Supersedes #335, whose golang 1.27.1 base-image bump is included here.

Go 1.27.1

Both Dockerfiles (by digest), the mutation-lab fixture image, and the go
directive. /test/mutationlab was missing from Dependabot's docker
directories: list — which is exactly why it alone sat on 1.27.0 while the other
two were bumped. It is listed now, so it stops drifting.

Kubernetes aligned on 1.37

Kubernetes was already on 1.37 where it counts: k8s.io/api and client-go came
across with the last go-dependencies bump. The rest had not followed —
controller-runtime was still v0.24.1, which targets 1.36, and
apiextensions-apiserver still v0.36.4. Both move to the matching 1.37 pair
(controller-runtime v0.25.0, verified against that release's own go.mod).

ENVTEST_K8S_VERSION needed no edit: it derives itself from k8s.io/api. Unit
tests were therefore already running on envtest 1.37 while the README claimed
1.36 — that gap is what this closes.

The e2e cluster stays on 1.36, because k3s has no stable 1.37 release yet,
only release candidates. It moves to the newest 1.36 patch instead
(v1.36.1v1.36.4-k3s1). The README now states both versions rather than
claiming one:

Tested against Kubernetes 1.37 at the API level (envtest) and 1.36
end-to-end (k3s, which has no stable 1.37 release yet)

Docs that record a measurement against 1.36.1 — docs/facts/*, the
mutation-lab corpus, the audit-behaviour notes — keep their numbers. There the
number is the observation, so rewriting it without re-running the measurement
would make it false.

go.mod hygiene, now gated

k8s.io/apiextensions-apiserver was marked // indirect while
internal/controller imports it directly. Nothing gated tidiness, so it drifted
unnoticed. lint-gomod now checks it via go mod tidy -diff (reports drift,
exits non-zero, mutates nothing) and is wired into task lint. Verified in both
directions: re-introducing that exact drift fails the gate.

Flaky test fixed

TestRenamedRequiredField_StoredObjectCanAdoptIt failed CI on #335. Its wait for
the narrowed schema keyed on a ref-less create being rejected — but the
schema surgery renames the required field rather than dropping it, so a
ref-less object is refused under both schemas. The wait returned on its first
probe, before the apiserver's CR handler had picked up the new schema, and the
migration assertion then ran against the old one.

It now waits for a create carrying gitProviderRef to succeed, which only the
narrowed schema allows, and checks the "still required" claim after that wait,
where it discriminates.

The mechanism is the evidence: measured against a live apiserver, the old signal
is rejected under the widened schema as well as the narrowed one, so it could not
discriminate at all. A contended stress run reproduced CI's exact error once in
48 runs; a second, idler 96-run round did not reproduce it. The fix therefore
rests on the mechanism, not on the sampling.

Devcontainer refresh

kubectl v1.37.0, golangci-lint v2.13.2, flux 2.9.5, flux-operator 0.59.0, valkey
9.1.2, oras 1.3.4, trivy 0.74.0, vale 3.20.0, controller-gen v0.22.0,
setup-envtest v0.25.0, scc v4.0.0. Everything else was already current.

  • controller-gen v0.22.0 changes only the version stamp it writes into the
    CRDs — schemas are byte-identical. The bases are regenerated so the committed
    tree matches what the rebuilt container produces.
  • vale 3.20.0 was run against the gated scope: byte-identical output to 3.18.0.
  • staticcheck is deliberately unchanged — its "2026.2.1" release resolves to
    v0.8.1, which is already pinned.

Validation

task lint and task test pass on this branch. task test-e2e passed
(84/84) on the pre-rebase tree carrying the same upgrade, against a
v1.36.4-k3s1 cluster; CI covers the final tree.

Note: trivy 0.74.0 is the one bump not verifiable locally — a newer scanner can
surface new CVEs, so the image-scan job is the real check.

…esh devcontainer tooling

Includes Dependabot's golang 1.27.1 base-image bump (PR #335), which this
branch supersedes.

Go 1.27.1 everywhere: both Dockerfiles by digest, the mutation-lab fixture
image, and the go directive. /test/mutationlab was missing from Dependabot's
docker `directories:` list, which is why it alone sat on 1.27.0 — it is
listed now.

Kubernetes was already on 1.37 where it counts (k8s.io/api and client-go
came with the last go-dependencies bump), but the rest had not followed:
controller-runtime was still v0.24.1, which targets 1.36, and
apiextensions-apiserver still v0.36.4. Both move to the 1.37 pair
(controller-runtime v0.25.0). ENVTEST_K8S_VERSION needed no edit — it
derives itself from k8s.io/api, so unit tests were already on 1.37 while the
README still claimed 1.36.

The e2e cluster stays on 1.36 because k3s has no stable 1.37 release yet,
only release candidates; it moves to the newest 1.36 patch instead
(v1.36.1 -> v1.36.4-k3s1). The README now states both versions rather than
claiming one. Docs that RECORD a measurement against 1.36.1 — docs/facts/*,
the mutation-lab corpus, the audit-behaviour notes — keep their numbers,
because there the number is the observation.

go.mod was untidy: k8s.io/apiextensions-apiserver was marked `// indirect`
while internal/controller imports it directly. Nothing gated tidiness, so
`lint-gomod` now does, via `go mod tidy -diff`.

Fixes a flaky envtest, TestRenamedRequiredField_StoredObjectCanAdoptIt. Its
wait for the narrowed schema keyed on a ref-less create being REJECTED, but
the surgery renames the required field rather than dropping it, so that is
true under both schemas. The wait returned on its first probe, before the
apiserver served the new schema, and the assertion then ran against the old
one. It now waits for a create carrying gitProviderRef to SUCCEED, which
only the narrowed schema allows.

The mechanism is the evidence: measured against a live apiserver, the old
signal is rejected under the widened schema as well as the narrowed one, so
it could not discriminate at all. A contended stress run reproduced CI's
exact error once in 48; a second, idler 96-run round did not reproduce it.
Hence the fix rests on the mechanism rather than on the sampling.

controller-gen v0.22.0 changes only the version stamp it writes into the
CRDs; the schemas are byte-identical. The bases are regenerated so the
committed tree matches what the rebuilt container produces.

Devcontainer tools refreshed: kubectl v1.37.0, golangci-lint v2.13.2, flux
2.9.5, flux-operator 0.59.0, valkey 9.1.2, oras 1.3.4, trivy 0.74.0, vale
3.20.0, controller-gen v0.22.0, setup-envtest v0.25.0, scc v4.0.0. Vale
3.20.0 was checked to produce byte-identical output on the gated scope.
staticcheck is left alone: its "2026.2.1" release resolves to v0.8.1, which
is already pinned.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The change updates Go and Kubernetes tooling, module dependencies, generated CRD metadata, module linting, Docker update coverage, schema validation tests, and Kubernetes test environment versions.

Changes

Toolchain and validation refresh

Layer / File(s) Summary
Toolchain and module alignment
.devcontainer/Dockerfile, Dockerfile, go.mod, test/mutationlab/Dockerfile, .github/dependabot.yml
Go images and module versions are updated. Development tools are upgraded. Dependabot now tracks the mutationlab Dockerfile.
CRD generation metadata
config/crd/bases/*
Generated CRD annotations now record controller-gen version v0.22.0. Schema and validation content remain unchanged.
Module tidiness lint
Taskfile-build.yml
The aggregate lint task now runs go mod tidy -diff through the new lint-gomod task.
Schema and environment validation
internal/controller/renamed_required_field_test.go, README.md, test/e2e/cluster/start-cluster.sh
The schema test waits for a successful create with gitProviderRef before checking ref-less rejection. Kubernetes API and end-to-end test versions are updated and documented.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~25 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 92688

The lint command now includes a Go module tidiness check, but its task overview does not document that component. This is a bounded documentation mismatch with no identified runtime or data-impact risk.

Codecov Report

✅ All modified and coverable lines are covered by tests.

📢 Thoughts on this report? Let us know!

The overview described four linters. `task lint` has six deps: `lint-docs`
was already missing before this branch, and `lint-gomod` is new. Fixes the
summary table, the DAG, and the prose, which each carried the stale list.

Turns the one em dash in the rewritten sentence into a colon, per the style
guide.
