Backend-router enablement depends on workload topology. The Rust router now builds canonical identities from revisioned EndpointSlice snapshots and serves them through ChangesRouter workload and discovery flow
Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~60 minutes Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to The PR updates workload defaults and routing behavior for Deployment and StatefulSet installations. It is mergeable with owner awareness that the chart test command may fail on environments whose /bin/sh is not Bash; the test-script portability issue should be followed up.

TL;DR
Make the public LLM request-router chart support both Deployment and StatefulSet workloads, defaulting new installs to Deployment while preserving an explicit StatefulSet migration pin. EndpointSlice discovery now supplies the canonical pod identity and the exact forwarding targets used by the backend router.
Additional Details
llmRequestRouter.workload.kindwithDeploymentas the chart default and workload-specific rollout fields.targetRef.name.The self-managed stack intentionally remains on its separately released OCI chart pin in this PR. Its existing chart-release pin-bump workflow must advance the stack only after this chart version is published; forwarding the option before then would be ineffective.
