Taylor Mutch 8fd574780c ci(helm): add OCI chart release workflow (#1196)
* ci(helm): add OCI chart release workflow

Publishes the Helm chart to ghcr.io/nvidia/openshell/helm-chart via helm push on every tag (versioned + :latest) and main push (:0.0.0-dev overwrite + :0.0.0-dev.<sha> per-commit pin). Renames Chart.yaml name to helm-chart to match the target OCI path.

* ci(helm): use full sha in dev pinned chart version

The container images pushed by docker-build.yml are tagged with the
full $GITHUB_SHA, not a 7-char prefix. Match the chart's pinned
version (0.0.0-dev.<full-sha>) so the chart tag and the image tag
the chart resolves to are identical.

* docs(readme): add helm chart install instructions

Document the OCI chart at ghcr.io/nvidia/openshell/helm-chart with
examples for tagged, floating dev, and SHA-pinned dev installs, and
flag the Kubernetes deployment path as experimental.

* docs(helm): split chart details into chart README

Move the dev tag conventions and configuration pointers into a new
README under deploy/helm/openshell/ and shorten the top-level README
section to the install command (no --version, defaults to latest
tagged semver) plus a link to the chart README.

OpenShell Helm Chart

Experimental — the Kubernetes deployment path is under active development. Expect rough edges and breaking changes.

This chart deploys the OpenShell gateway into a Kubernetes cluster. It is published as an OCI artifact to GHCR at oci://ghcr.io/nvidia/openshell/helm-chart.

Install

helm install openshell oci://ghcr.io/nvidia/openshell/helm-chart --version <version>

Available versions

Tag Source Notes
<semver> (e.g. 0.6.0) Tagged GitHub release Tracks the matching gateway and supervisor image versions. Recommended for production.
0.0.0-dev Latest commit on main Floating tag, overwritten on every push. appVersion is dev, so images resolve to the :dev tag.
0.0.0-dev.<commit-sha> A specific commit on main Per-commit pin. Chart version and appVersion both use the full 40-character commit SHA, which matches the image tag pushed by CI.

The dev tags are intended for testing changes ahead of a release. Production deployments should pin to a tagged release.

Configuration
