kubeconform, A Real Manifest Refused
kubeconform on EL 10 from the GitHub release, refused by Ansible's get_url unless its SHA-256 is the one in the CHECKSUMS file, and re-checked by the live test, which validates two Deployments against the upstream schemas: the right one passes, the one with a string replicas is refused at /spec/replicas. Pinned; a newer release is a variable change. Original role, live-tested on Rocky Linux 10.

Documentation
kubeconform
kubeconform kubeconform 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 kubeconform, and a
third-party repository is one more key to trust. This role takes the
release from github.com/yannh/kubeconform, 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. kubeconform_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 kubeconform -summary /tmp/kubeconform-p/bad.yaml and expects
"got string, want null or integer" - the binary ran all the way to the point where it
needed something this host does not have.
A real schema, a real refusal. The live test writes two Deployments,
one with replicas: 1 and one with replicas: "three", and has
kubeconform validate both against the upstream JSON schemas: the first
passes (Valid: 1, Invalid: 0), the second is refused at
/spec/replicas with "got string, want null or integer". Schemas are
fetched from the kubernetes-json-schema repository on first use;
-schema-location points it at a mirror or a local copy for an
air-gapped runner.

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-cilium-cli
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.
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-kyverno-cli
The kyverno CLI 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 by the live test, which applies a require-label policy offline: the unlabelled Pod fails, the labelled one passes. Pinned; a newer release is a variable change. Original role, live-tested on Rocky Linux 10.
