Alloy On Loopback, Reporting Off, Validated

Grafana Alloy from the upstream release (sha256-verified) as a hardened system service on loopback with --disable-reporting, a self-scrape pipeline that proves the collector runs, and its configuration checked by alloy validate before it lands. The live test reads Alloy's own metrics and asks the component API for the scrape component's health. Original role, live-tested on Rocky Linux 10.

Provider drift

This artifact declares no Terraform provider requirements, so there is nothing to drift. Provider freshness applies to Terraform and OpenTofu modules.

What depends on this

No reference architecture names this module, so changing it affects only configurations that reference it directly.
