Kubernetes Environments Visualisation and How We Do It
summary
Describes a working GitLab integration that uses gitlab-agent-for-kubernetes (Agent K + CAST) to proxy and impersonate users, enforce per-project RBAC, and expose the Kubernetes API to the frontend. A browser-compatible cluster client library (TypeScript OpenAPI generator) talks to the agent and will add watch support. The environments page queries workloads, services, deployments and shows health; a demo scales to 9 pods then back to 1 and flips health to unhealthy when a bad manifest is applied, showing the system actually works.
