ci: update artifact hub metadata for v0.3.0

feat: comprehensive Polaris integration enhancements
Major new features: - App bar score badge showing cluster Polaris score - Inline audit results in Deployment/StatefulSet/DaemonSet/Job/CronJob detail views - Exemption management UI with annotation PATCH support - Top issues table on overview dashboard - Audit time display and manual refresh button - Connection test button in settings - Check ID to human-readable name mapping - Enhanced error messages with context Technical improvements: - Added triggerRefresh to PolarisDataContext for manual refresh - Created checkMapping.ts for check metadata - Created topIssues.ts for extracting common failures - Enhanced DashboardView with top issues and refresh - Enhanced PolarisSettings with connection test - Created InlineAuditSection for details view integration - Created AppBarScoreBadge for app bar integration - Created ExemptionManager for annotation patches UI enhancements: - 1000px namespace detail panel - Theme-aware styling throughout - Improved formatting and layout - Better status indicators Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.ai/code) via [Happy](https://happy.engineering) Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com> Co-Authored-By: Happy <yesreply@happy.engineering>

 ## What It Does

-Adds a **Polaris** top-level sidebar section to Headlamp with the following views:
+Adds a **Polaris** top-level sidebar section to Headlamp with comprehensive security, reliability, and efficiency audit integration:

- **Overview** -- cluster score as a percentage (color-coded green/amber/red), check summary (pass/warning/danger/skipped counts), and cluster info (nodes, pods, namespaces, controllers)
- **Namespaces** -- table of all namespaces with per-namespace score, pass/warning/danger/skipped counts; click a namespace to drill down
- **Namespace detail** -- per-namespace score, check counts, and a resource table showing pass/warning/danger per workload
- **External link** -- quick jump to the native Polaris dashboard via the Kubernetes service proxy (from namespace detail view)
+### Main Views

-Data is fetched from the Polaris dashboard API through the Kubernetes service proxy (`/api/v1/namespaces/polaris/services/polaris-dashboard:80/proxy/results.json`). The plugin is read-only -- it never writes to the cluster.
+- **Overview Dashboard** -- cluster score with percentage gauge, check distribution charts, top 10 most common failing checks across the cluster, cluster statistics, and last audit time with manual refresh button
+- **Namespaces** -- table of all namespaces with per-namespace score and check counts; click a namespace to open a detailed side panel (1000px wide, theme-aware)
+- **Namespace Detail Panel** -- per-namespace score, check counts, resource-level audit results, external Polaris dashboard link, and exemption management

-Results are refreshed on a user-configurable interval (1 / 5 / 10 / 30 minutes, default 5). The setting is available in **Settings > Plugins > Polaris** and persists in the browser's localStorage.
+### Integrated Features

-Error states are handled explicitly: RBAC denied (403), Polaris not installed (404/503), malformed JSON, and loading.
+- **App Bar Score Badge** -- cluster Polaris score displayed as a colored chip in the top navigation bar (green ≥80%, yellow ≥50%, red <50%); click to navigate to overview
+- **Inline Resource Audits** -- Polaris audit results automatically injected into detail views for Deployments, StatefulSets, DaemonSets, Jobs, and CronJobs; shows compact score, failing checks table, and link to full report
+- **Exemption Management** -- add or remove Polaris exemptions via annotation patches directly from the UI; supports per-check exemptions or exempt-all
+- **Configurable Dashboard URL** -- supports both Kubernetes service proxy URLs and full HTTP/HTTPS URLs for external Polaris deployments
+- **Connection Testing** -- test button in settings to verify Polaris dashboard connectivity and show version info
+
+### Data & Refresh
+
+Data is fetched from the Polaris dashboard API through the Kubernetes service proxy (`/api/v1/namespaces/polaris/services/polaris-dashboard:80/proxy/results.json`) or custom URLs. The plugin is primarily read-only; it only writes when explicitly applying exemption annotations.
+
+Results are refreshed on a user-configurable interval (1 / 5 / 10 / 30 minutes, default 5). Settings are available in **Settings > Plugins > Polaris** and persist in browser localStorage.

 Each check in a `ResultSet` has `Success` (bool) and `Severity` (`"warning"`, `"danger"`, or `"ignore"`). Checks with `Severity: "ignore"` and `Success: false` are counted as skipped. The cluster score is computed client-side as `pass / total * 100`.

+## Known Limitations
+
+### Skipped Count and Annotation-Based Exemptions
+
+The **Skipped** count shown in the plugin only reflects checks with `Severity: "ignore"` in the Polaris API response. It does **not** include annotation-based exemptions (e.g., `polaris.fairwinds.com/privilegeEscalationAllowed-exempt: "true"`).
+
+**Why?** Polaris completely omits exempted checks from the `results.json` endpoint. The native Polaris dashboard UI computes the "skipped" count client-side by:
+1. Querying Kubernetes resources (Deployments, DaemonSets, StatefulSets, Pods) directly
+2. Parsing their annotations for `polaris.fairwinds.com/*-exempt` keys
+3. Counting how many checks were exempted
+
+This plugin only has access to the processed audit results via the service proxy and does not query raw Kubernetes resources. To show accurate exemption counts, the plugin would need to:
+- Request cluster-wide read access to all workload types (requires additional RBAC grants beyond `services/proxy`)
+- Parse annotations on every workload in every namespace
+- Cross-reference with the Polaris check catalog to count exemptions
+
+This is a significant architectural change and is not currently implemented. Hover over the "Skipped" count in the UI to see a tooltip explaining this limitation.
+
+**Workaround:** Use the "View in Polaris Dashboard" link from any namespace detail view to see the full exemption count in the native dashboard.

+# E2E Smoke Tests
+
+Playwright-based smoke tests that validate the Polaris plugin against a live Headlamp deployment.
+
+## CI
+
+E2E tests run automatically in Gitea Actions on pushes to `main` and pull requests. The workflow (`.gitea/workflows/e2e.yaml`) uses Authentik OIDC for authentication via repo secrets.
+
+### Required Gitea secrets
+
+| Secret               | Description                                                    |
+| -------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| `AUTHENTIK_USERNAME` | Authentik email or username for a CI user with Headlamp access |
+| `AUTHENTIK_PASSWORD` | Password for that user                                         |
+
+## Running Locally
+
+### Option 1: OIDC via Authentik (same as CI)
+
+```bash
+AUTHENTIK_USERNAME=you@example.com AUTHENTIK_PASSWORD=... npm run e2e
+```
+
+The default base URL is `https://headlamp.animaniacs.farh.net`. Override with `HEADLAMP_URL` if needed.
+
+### Option 2: K8s bearer token (port-forward)
+
+```bash
+kubectl port-forward -n kube-system svc/headlamp 4466:80
+export HEADLAMP_TOKEN=$(kubectl create token headlamp -n kube-system)
+HEADLAMP_URL=http://localhost:4466 npm run e2e
+```
+
+Or in headed mode (opens a browser window):
+
+```bash
+HEADLAMP_URL=http://localhost:4466 npm run e2e:headed
+```
+
+## Environment Variables
+
+| Variable             | Required | Default                                | Description                             |
+| -------------------- | -------- | -------------------------------------- | --------------------------------------- |
+| `HEADLAMP_URL`       | No       | `https://headlamp.animaniacs.farh.net` | Base URL of the Headlamp instance       |
+| `AUTHENTIK_USERNAME` | OIDC     | —                                      | Authentik email/username                |
+| `AUTHENTIK_PASSWORD` | OIDC     | —                                      | Authentik password                      |
+| `HEADLAMP_TOKEN`     | Token    | —                                      | Kubernetes bearer token (fallback auth) |
+
+Set either `AUTHENTIK_USERNAME` + `AUTHENTIK_PASSWORD` or `HEADLAMP_TOKEN`. OIDC takes priority if both are set.
+
+## What the Tests Validate
+
+- **Sidebar entry** — The Polaris sidebar item appears after login
+- **Overview page** — Cluster score and check distribution render correctly
+- **Namespaces page** — Table of namespaces loads with clickable links
+- **Namespace detail** — Clicking a namespace shows its score and resource table
+
+These are smoke tests against real cluster data. They verify the plugin loads and renders without errors, not specific data values.
