Part V — Deployers and Sources

This part covers where scenarios run and where their nodes come from.

Clusters provision to local processes, Docker Compose, or Kubernetes through one request and handle model — the provisioner passed per app selects the backend — and scenarios can also attach to clusters you already operate.

• Capability Matrix — feature support per deployer
• Local Deployer — processes on your machine
• Compose Deployer — containerized clusters
• Kubernetes Deployer — Helm releases in isolated namespaces
• Shared Cluster Provisioning — one request and handle model across cluster sources
• Existing and External Clusters — attaching to live systems
• Binary Providers — resolving node binaries: path, env, build, download
• Readiness, Retry, and Artifact Preservation — deployment policy
