Stages

• Actions

  Typed pre, post, and on-failure steps — jobs, HTTP gates, waits, patches, deletes, transient applies.

• Conflict policies

  Resolve immutable-field and ownership conflicts per resource.

• DependencyNotReady

  A StageSet named in spec.dependsOn is not yet Ready.

• From Jsonnet to a gated rollout

  Write Jsonnet manifests, render them with JaaS, and roll them out with StageSet — end to end.

• Producer-aware sources

  Reference a producer like JaaS and let the controller find its ExternalArtifact.

• Progressive delivery

  Gate a Flagger or Argo Rollouts promotion on a StageSet stage, and gate a StageSet stage on a Rollout.

• Ready checks

  Gate a stage on health with kstatus and CEL expressions.

• Rollback

  Restore the last good artifact revision when a run fails.

• StageFailed

  A stage failed to fetch, build, apply, verify, or run an action; the run halts there.

• StageInventory

  The controller-managed inventory of objects each stage applied.

• Stages and sources

  The core — ordered stages applying Flux sources, with path, prune, patches, and substitution.

• StageSet

  Every field of the StageSet resource — the one you author.

• StageSet vs Argo Rollouts

  Different layers — staged multi-artifact delivery versus single-workload traffic shifting.

• StageSet vs Flux kustomize-controller

  Intra-release stages and gates versus per-Kustomization ordering.

• StageSet vs Helm

  How StageSet relates to Helm's templating and hook ordering.

• StageSet vs jsonnet-controller

  A jsonnet-native Flux applier versus a renderer-agnostic staged-delivery layer.

• StageSet vs Kustomize

  Why StageSet delivers what Kustomize only builds.

• StageSet vs Tanka and kubecfg

  Reconciled, gated delivery versus CLI-driven Jsonnet apply.

• stagesetctl build

  Render a StageSet's manifests to stdout, exactly as the controller would.

• stagesetctl diff

  Preview what a StageSet would change in the cluster — usable as a CI gate.

• stagesetctl get

  Print human-readable StageSet status, or list StageSets.

• stagesetctl reconcile

  Force an out-of-band reconcile, optionally waiting for it to be handled.

• Stalled

  The run cannot make progress and will not retry until the spec changes.

• Succeeded

  All stages applied and verified the healthy steady state.

• Update windows

  Allow or deny rollouts on a schedule, without pausing reconciliation.
