// Deploy the ToolHive Registry Server to a Kind cluster with telemetry enabled. Use when you need to deploy the registry server for testing with OTEL metrics and tracing.
Start the Registry Server via docker compose and run a suite of curl-based smoke tests covering system, read-only MCP API, admin API, entry lifecycle, and OAuth/auth enforcement scenarios.
Deploy the ToolHive Registry Server to a Kind cluster with CloudNativePG (CNPG) PostgreSQL database. Use when you need a production-like PostgreSQL setup with the CNPG operator.
Deploy the OpenTelemetry observability stack (Prometheus, Grafana, OTEL Collector) to a Kind cluster for testing registry server telemetry. Use when you need to set up monitoring, metrics collection, or observability infrastructure.

Deploy the ToolHive Registry Server to a Kind cluster with OpenTelemetry telemetry enabled.

=== Registry Server Deployment Complete ===
To access the registry server API:
kubectl port-forward -n toolhive-system svc/toolhive-registry-server 8080:8080 --kubeconfig kconfig.yaml
Then test with:
curl http://localhost:8080/health
curl http://localhost:8080/registry/v0.1/servers
View metrics in Grafana:
kubectl port-forward -n monitoring svc/kube-prometheus-stack-grafana 3000:3000 --kubeconfig kconfig.yaml
Open http://localhost:3000 (admin / admin)

The skill dynamically configures telemetry via Helm --set flags:
| Setting | Value |
|---|---|
config.telemetry.enabled | true |
config.telemetry.serviceName | thv-registry-api |
config.telemetry.endpoint | otel-collector-opentelemetry-collector.monitoring.svc.cluster.local:4318 |
config.telemetry.insecure | true |
config.telemetry.metrics.enabled | true |
config.telemetry.tracing.enabled | false |
config.telemetry.tracing.sampling | 1.0 |
To uninstall the registry server:
helm uninstall toolhive-registry-server --namespace toolhive-system --kubeconfig kconfig.yaml
