Package and Install

Audience: operator maintainers and platform teams Status: Preview

Project-scoped operator installation is a reproducibility boundary. Installed operator metadata belongs in the project store and should be reflected by the project operator lock.

Install Through the Platform Surface

Section titled “Install Through the Platform Surface”

Use the CLI or another platform-owned control surface:

Terminal window
ophiolite install-operator-package .\demo-project .\operator-package.json
ophiolite project-operator-lock .\demo-project

What Installation Does

Section titled “What Installation Does”
  • copies or registers the operator manifest in the project store
  • records the package in the project operator lock
  • exposes catalog metadata to platform surfaces
  • keeps later execution tied to the same validation, provenance, and run-record path as built-in operators

Why This Matters

Section titled “Why This Matters”

Installation is what keeps external code from becoming an untracked side effect.
