February 2026 monthly summary for NeuraLegion/helmcharts. Focused on delivering a robust, scalable deployment path for the stresstesting-bridges-api via Kubernetes Helm, with enhanced reliability and observability to support repeatable load testing pipelines.

Month: 2026-01 — NeuraLegion/helmcharts delivered two targeted Helm chart enhancements focused on deployment readiness and dependency compatibility. The changes improve deployment stability and accelerate upgrades for AltoroJ and simple-service across environments, with clear traceability to commits.

Month: 2025-11 — NeuraLegion/helmcharts. The focus this month was enhancing reproducibility of security benchmarks and aligning deployment practices to ensure deterministic results. No major bugs reported in this scope.

August 2025: Delivered a security/configuration improvement in NeuraLegion/helmcharts by disabling HSTS across ingresses. This included: (1) setting the HSTS header to max-age=0, (2) removing the HSTS header from ingress configuration, and (3) upgrading the Helm chart to version 0.1.32. The change reduces unintended strict-transport-enforcement in environments with upstream TLS termination, improving deployment flexibility and security posture. This work is fully traceable through the commits listed below.

July 2025: Focused on delivering end-to-end Helm-based deployments for key applications on Kubernetes (DVWA, SecureBank, BrokenCrystals) with robust defaults, environment configurations, and health probes. Implemented AWS-ready deployment patterns, improved reliability with extended proxy timeouts, and default-enabled features (Olama). Standardized deployment templates across charts to enable repeatable releases, faster on-boarding, and improved maintainability. Aligned image references to Docker Hub for consistency across deployments and enhanced deployment pipelines.

2025-04 Monthly summary: Focused on improving CI/CD reliability for NeuraLegion/helmcharts by delivering chart testing enhancements and conditional ingress deployment. Implemented chart-testing configuration, updated Helm templates to deploy ingress resources only when appropriate, and fixed the test connection script for ingress URL checks to ensure the chart linter passes. This work reduces release risk and accelerates validation of helm charts. Commit: 2de4930ba283636d398b82c28d163270a1c07378 (IR-673).

March 2025 — NeuraLegion/helmcharts: Stabilized stress testing ingress by removing unsupported keepalive directives and updating the chart version to reflect the change, improving reliability of the stress testing environment and alignment with current ingress controllers.

February 2025: Delivered a deployment-stability upgrade by migrating the brokencrystals Helm chart in NeuraLegion/helmcharts to the latest stable release. This involved updating Chart.yaml version and values.yaml image tag to reference the stable-4de8e1 release, ensuring deployments run on the current stable version. No major bugs were reported in this repository this month; the focus was on delivering a reliable upgrade path and alignment with upstream stability. Overall, this upgrade reduces upgrade risk, improves consistency across environments, and simplifies future maintenance.

January 2025 monthly summary for NeuraLegion/helmcharts focusing on stability, versioning, and release hygiene. Key stabilization work centered on Keycloak integration rollback and Helm chart metadata update, improving reliability and traceability for auth-related deployments.

2024-12 monthly summary for NeuraLegion/helmcharts: Implemented resource provisioning improvements in Helm charts for Commix and Beebox to boost deployment performance and reliability. Increased CPU requests for Commix simple-service to 1 core and memory for Beebox; updated chart versions to reflect resource changes. Focused on resource sizing and chart versioning to ensure stable deployments. No major bug fixes reported this month; main work supports scalable, predictable Kubernetes deployments.
