P0a2 — Namespace inheritance resolver + orca ns CLI subcommands. Resolver (REQ-082, internal/ns/resolve.go): - Pure Resolve() function: DFS post-order chain assembly (most-specific first, _defaults implicit last D-185). Child-wins-scalar env merge, de-duped union constraints. Cycle detection with readable cycle path. Missing-parent + missing-_defaults + misordering (['_defaults','x']) rejection. Opt-out impossible (D-187). 89.6% coverage. Parser (internal/ns/parse.go): - ParseNSMd: hand-rolled YAML frontmatter (no yaml.v3 dep). Validates kind:Namespace + name, parses parents flow-array, inherits_env/secrets. - ParseNSMdDir: walks root/*/ns.md, skips cluster/, requires _defaults. CLI (internal/cli/ns.go, D-176): - orca ns list/create/delete/inspect/validate. Inspect + validate use the resolver. Create refuses _defaults/cluster; delete refuses _defaults + non-empty namespaces. JSON output support. 85.2% coverage. - Registered on rootCmd. Tests: resolve_test.go (11 tests), parse_test.go (14 tests), ns_test.go (21 tests). 18 packages pass, 20 bats pass, gofmt clean, verify-reqs 90 consistent. ---ci--- project: orca phase: P0a2 milestone: v0.9 status: execute ---/ci---
Orca
Offline/CLI-first orchestration engine inspired by HashiCorp Nomad, far simpler than Kubernetes.
Status
v0.1: Foundation — see .ciagent/ROADMAP.md for the 6-phase plan.
Pillars
- Simplicity — single binary, minimal dependencies
- AI-first — CLI designed for both humans and AI agents
- Offline-first — no cloud dependencies
- CLI-first — primary interface is the command line
- Security before features — NFRs ship before new functionality
- Bug fixes before features — stability is paramount
- NFRs before features — observability and auditability first
Quickstart
Install (1-liner)
# User-level install (binary at ~/.local/bin/orca, state at ~/.orca)
curl -fsSL https://git.cloudinit.dev/coreci/orca/raw/branch/main/scripts/install.sh | bash
# System-level install (binary at /usr/local/bin/orca, state at /root/.orca)
curl -fsSL https://git.cloudinit.dev/coreci/orca/raw/branch/main/scripts/install.sh | sudo bash -s -- --system
# Pin a specific version
curl -fsSL https://git.cloudinit.dev/coreci/orca/raw/branch/main/scripts/install.sh | bash -s -- --version v0.4.2
Then initialize local state and verify:
orca init # creates ~/.orca/ (or /root/.orca with --system)
orca version # prints version info
orca --help # show all subcommands
Build from source
make build # Build binary to ./bin/orca
./bin/orca init # Initialize local state
./bin/orca version # Verify
Update in place
Re-running the installer updates the binary while preserving your config, database, and certificates in the namespace dir:
curl -fsSL https://git.cloudinit.dev/coreci/orca/raw/branch/main/scripts/install.sh | bash
# → "updated orca from v0.4.1 to v0.4.2"
