summary
Proposes inserting a centralized Nebraska update manager before Flux so Nebraska becomes the single source of truth for which git ref to deploy and when to deploy it, with policy enforcement and aggregated update statuses. A lightweight in‑cluster Nebraska Update Agent (NUA) writes the Flux CR to point at the approved commit, reports reconciliation results back, and supports policies like one‑cluster‑at‑a‑time, abort on first failure, and time windows. Demo shows the flow working end‑to‑end for a single instance and claims it scales to many clusters.
