Guided Cartography install mission in KubeStellar Console

We built a guided install mission for Cartography inside [KubeStellar Console](https://console.kubestellar.io?utm_source=github&utm_medium=issue&utm_campaign=cncf_outreach&utm_term=cartography), a standalone Kubernetes dashboard (unrelated to legacy kubestellar/kubestellar, kubeflex, or OCM — zero shared code). > **[Open the Cartography install mission](https://console.kubestellar.io/missions/install-cartography?utm_source=github&utm_medium=issue&utm_campaign=cncf_outreach&utm_term=cartography)** ### What the mission does The mission runs against your live cluster via kubeconfig. Each step: 1. **Pre-flight** — checks prerequisites (>=1.24, Ensure you have a Kubernetes cluster running and kubectl installed.) 2. **Commands** — shows the exact `helm install` / `kubectl apply` with flags explained. Copy-paste or run directly from the console 3. **Validation** — after each step, queries the cluster to verify success (pod phase, CRD registration, service endpoints) 4. **Troubleshooting** — on failure, reads pod logs, events, and resource status from your cluster and suggests fixes 5. **Rollback** — each step includes the corresponding `helm uninstall` / `kubectl delete` to undo Works as read-only documentation too — no cluster connection required to browse. ### Architecture ```mermaid graph LR A["KubeStellar Console"] --> B["30+ Dashboards<br/>150+ Monitoring Cards"] A --> M["Marketplace<br/>(console-marketplace)"] A --> D["AI Mission Explorer"] D --> E["console-kb"] E --> F["186 Install Missions<br/>67 Solution Missions"] A --> C["AI Recommendations"] A --> H["kc-agent → Codex, Copilot,<br/>Claude CLI, Kube API, MCP"] click A href "https://console.kubestellar.io?utm_source=github&utm_medium=issue&utm_campaign=cncf_outreach&utm_term=cartography" _blank click M href "https://github.com/kubestellar/console-marketplace?utm_source=github&utm_medium=issue&utm_campaign=cncf_outreach&utm_term=cartography" _blank click E href "https://github.com/kubestellar/console-kb/blob/master/fixes/cncf-install/install-cartography.json?utm_source=github&utm_medium=issue&utm_campaign=cncf_outreach&utm_term=cartography" _blank click F href "https://console.kubestellar.io/missions/install-cartography?utm_source=github&utm_medium=issue&utm_campaign=cncf_outreach&utm_term=cartography" _blank click H href "https://github.com/kubestellar/console/tree/main/cmd/kc-agent?utm_source=github&utm_medium=issue&utm_campaign=cncf_outreach&utm_term=cartography" _blank ``` - **console-kb** — YAML-based knowledge base defining each mission's steps, commands, and validation checks ([Cartography installer definition](https://github.com/kubestellar/console-kb/blob/master/fixes/cncf-install/install-cartography.json?utm_source=github&utm_medium=issue&utm_campaign=cncf_outreach&utm_term=cartography)) - **console-marketplace** — community-contributed monitoring cards per CNCF project ([github.com/kubestellar/console-marketplace](https://github.com/kubestellar/console-marketplace?utm_source=github&utm_medium=issue&utm_campaign=cncf_outreach&utm_term=cartography)) - **kc-agent** — bridges coding agents (Codex, Copilot, Claude CLI) to Kube API and MCP servers (kubestellar-ops, kubestellar-deploy) for automated cluster operations ### Install Local (connects to your current kubeconfig context): ```bash curl -sSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kubestellar/console/main/start.sh | bash ``` With GitHub OAuth: ```bash export GITHUB_CLIENT_ID=<your-client-id> export GITHUB_CLIENT_SECRET=<your-client-secret> curl -sSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kubestellar/console/main/start.sh | bash ``` Deploy into a cluster: ```bash curl -sSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kubestellar/console/main/deploy.sh | bash ``` --- Mission definitions are open source — PRs to improve the Cartography mission welcome at [install-cartography.json](https://github.com/kubestellar/console-kb/blob/master/fixes/cncf-install/install-cartography.json?utm_source=github&utm_medium=issue&utm_campaign=cncf_outreach&utm_term=cartography).
