Cilium CLI, Checked Against The Published Checksums

cilium on EL 10 from the GitHub release, refused by Ansible's get_url unless its SHA-256 is the one in the per-asset .sha256sum Cilium publishes, and re-checked with sha256sum -c by the live test, which then runs cilium config view with no cluster and expects the refused connection. Installing Cilium into a cluster stays yours. Original role, live-tested on Rocky Linux 10.

Documentation

cilium-cli

Cilium cilium on EL 10 from the vendor's release, checked against the published SHA-256, pinned to a version, installed as root's binary in /usr/local/bin. Original role for EL 10, live-tested with podman on Rocky Linux 10.

No package worth the name. EL 10 carries no cilium, and a third-party repository is one more key to trust. This role takes the release from github.com/cilium/cilium-cli, has Ansible's get_url refuse the asset unless its SHA-256 is the published one, and the live test checks the asset on disk against the same published value again.

Pinned. cilium_cli_version is what gets installed, kept in a directory of its own so the checksum file and the asset it names stay together. A newer release is a variable change and a run; the same version is changed=0.

Proven to run. The live test runs cilium config view and expects "connect: connection refused" - the binary ran all the way to the point where it needed something this host does not have.

One checksum file per asset. Cilium publishes cilium-linux-<arch>.tar.gz.sha256sum beside each tarball rather than one list; the role names the file for the target's architecture. cilium version --client also prints the Cilium image version this CLI would install by default (v1.20.1 here); installing Cilium into a cluster (cilium install) is a per-cluster act and stays yours. cilium config view with no cluster is refused on localhost:8080, the live test's proof that the client ran.

Live-tested

ansible-argocd-cli

The argocd client on EL 10 from the GitHub release, refused by Ansible's get_url unless its SHA-256 is the one in the vendor's cli_checksums.txt, and re-checked with sha256sum -c by the live test, which then runs argocd app list with no server and expects 'server address unspecified'. The server is a cluster install, not this role. Original role, live-tested on Rocky Linux 10.

ansible-argo

argo on EL 10 from the GitHub release; the asset is a bare gzip; get_url refuses it unless its SHA-256 is in the vendor's checksums file, and the live test re-checks it, then has lint --offline pass a valid Workflow and fail one whose entrypoint is missing (exit 1); list stops at the missing cluster. Pinned. Original role, live-tested on Rocky Linux 10.

ansible-flux-cli

flux on EL 10 from the GitHub release, refused by Ansible's get_url unless its SHA-256 is the one in the vendor's checksums file, and re-checked with sha256sum -c by the live test, which then runs flux check --pre with no cluster and expects the refused connection. Flux also signs the checksums with cosign; this role checks the hash. Original role, live-tested on Rocky Linux 10.

ansible-helm

helm on EL 10 from get.helm.sh, refused by Ansible's get_url unless its SHA-256 is the one in the .sha256sum file published beside the tarball, and re-checked with sha256sum -c by the live test, which then runs helm list with no cluster and expects 'kubernetes cluster unreachable'. Pinned; a newer release is a variable change. Original role, live-tested on Rocky Linux 10.

ansible-helmfile

helmfile on EL 10 from the GitHub release, refused by Ansible's get_url unless its SHA-256 is the one in the project's checksums file, and re-checked with sha256sum -c by the live test, which then runs helmfile list on a one-release file with no helm on the host and expects it to read the file and stop at the missing helm; pair it with the helm role. Original role, live-tested on Rocky Linux 10.

ansible-kube-linter

kube-linter on EL 10 from the GitHub release, pinned by a SHA-256 the role carries (the vendor publishes no checksum file), re-checked by the live test, which then lints a Deployment with one container and nothing else, expecting run-as-non-root, no-read-only-root-fs and the two unset-resource checks with exit 1. Pinned. Original role, live-tested on Rocky Linux 10.
