WalkthroughThe Helm chart now derives node RBAC verbs from the configured provider, engine, and dynamic-node setting. Kubernetes receives ChangesRBAC permission rendering
Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to The chart can still grant unnecessary Kubernetes access, while parts of the RBAC test matrix may either miss permission regressions or fail because required configuration is absent. The PR is not merge-ready until the RBAC template and tests are corrected; the changelog entry also needs release-section follow-up.

[P2] Gate Slinky patch on useDynamicNodes. The Node patch call is reachable only from dynamic-node reconciliation, while non-dynamic Slinky needs only Node reads. Appending patch for every Slinky configuration retains an unnecessary cluster-wide write permission and conflicts with this PR’s least-privilege goal.

Four notes, one of which is currently red in CI.
- [must-fix] The
checksum/configvalues in this snapshot no longer match what the chart renders, sohelm unittest charts/topographfails with 24 snapshot mismatches (main is 153/153 green). Those hashes are the sha256 of the rendered configmaps, whichrbac.yamlcannot influence, so they look regenerated against a tree carrying an unrelated change. Reverting the checksum lines to their base values or regenerating from a clean checkout should clear it. (charts/topograph/tests/snapshot/render_snapshot_test.yaml.snap:50) - [should-fix] Collapsing the node rules into one rule with computed verbs makes this test's only assertion unreachable: helm-unittest
notContainsmatches the whole rule map, and the template can now only emit[list],[list, patch]or[get, list, patch], never a standalone[patch]. Mutating$nodeVerbsto includepatchleaves this test green while five others go red. Asserting the exact rendered verb list (orany: true) restores the guard. (charts/topograph/tests/rbac_test.yaml:192) - [should-fix] This entry landed in the
[v1.0.0]section, which was released 2026-08-18, rather than under[Unreleased]. Probably a casualty of the merge from main that introduced the version heading. (CHANGELOG.md:70) - [consider] Switching these guards from
{{- if }}to{{ if }}leaves blank lines between every rule in the rendered ClusterRole (and a few trailing ones after the last rule). Still valid YAML, just noisier than the rest of the chart. (charts/topograph/templates/rbac.yaml:39)

Collapsing the node rules into one rule with computed verbs makes this test's only assertion unreachable: helm-unittest notContains matches the whole rule map, and the template can now only emit [list], [list, patch] or [get, list, patch], never a standalone [patch]. Mutating $nodeVerbs to include patch leaves this test green while five others go red. Asserting the exact rendered verb list (or any: true) restores the guard.

Nothing here blocks merge.
The verb matrix matches what the code actually does: the k8s engine is the only path that calls Nodes().Get and Nodes().Patch, and slinky only patches inside performReconciliation, which engine.go:488 gates on UseDynamicNodes, so dropping get and patch elsewhere is right. nfd, dra and infiniband-k8s all reach nodes through internal/k8s.GetNodes, which is a List, so [list] fits them. make chart-test is green at this head, and widening the default node verbs to [list, update] does fail the suite. One thing on the slinky gate is inline. Worth fixing the PR title as well: it still carries the branch name rather than describing the RBAC change, and that text lands in the squash commit.
- The notContains guards on the nodes rule cannot fail: helm-unittest compares whole rule entries, and the template only ever emits [list], [list, patch] or [get, list, patch]. Widening the default verbs to [list, update] failed the suite entirely through the contains asserts, with no notContains firing, including the one aimed at update.

The gate reads engine.params.useDynamicNodes at install time, but that is a documented per-request field (docs/api.md:104) and readRequest only backfills config params the payload omits, so a request setting it to true against a release installed without it reaches Nodes().Patch and the 403 surfaces to the caller as a 502. It also fails the other way: helm template --set-string engine.params.useDynamicNodes=false renders ["list","patch"], because the template tests raw truthiness while the engine decodes the value through ParseBool.

@dmitsh I have a small favour to ask that's easier over email than here. Could you share your email, or would you be open to me reaching out via LinkedIn? Thanks! |

Description
Closes #386
This PR updates the Topograph Helm chart to follow the principle of least privilege by rendering only the RBAC permissions required for the configured provider and engine.
Summary
Nodeverbs based on the enabled providers and engines.pods,pods/exec,daemonsets,configmaps, etc.) only when they are required.ClusterRoleandClusterRoleBindingwhen no Kubernetes API permissions are needed.Motivation
Previously, the chart could grant permissions that were unnecessary for a given deployment configuration. This change minimizes the RBAC footprint by ensuring only the permissions required for the selected configuration are rendered, reducing the attack surface while preserving existing functionality.
