jmp admin create builds a Client or an Exporter from flags, which stops where a resource has more shape than flags can carry: an ExporterSet's selector, template and replica bounds have to be written as YAML, and there was no way to send that YAML to the cluster without kubectl.

Adds jmp admin apply -f <file|->. Resources are sent as a server-side apply, so the same manifest creates a resource and later updates it, and each is reported the way kubectl does — created, configured or unchanged. Kind plurals and scope come from the cluster's discovery data rather than a table in this client, so kinds added later apply without another release. Only the jumpstarter.dev API groups are accepted; a manifest naming any other group is refused before anything reaches the cluster.

Conflicts are reported rather than won. An apply that would take a field another manager owns fails and names the field; --force-conflicts takes it deliberately, as in kubectl.

Also fixes handle_k8s_api_exception, which raised KeyError: 'reason' on any Status without one — which is what a schema or admission failure returns, so those surfaced as tracebacks instead of the server's message.

A Status returned by a schema or admission check often has a message and
no reason, and indexing the reason turned that into a KeyError traceback
instead of the message the user needs:

    KeyError: 'reason'

Fall back to the message, then to the HTTP reason, and keep the reason in
the prefix only when the server sent one.

jmp admin create builds a Client or an Exporter from flags, which stops
where a resource has more shape than flags can carry: an ExporterSet's

Add jmp admin apply, the write half of jmp admin get:

    jmp admin apply -f exporterset.yaml
    jmp admin apply -f - --dry-run

Resources are sent as a server-side apply, so the same manifest creates a
resource and later updates it, and each one is reported the way kubectl
does, as created, configured or unchanged. The kind's plural name and
scope come from the cluster's discovery data rather than a table in this
client, so kinds added later - ExporterSet and VirtualTargetClass today -
apply without another release.

Only the jumpstarter.dev API groups are accepted. This is the Jumpstarter
admin CLI, not a general purpose kubectl apply, and a manifest naming any
other group is refused before anything reaches the cluster.

Review Change Stack

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The change adds manifest validation and loading, Kubernetes server-side apply support, and the jmp admin apply command. It supports multiple files, stdin, dry runs, namespaces, structured output, resource action reporting, and improved Kubernetes API error handling.

Changes

Manifest Apply

Layer / File(s) Summary
Manifest contracts and loading
python/packages/jumpstarter-kubernetes/jumpstarter_kubernetes/apply.py, python/packages/jumpstarter-kubernetes/jumpstarter_kubernetes/__init__.py, python/packages/jumpstarter-kubernetes/jumpstarter_kubernetes/apply_test.py
Adds manifest validation, multi-document YAML loading, applied-resource models, and public exports.
Kubernetes apply execution
python/packages/jumpstarter-kubernetes/jumpstarter_kubernetes/apply.py, python/packages/jumpstarter-kubernetes/jumpstarter_kubernetes/apply_test.py
Resolves resource endpoints through discovery, reads existing resources, sends server-side apply PATCH requests, supports dry runs and namespaces, and reports created, configured, or unchanged.
Admin CLI integration and output
python/packages/jumpstarter-cli-admin/jumpstarter_cli_admin/__init__.py, python/packages/jumpstarter-cli-admin/jumpstarter_cli_admin/apply.py, python/packages/jumpstarter-cli-admin/jumpstarter_cli_admin/apply_test.py
Registers the apply command. The command accepts files or stdin, applies manifests, and prints human-readable, name-only, or JSON results.
Kubernetes error translation
python/packages/jumpstarter-cli-admin/jumpstarter_cli_admin/k8s.py, python/packages/jumpstarter-cli-admin/jumpstarter_cli_admin/k8s_test.py
Handles missing or non-string Kubernetes error fields and covers JSON, non-JSON, and empty response bodies.

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to f3ff3

This PR adds a manifest-driven admin path that can create or update Jumpstarter resources. By default, it may overwrite fields owned by other controllers, and a multi-resource file can leave earlier changes applied when a later resource fails; malformed API error bodies and dry-run updates can also produce incorrect CLI behavior. These issues should be fixed or explicitly accepted before merging.

Poem

A rabbit loads YAML beneath the moon,
Then patches each resource in tidy tune.
Created and configured hop into view,
Dry runs and JSON reports follow through.
Kubernetes errors now speak clearly too.

"applyable" is not a word; the point was that a subresource is not a kind
you can send a manifest for.

In `@python/packages/jumpstarter-cli-admin/jumpstarter_cli_admin/k8s.py`:
- Line 18: Update the error-body handling around json.loads(e.body) so message
extraction only calls .get("message") for dictionary values; for null, lists,
strings, numbers, and other non-dictionaries, fall back to the existing reason
or "unknown error" and raise click.ClickException. Add a regression test
covering body="null".

In `@python/packages/jumpstarter-kubernetes/jumpstarter_kubernetes/apply.py`:
- Line 285: Update apply() and _action_taken() so dry-run results are evaluated
using the requested update rather than treating an unchanged
metadata.resourceVersion as unchanged; preserve normal server-backed comparison
behavior for non-dry-run operations. Add a server-backed test covering a changed
resource with dry_run=True and assert it is reported as configured.
- Line 222: Update ApplyV1Alpha1Api._server_side_apply so PATCH requests do not
include force=true by default; remove the unconditional force query parameter
and add an explicit opt-in mechanism for callers that need conflict forcing,
while preserving the existing fieldManager parameter.

Comment thread python/packages/jumpstarter-kubernetes/jumpstarter_kubernetes/apply.py Outdated
Server-side apply sent force=true on every request, so `jmp admin apply`
silently took ownership of any field another manager held. Make it opt-in
behind --force-conflicts, as kubectl does, and point at the flag when a
conflict is what stopped the apply.

A dry run is never persisted, so its resource version does not move either
and every dry run reported "unchanged". Compare what the server says the
object would become instead, ignoring the fields the server owns.

Also stop reading a non-Status JSON error body as a Status: a proxy in front
of the API server can answer with null, a list, or a bare string, which
raised AttributeError instead of the server's error.
