Update the error message reference from the non-existent e2e-ci-runner.yaml
to the actual file e2e-ci-runner-headlamp-rbac.yaml per PRI-1011.

 ## [Unreleased]
 
+## [1.0.0] - 2026-03-22
+
+First stable release. The plugin API (routes, sidebar entries, settings schema, and app bar action) is
+now frozen — no breaking changes without a new major version.
+
+### Security
+- Patched 8 of 9 npm audit vulnerabilities via `pnpm.overrides` (#92)
+
+### Added
+- **Dual-approval CI check**: PRs now require approval from both CTO and QA before merging (#98, #76)
+- **ExemptionManager test suite**: Full coverage of annotation-based exemption flows, exemption creation, and inline feedback (#82)
+- **RBAC preflight check**: `deploy-e2e-headlamp.sh` now verifies runner RBAC before attempting E2E deploy (#80)
+
+### Fixed
+- **E2E infrastructure overhaul**: Replaced Dockerfile.e2e with ConfigMap volume mount for plugin loading; tests now run in the `privilegedescalation-dev` namespace (#73, #89, #94)
+- **E2E token auth**: Workflow uses GitHub App token auth and handles the `/token` redirect correctly (#97)
+- **E2E HTTP readiness**: `deploy-e2e-headlamp.sh` waits for HTTP reachability after rollout before running tests (#104)
+- **E2E runner label**: Updated to `runners-privilegedescalation` for self-hosted ARC runners (#71)
+- **Direct devDependencies**: Added `typescript`, `eslint`, `prettier`, and `@headlamp-k8s/eslint-config` as explicit direct devDependencies to prevent phantom-dep failures in clean installs (#95, #102)
+
+### Changed
+- **pnpm version pinned**: `packageManager` field in `package.json` pins the pnpm version used in CI (#103)
+- **GitHub Actions SHA pinning**: Renovate `pinDigests` enabled to SHA-pin all GitHub Actions (#105)
+- **ArtifactHub metadata polish**: Improved `install` instructions and `changes` section formatting (#82)

 ## RBAC / Security Setup
 
 The plugin fetches audit data through the Kubernetes API server's **service proxy** sub-resource. The identity making the request (Headlamp's service account, or the user's own token in token-auth mode) must be granted:

+# PRI-324 Spec: Make E2E Workflow Self-Sufficient with RBAC
+
+## Context
+
+PR #123 introduced an RBAC pre-flight check to the E2E workflow. QA (Nancy, acting as QA) verified the "fails fast without RBAC" path works, but found that the "with RBAC passes" path had no green CI evidence — the workflow did not apply RBAC before the pre-flight check.
+
+PR #131 attempted to fix this by adding `kubectl apply` steps and extending the CI runner RBAC, but its merge commit (739db6fe) was reverted by the next commit on main (aa1db921) due to a vulnerability fix PR (#128).
+
+The current E2E workflow on `main` lacks the RBAC apply steps and CI runner permissions needed to make the pre-flight check meaningful.
+
+## Required Changes
+
+### 1. `.github/workflows/e2e.yaml`
+
+Add between the "Setup kubectl" and "Install dependencies" steps:
+
+```yaml
+      - name: Apply RBAC for E2E pipeline
+        run: |
+          set -x
+          kubectl apply -f deployment/e2e-ci-runner-rbac.yaml --dry-run=server 2>&1 || true
+          kubectl apply -f deployment/e2e-ci-runner-rbac.yaml 2>&1
+          echo "exit code: $?"
+          echo "Waiting for RBAC propagation..."
+          sleep 5
+          echo "Verifying CI runner permissions..."
+          kubectl auth can-i create roles -n headlamp-dev --as="system:serviceaccount:arc-runners:runners-privilegedescalation-gha-rs-no-permission" 2>&1 || { echo "::error::CI runner still lacks roles permission after propagation wait"; exit 1; }
+          set +x
+
+      - name: Apply Polaris dashboard RBAC
+        run: kubectl apply -f deployment/polaris-rbac.yaml
+
+      - name: RBAC pre-flight check
+        run: |
+          echo "Checking RBAC resources..."
+          MISSING=0
+          kubectl get role polaris-dashboard-proxy-reader -n polaris -o name >/dev/null 2>&1 || MISSING=1
+          kubectl get rolebinding polaris-dashboard-proxy-reader -n polaris -o name >/dev/null 2>&1 || MISSING=1
+          kubectl auth can-i delete configmaps -n "$E2E_NAMESPACE" --quiet 2>/dev/null || MISSING=1
+          if [ "$MISSING" -eq 0 ]; then
+            echo "RBAC pre-flight check passed."
+          else
+            echo "::error::RBAC pre-flight check failed. Missing required permissions."
+            exit 1
+          fi
+```
+
+### 2. `deployment/e2e-ci-runner-rbac.yaml`
+
+Add a new Role + RoleBinding for the `polaris` namespace (from PR #131):
+
+```yaml
+---
+apiVersion: rbac.authorization.k8s.io/v1
+kind: Role
+metadata:
+  name: e2e-ci-runner-polaris
+  namespace: polaris
+rules:
+  - apiGroups: ["rbac.authorization.k8s.io"]
+    resources: ["roles", "rolebindings"]
+    verbs: ["get", "list", "create", "update", "patch", "delete"]
+---
+apiVersion: rbac.authorization.k8s.io/v1
+kind: RoleBinding
+metadata:
+  name: e2e-ci-runner-polaris
+  namespace: polaris
+subjects:
+  - kind: ServiceAccount
+    name: runners-privilegedescalation-gha-rs-no-permission
+    namespace: arc-runners
+roleRef:
+  kind: Role
+  name: e2e-ci-runner-polaris
+  apiGroup: rbac.authorization.k8s.io
+```
+
+And add to the existing `e2e-ci-runner` Role in the `headlamp-dev` namespace:
+```yaml
+  # Apply Polaris dashboard RBAC in the polaris namespace
+  - apiGroups: ["rbac.authorization.k8s.io"]
+    resources: ["roles", "rolebindings"]
+    verbs: ["get", "list", "create", "update", "patch", "delete"]
+```
+
+## Acceptance Criteria
+
+- [ ] Workflow applies `deployment/e2e-ci-runner-rbac.yaml` before the pre-flight check
+- [ ] Workflow applies `deployment/polaris-rbac.yaml` before the pre-flight check
+- [ ] CI runner has RBAC to apply the manifests (added via new Role+RoleBinding in polaris namespace)
+- [ ] E2E pipeline passes on the PR branch (proof of green path)
+- [ ] `kubectl get … --quiet` flag removed (QA nit)
+- [ ] `MISSING_ROLE`/`MISSING_ROLEBINDING` collapsed to single `MISSING` flag (QA nit)
+
+## Definition of Done
+
+PR #123 QA changes-requested are addressed: the workflow is self-sufficient (applies its own RBAC), the green path is demonstrated, and QA review is re-requested.

+  ## Installation
+
+  ### Prerequisites
+
+  1. [Headlamp](https://headlamp.dev) v0.26.0 or later
+  2. [Fairwinds Polaris](https://polaris.docs.fairwinds.com/) installed and the dashboard running in your cluster
+
+  ### Install via Headlamp Plugin Catalog
+
+  1. Open Headlamp and navigate to **Settings → Plugin Catalog**
+  2. Search for **"Polaris"**
+  3. Click **Install** and restart Headlamp when prompted
+
+  The plugin is sourced directly from [ArtifactHub](https://artifacthub.io/packages/headlamp/headlamp/headlamp-polaris).
+
+  ## Usage
+
+  After installation, the Polaris plugin adds:
+  - A **cluster score badge** in the Headlamp app bar
+  - A **Polaris** section in the sidebar with the full dashboard and namespace drill-downs
+  - An **inline audit panel** on Deployment, StatefulSet, DaemonSet, Job, and CronJob detail pages
+
+  For more information, see the [README](https://github.com/privilegedescalation/headlamp-polaris-plugin/blob/main/README.md).

+The E2E workflow deploys a **dedicated Headlamp instance** for each test run:

-- `AUTHENTIK_USERNAME` + `AUTHENTIK_PASSWORD` (for OIDC auth)

+1. Build plugin (`npm run build`)
+2. Create ConfigMap from `dist/` output (`scripts/deploy-e2e-headlamp.sh`)
+3. Deploy stock Headlamp via Helm with ConfigMap volume mount
+4. Run Playwright tests against the E2E instance
+5. Tear down (`scripts/teardown-e2e-headlamp.sh`)
 
-### Workflow Overview
+No custom Docker images, no PVCs, no kubectl exec/cp, no patching of existing deployments. The plugin is mounted from a ConfigMap into the stock Headlamp image.
 
-1. Checkout code
-2. Setup Node.js 20 with npm cache
-3. Install dependencies (`npm ci`)
-4. Install Playwright browsers (`chromium` only)
-5. Run auth setup (creates session in `e2e/.auth/state.json`)
