Ran live cutover POCs in the sandbox VM against the real target software and
promoted both drivers from MOCK-ONLY to LIVE-VM in the proof table (data, not
driver behaviour):
- k8s: proven against real k3s v1.35 kube-apiserver + token controller
(lab-provision-k8s.sh). The real apiserver serves a self-signed cert, so the
driver gained CA-pinned TLS — blob params ca= (base64 PEM, pinned as the only
trusted root) and insecure=1 (lab-only escape hatch), routed through a new
clientFor(cr). Neither is test-awareness; a real deployment configures the same
CA. Added TestK8sTLSTrust covering CA-pinned / insecure / untrusted-rejection
and the blob round-trip.
- mongo: proven against real mongod 8.0 (lab-provision-mongo.sh).
npm stays MOCK-ONLY by decision (registry.npmjs.org not self-hostable; real
create-token requires the account password in the body) — documented as a
contract gap rather than faking a LIVE-VM. gcp/twilio/flyio remain MOCK-ONLY.
Live POCs surfaced real-target-only behaviour now recorded in the docs: the
apiserver's ~10s successful-auth cache (old token kept working ~7s after Secret
deletion) and real mongosh's stdout prompt. Full suite 104 green, -race clean.

Each driver is real-service code only (no test awareness; tests inject just an
HTTPClient/Bin), following the established patterns:
- mongo: in-place changeUserPassword over the old connection; no secret on argv
(host/db on the URI, both passwords on stdin, output scrubbed).
- npm: create token -> /-/whoami -> delete-by-key; blob records the key.
- gcp: service-account KEY rotation; mints an RS256 JWT signed with the SA's
own private key (crypto/rsa, stdlib) to self-auth the IAM create/verify/delete.
- twilio: API Key create -> get -> delete, Basic auth (KeySid/secret).
- flyio: GraphQL — a managing token mints/deletes the rotated deploy token.
- k8s: create a service-account-token Secret, await the populated token,
verify against the SA, delete the old Secret (invalidates the old token).
All 6 register their honest proof level (MOCK-ONLY) in proofs.go +
ROTATION-PROOFS.md; mongo/npm/k8s are LIVE-VM candidates pending real-target VM
POCs. Emulators enforce credential validity (gcp verifies the JWT signature),
tests assert Verify(old) fails after revoke + a secret-leak canary.
Full suite: 103 green, -race clean on rotate/sink/vault.
