prometheus-community/helm-charts

Contributed an upstream fix to the Kubernetes monitoring ecosystem by improving label propagation for kube-prometheus-stack CRD upgrade resources.

• 🔧 Fixed inconsistent crds.upgradeJob.labels propagation
• 🎯 Ensured configured labels are consistently applied across CRD upgrade resources
• 🤝 Collaborated directly with upstream maintainers through review and iteration
• 👨‍💻 Author of the merged change
• 🤝 Final squash commit includes co-authorship with Jan-Otto Kröpke
• ✅ Passed Chart Testing, Super Linter, generated-file checks, and integration tests
• 🚀 PR #7271 — Merged into prometheus-community/helm-charts:main
• 🔗 Merged commit: 59947e7

MSKazemi/kubeintellect

Contributed a TLS certificate troubleshooting playbook with concrete SNI/SAN inspection for Kubernetes incidents. The maintainer merged the relevant work into the project through PR #226, shipping commit 275e41d9.

• 🔐 Added SNI/SAN inspection using openssl s_client -showcerts
• 📜 Reads certificate validity and SAN coverage from tls.crt without touching tls.key
• 🎯 Covers certificates that are unexpired but don't cover the requested hostname
• 🧪 Tested against the project's real 27-playbook registry and multiple incident snapshots
• 🔒 Avoided requiring additional cert-manager RBAC permissions
• 🤝 Incorporated maintainer review and testing into the final implementation
• 🏆 Merged upstream and credited in .all-contributorsrc, README, and CHANGELOG
• 🚀 PR #211 — Merged via #226
• 🔗 Merged commit: 275e41d9
