Could this be as simple as writing out the default yaml that would be generated by the helm chart for users to consume? I've seen this approach taken with other projects and then they can either be consumed directly OR via another tool like kustomize that can then consume the raw YAML and make adjustments as necessary.

Would be happy to contribute to what I describe above if this is something folks would be interested in.

Assuming you're allowed to run helm at least clientside (no interaction with a cluster needed), you can use the helm template command to dump the rendered k8s manifests that helm would have applied to the cluster.
