Group Level Cluster View

Problem to solve

The GitLab agent for Kubernetes related views could handle a holistic approach to assure that they will scale as we add more functionality at the project and group levels.

The current situation is:

• every agent is registered in a project, let's call it the agent configuration project
• every agent connection can be shared with other groups and projects to support CI/CD workflows
• WIP every agent will be able to grab and deploy Kubernetes manifests from other projects to support GitOps workflows

In terms of views

• We require a group-level cluster view.

Note:

• The group-level clusters page only shows the deprecated cert-based clusters https://gitlab.com/groups/gitlab-org/ci-cd/deploy-stage/demos/-/clusters
• While this project has an agent https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/ci-cd/deploy-stage/demos/gcp-oidc-test/-/clusters
• And that agent is shared here https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/ci-cd/deploy-stage/demos/podtato-head/-/clusters

Intended users

• Primarily: Infrastructure and Platform Engineers
• Secondarily: Software Engineers (for shared CI/CD agents connections)

User experience goal

Provide users with a group-level cluster view.
