v1.0.3 — Kuvik Operator
Kuvik ADC v1.0.3 — Kuvik Operator
Pairs with the Kuvik LB cluster v1.0.x line. Publishes the workload-cluster operator that registers your Kubernetes cluster with a Kuvik LB control plane.

Install (online, OCI)
No cluster-level prerequisites — installs on any Kubernetes 1.27+ or k3s cluster. Requires the ghcr packages to be made public by an org admin (one-time per package).
export KUBECONFIG=/etc/rancher/k3s/k3s.yaml
helm upgrade --install kuvik-operator \
oci://ghcr.io/kuvik-io/kuvik-adc/charts/kuvik-operator \
--version 1.0.3 \
--namespace kuvik-operator-system --create-namespace \
--set controllerGRPCAddress=<LB-VIP>:19000 \
--set clusterID=<your-cluster-id> \
--set site=<site-label> \
--set grpc.operatorRegistrationToken=<token-from-UI> \
--set-string grpc.caCert="<base64-CA-from-UI>"Install (airgap, from this release)
Works without flipping package visibility — release assets are public via the repo.

--set-string grpc.caCert="<base64-CA-from-UI>"Values controllerGRPCAddress, clusterID, site, grpc.operatorRegistrationToken, grpc.caCert are emitted by the Kuvik LB Management UI's Add Workload Cluster wizard.
Optional: Gateway API support
To use Gateway API (GatewayClass/Gateway/HTTPRoute) in addition to plain LoadBalancer-type Services, install the upstream CRDs first, then helm upgrade:
kubectl apply -f https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/gateway-api/releases/download/v1.2.0/standard-install.yaml
helm upgrade kuvik-operator oci://ghcr.io/kuvik-io/kuvik-adc/charts/kuvik-operator \
--version 1.0.3 --namespace kuvik-operator-system --reuse-valuesThe chart auto-skips the GatewayClass resource when the CRDs are absent and the operator runs in Service-only mode, so leaving the default gatewayAPI.enabled=true on a cluster without Gateway API installs cleanly.
Compatibility
This operator works with Kuvik LB cluster v0.10.x and v0.11.x control planes. v0.11.x is a breaking minor on the LB cluster side (file-path gRPC TLS removed) — operator is unaffected.
Built from kuvik-lb-cluster commit 40bb398a.
