August 2025: Delivered a reproducible base for the LAA Pact Broker in ministryofjustice/cloud-platform-environments, along with centralized secrets management and CI reliability improvements. Key outcomes include provisioning a Kubernetes namespace with RBAC, quotas, and policies plus an RDS PostgreSQL instance, and bootstrapping AWS ECR credentials via initial Terraform modules; implemented AWS Secrets Manager integration and consolidated secret handling into a single secrets_manager module with Kubernetes secret usage; improved CI stability by temporarily skipping the laa-data-pact-broker namespace to prevent pipeline failures; fixed the OIDC/ECR namespace configuration by correcting the GitHub repository reference for the laa-data-pact-broker; and kept credentials up-to-date by bumping the cloud-platform-terraform-ecr-credentials module to the latest version. Representative commits include 0cec86fb713f73af410e30ce1eca40b0b2fd6700, 7afc6fe5fc65c4b09638169be0ebbb77f484a569, 966a086e53f343a0352483b2c52c643cdb96a925, 05ece7b7f8fcb9dafead45e6c281284d8e3e434f, and 9382d661b76b7a8cc86840cde2838f0e5d14771f.
