or persisting it in .git/config; configure and use
GitHub’s gh git credential helper for authenticated pushes while preserving the
repository’s origin remote URL.
- Around line 351-360: Update gitops_build_convctl_image to validate that
${REPO_ROOT}/bin/convctl exists before attempting the cp operation; when it is
missing, emit a clear error and return a failure status immediately so docker
build and subsequent steps do not run.
- Around line 918-949: In the fix-up and new-PR paths around
gitops_wait_pr_checks, remove the set +e/set -e toggles and capture or branch on
the command’s exit status directly. Preserve the existing rc-based failure
handling while ensuring gitops_ship does not leave errexit enabled for
subsequent stages.

In `@examples/crossplane-xr-multiversion/gitops/workflow/convctl.yaml`:
- Around line 65-117: Restrict the “Comment convctl output on the PR” step by
extending its if condition to require a same-repository pull request, such as
matching the head repository to the base repository, while preserving the
existing always() behavior. Keep convctl validation and job-log output unchanged
for fork-triggered pull requests.

In `@internal/cli/generate_kyverno.go`:
- Around line 295-317: Update migrateMatchCEL and/or migrateNeedsCEL so the
mutation predicate explicitly requires has(object.spec) and
has(object.spec.crossplane) before selecting the update path. Preserve the
existing oldObject/live and incoming/create logic while preventing selection
when the incoming object lacks spec.crossplane, allowing the fallback behavior
to handle that case safely.

In `@internal/cli/loader.go`:
- Around line 175-188: Update LoadSamples and the XRD/CRD test paths so
documents are decoded without requiring apiVersion, unrelated group/kind objects
are ignored, and matching objects missing apiVersion are rejected with the error
propagated through both paths; adjust filterSamplesByGVK or its callers to
perform target filtering before validation.

In `@internal/cli/test.go`:
- Around line 320-334: Update runTestCommon and testOneSample so sample-version
membership is checked against the unrestricted configured set, while targets
remains the --version-pair testing restriction. When a sample’s version is
configured but excluded by the selected target pair, skip it rather than
recording an error; retain errors only for versions absent from the configured
set.

Reject missing two-token flag values so demo.sh cannot hang, keep the
GitHub token out of the worktree remote URL, stop Flux/Argo before
wiping objects, and keep --version-pair from failing still-configured
samples. Unrelated YAML under --samples is ignored.
Capture gitops_wait_pr_checks without set +e/-e, and abort the demo if
listing or annotating XRs fails so a migrate policy cannot be skipped.
