The five-minute promise, enforced in CI

Our north star — a fresh Kubernetes cluster showing a live service map in under five minutes, zero app changes — is now a hard CI gate, and the gateway ships as a purpose-built minimal collector.

  • The wedge gate. Every change now runs a kind cluster through the real path: Helm install, a deliberately uninstrumented three-service demo (nginx + busybox — no SDK, no env vars), then a hard assertion that the zero-code service map, call edges included, appears within 300 seconds. Node metrics are asserted on the same clock.
  • Minimal gateway distro. The gateway is now built with the OpenTelemetry Collector Builder from a manifest containing only what the pipeline uses — smaller image, smaller surface. The stock contrib collector remains a drop-in override.
