🚀 Keep Your Scaffold Updated

The migration guide covers upgrading from any version to the latest, including AI-assisted helpers/commands for legacy scaffolds that may require manual steps. For the smoothest path, enable the AutoUpdate Plugin (uses GitHub Actions) or run kubebuilder alpha update locally—both use the same update logic. The other options are primarily for older projects missing cliVersion in the PROJECT file as a one-time step to reach a supported version; after that, you can rely on these workflows for ongoing updates.

🐛 Bug fixes

  • (go/v4): Upgrade controller-runtime from v0.23.0 to v0.23.1. For further information, see its release notes.(#​5402)
  • (helm/v2-alpha): Escape existing Go template syntax in generated Helm charts to prevent rendering conflicts. (#​5388)
  • (helm/v2-alpha): Prevent CRs (Custom Resources) resources from being added to the extras directory. (#​5389)
  • (CLI): Insert build information into Go tools installation methods used by the CLI version command. (#​5303)
  • (CLI): Format the output of the version subcommand for improved readability and consistency. (#​5236)
  • (API): Move the cmd package under internal to improve encapsulation and API boundaries. (#​5400)

Note: If you did not upgrade your project to v4.11.0, please make sure to review its release notes, as they contain important major changes that also apply to this release.

🎉 Thanks to all contributors!

🚀 Keep Your Scaffold Updated

🎉 Our migration guide was fully updated to help you upgrade from any version to the latest. It also now includes AI migration helpers/commands to guide upgrades for old scaffolds where manual steps are required. See the migrations guidance.

Automate updates with kubebuilder edit --plugins="autoupdate.kubebuilder.io/v1-alpha" or run them manually with kubebuilder alpha update. If your PROJECT file does not include cliVersion, you may need a one-time upgrade, and kubebuilder alpha generate can fully re-scaffold the project in one step. After that, updates work seamlessly.

⚠️ Breaking changes

controller-runtime v0.23.0 upgrade (v0.22.4 → v0.23.0)

This release updates Kubebuilder scaffolding to match controller-runtime v0.23.0. This version includes breaking changes that impact generated projects:

  1. Type-safe webhook builder API — webhooks now use generics for stronger type safety
  2. New Events API — migration from tools/record to tools/events
  3. ENVTEST teardown — testEnv.Stop() now requires an Eventually wrapper for graceful shutdown
If you use the Helm plugin to distribute your project

This release includes major Helm plugin changes (community-raised fixes and improvements have been addressed). Please update your project:

kubebuilder edit --plugins=helm/v2-alpha --force

If you have customisations, back up your current Helm chart first so you can re-apply them on top of the latest version.

Tip: Check the PROJECT file to see which plugin/version your project is using.
