flux-operator-cli

What problem does it solve?

Provides a single, consistent CLI workflow for building Flux manifests locally, comparing YAML, patching FluxInstance upgrades, creating authentication secrets, tracing GitOps delivery pipelines, and bootstrapping or operating Flux Operator installations so teams can manage GitOps at scale without ad-hoc scripts.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Offline manifest generation: Render FluxInstance and ResourceSet Kubernetes manifests locally for review or GitOps commits.
• YAML diffing and patching: Produce RFC 6902 patches for YAML diffs and generate kustomize patches to upgrade controllers safely.
• Cluster day‑2 operations: Reconcile, suspend, resume, trace, export, and visualize resources; create secrets for Git and registry access; install or uninstall the operator for dev/test environments.
• Use Case: DevOps or Platform teams can build manifests, verify upgrades with diffs and patches, create required secrets for GitOps, and trace delivery pipelines to debug where manifests originated.

Quick Start

Use the flux-operator-cli skill to build instance manifests from a local FluxInstance file and produce a diff against a target manifest or remote source.
