summary
Argues for adding verbose identity metadata into Kubernetes protocols, shows a working pipeline that logs user agents in 1.12, extends the e2e test suite reporting to tie tests to API endpoints, and produces sunburst coverage graphs and drilldowns that map specific CLI paths through client‑go to the API server.
