Summary

Adds POST /api/v1/alerting/rules/preview for dry-run create or
update without persisting changes.

Stacked on #1121 (single-rule endpoints). After #1121 merges,
rebase to one commit on updated main-alerts-management-api.

Preview shares planning logic with execute paths
(plan_create_user_defined.go, plan_create_platform.go,
plan_update.go) and returns a multi-resource change plan
(resources[], desiredRule, writable, optional managedBy).

Preview API

  • Create preview: alertingRule + optional prometheusRule
  • Update preview: ruleId + at least one of labels,
    alertingRuleEnabled, or classification
  • Response includes per-resource changes[] and full desiredObject
    for UI review
  • Works on externally managed resources (writable: false with
    managedBy)

Tests

  • Unit: preview handler and planning paths
  • Unit: platform preview/execute writable parity
  • E2E: preview no-persistence checks for create and update
  • E2E RBAC: anonymous / namespace-scoped / cluster-admin for
    /rules/preview create and update

Test plan

  • go test ./pkg/management/... ./internal/managementrouter/...
  • go build -tags e2e ./test/e2e/...
  • CI on this PR

Walkthrough

The change adds alert-rule preview, single-rule update, and single-rule delete APIs. It centralizes rule mutation planning, ownership checks, desired-object generation, and non-atomic update handling. Unit, router, parity, and end-to-end tests cover the new flows.

Estimated code review effort: 5 (Critical) | ~120 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to c0207

The PR adds alert-rule previews and refactors create/update planning, but valid restore previews may fail with a server panic and some updates may apply label changes that the preview does not show. These correctness risks should be fixed before merging.

Return the response body for non-200 preview responses.

On a non-200 status the helper discards the body and returns (status, nil, nil). Callers such as previewCreateWithToken report only the numeric status. When an RBAC case returns an unexpected status, the server message is lost, and the failure is hard to diagnose.

createRuleViaAPI at Lines 93-99 already includes the body in its error. Align the preview helper with that behavior.

♻️ Proposed change to preserve the server message
 	if resp.StatusCode != http.StatusOK {
-		_, _ = io.ReadAll(resp.Body)
-		return resp.StatusCode, nil, nil
+		body, readErr := io.ReadAll(resp.Body)
+		if readErr == nil && len(body) > 0 {
+			log.Printf("preview returned %d: %s", resp.StatusCode, string(body))
+		}
+		return resp.StatusCode, nil, nil
 	}

An alternative is to widen the signature to return the raw body, so each caller can include it in its own t.Fatalf message.

This validation branch is unreachable.

The check at lines 38-42 already returns when hasLabels, hasClassification, and hasEnabled are all false. The condition at line 48 requires the same three flags to be false, so the "classification must set at least one field" error can never be returned.

If a request that sends an empty classification object must fail with the specific message, move this check before the combined check at line 38. Otherwise remove the dead branch.

The plan reads the same AlertRelabelConfig twice.

loadARCForRule at line 269 fetches the AlertRelabelConfig. planARCResourceChange fetches the same object again at line 365 with the identical namespace and name. Both calls also recompute arcNamespace. Pass the loaded object and namespace into planARCResourceChange to remove the second API read and the duplicated key derivation.

pkg/management/platform_update_allowance.go (1)

132-146: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick win

Do not derive managedBy from error message text.

allowanceFromPreconditionError classifies the management source with strings.Contains on NotAllowedError.Message. The preview API field managedBy then depends on message wording. A message reword changes API output silently. The direct type assertion also fails for a wrapped *NotAllowedError, while parseError in internal/managementrouter/router.go already uses errors.As.

Add an explicit source field to the precondition errors, or return the source from the validators, and match with errors.As.

♻️ Suggested direction
-	allowance := platformUpdateAllowance{Writable: false, Err: err}
-	if na, ok := err.(*NotAllowedError); ok {
-		switch {
-		case strings.Contains(na.Message, "GitOps"):
-			allowance.ManagedBy = ManagedByGitOps
-		case strings.Contains(na.Message, "operator"):
-			allowance.ManagedBy = ManagedByOperator
-		}

+	allowance := platformUpdateAllowance{Writable: false, Err: err}
+	var na *NotAllowedError
+	if errors.As(err, &na) && na.ManagedBy != "" {

Copy caller-owned label maps before stamping the rule ID.

Both create planners shallow-copy the rule struct and then write the generated rule ID into the existing Labels map. This mutates the caller's request, including during preview, and the same issue exists in the user-defined planner. Copy the map before adding the ID label in both paths.

Reject unprotected provenance labels on the write path.

isProtectedLabel omits four labels that diffLabelSemanticChanges excludes. applyUserDefinedLabelMap can change these labels, and a request that also changes a normal label can persist the unpreviewed changes. Use one shared filter for both paths.

Wait for all rule IDs before the single-rule update cases. waitForSingleUpdateCacheSync waits only for ruleInY, but later cases use ruleInZ and ruleInY2. If the relabeled-rules cache has not included either ID, those requests can return 404 instead of the expected 403 or 200. Wait for all three IDs.

Add POST /api/v1/alerting/rules/preview for create and
update dry-run. Share planning logic with execute paths,
return multi-resource change plans with desiredObject,
and add unit plus e2e RBAC coverage.

Fix golangci-lint: remove unused helper, switch on
managedBy, simplify ObjectMeta field access.
