Custom Resource
Definitions
Custom Resource is a GitOps term for a Kubernetes API extension managed by controllers. It helps teams, humans, and agents compare declared source state with running systems, then act without pretending a deployment did more than the evidence shows. Source context: Kubernetes controller pattern.
