there).

Changes:
-
`hack/third_party/csi-driver-host-path/deploy/csi-hostpath-testing.yaml`:
same fix as #1288 — the inline `watched_directory` was a no-op, so the
serving cert and trust bundle move to filesystem SDS (SPIFFE SAN pin
kept inline via `combined_validation_context`). SDS requires a node id
and this sidecar passes no `--service-node`, so the bootstrap gains a
`node:` stanza; the `docs/csi-deployment.md` example had the same gap
and gets one too.
- `overlay_test.go` now asserts `watched_directory` appears nowhere in
the emitted cluster block or the patched `envoy.yaml` (comments
excluded) and is present in each SDS resource file, per review.
- Corrected the test comment claiming the sdsmint e2e suite is skipped
in CI: the sdsmint variant is deployed in the MITM lanes; only the
`--experimental-additional-egress-extproc-service` injection has no e2e
coverage.
Verification: `go test ./cmd/ate-setup/...` passes; `envoy --mode
validate` (v1.34) passes on the reworked csi-hostpath bootstrap with
dummy PEMs mounted at the referenced paths.
Secures network-based gRPC connections between the ate-api control plane
and CSI driver controller services using mutual TLS (mTLS) backed by
Substrate's Pod Identity.
Requests from ate-api to CSI driver controllers occur over the network,
as configured via the CSIDriverConfig custom resource. This PR extends
the CSIDriverConfig CRD to include a tls configuration section, which
leverages
Substrate's Pod Identity certificate infrastructure (managed by
podcertcontroller) to secure these
TCP connections using mTLS. Because standard CSI drivers typically
communicate over Unix domain sockets, a proxy sidecar (e.g., envoy) is
added to the CSI controller deployment to terminate TLS and forward
requests to the local CSI socket.

This is the initial release of the Agent Substrate.
Agent substrate is a system built on top of Kubernetes which manages agent-like
workloads to achieve higher scale and efficiency than Kubernetes alone can
offer, with lower latency. It builds on top of Kubernetes features like
Pods and Pod autoscaling, but takes the Kubernetes control-plane out of the
critical path to achieve lower latency.
It can run on any Kubernetes cluster and does not inhibit “regular” use of
Kubernetes in any way. Kubernetes provides the infrastructure provisioning and
management for all types of workloads, while Agent Substrate provides
agent-specific scheduling and control.
At its core, Agent Substrate maps a larger set of “actors” (applications such
as agents) onto a smaller set of ready “workers” (Kubernetes Pods), relying on
the fact that agent-like applications tend to be idle most of the time to
achieve heavy multiplexing. It provides functionality to manage an actor’s
lifecycle (e.g. create/destroy, suspend/resume), to assign actors to workers in real
time, and to route incoming traffic to them.
Agent Substrate is intended to be a low-opinion system. The workloads it
manages don't have to be literal AI agents, but those are the best example of
the kind of applications it is designed for. It is not an SDK for building
agents, but rather a system for running them at scale.
Agent Substrate is currently in VERY early development. It is not ready for
production use, and the APIs are almost guaranteed to change. We are not
making any guarantees about backward compatibility at this stage, and
everything in this project may be changed.
