Distribution checklist

Steps to make karpenter-provider-hetzner discoverable and drive adoption once v1.0.0 is tagged and the signed image + OCI Helm chart are published.

Backlink strategy: the anchor is a Paperclip.inc page, ideally a blog article about the provider (e.g. https://paperclip.inc/blog/karpenter-hetzner). Every external listing's primary/Homepage link points at Paperclip.inc so the domain earns the backlinks; the GitHub repo is only the secondary "source" link. The chart home and Artifact Hub "Homepage" link already point at https://paperclip.inc/karpenter-hetzner (update to the final blog URL once published).

Legend: [auto] doable from a repo · [acct] needs an external account/login · [ext-pr] needs a PR to an external repo.

Anchor: Paperclip.inc blog article [auto + acct]

  • Write a Paperclip.inc engineering blog post ("A production Karpenter provider for Hetzner") in the marketing site, brand-voice compliant. This is the backlink target everything else points at. No fabricated adoption numbers.
  • Optionally a thin /karpenter-hetzner landing page that features the post and the install command; set the chart home to whichever is canonical.

Artifact Hub [acct]

  • Register the OCI chart repo at https://artifacthub.io/control-panel/repositories (Add repository -> Helm charts -> OCI -> oci://ghcr.io/paperclipinc/charts).
  • Paste the generated repositoryID into artifacthub-repo.yml, re-push it to the OCI registry. The chart's artifacthub.io/* annotations already set the Homepage link to Paperclip.inc.

karpenter-core community providers docs [ext-pr]

  • PR to kubernetes-sigs/karpenter adding Hetzner to the community/third-party providers list. Link text -> Paperclip.inc page; repo as the code link.

awesome-karpenter [ext-pr]

  • PR to the awesome-karpenter providers section. Primary link -> Paperclip.inc page; mention the repo.

CNCF landscape [ext-pr]

  • PR to cncf/landscape under the autoscaling category (homepage_url -> Paperclip.inc, repo_url -> GitHub, license Apache-2.0).

Hetzner community [acct]

  • Tutorial on the Hetzner Community portal: "Autoscale a Talos k8s cluster on Hetzner with Karpenter", linking the Paperclip.inc article.

README badges [auto]

  • Add the Artifact Hub badge once the listing exists.
