# Mock Overlay (Dev Only)

Purpose: let deployment tasks progress with placeholder digests until real releases land.

Use:
```bash
helm template mock ./deploy/helm/stellaops -f deploy/helm/stellaops/values-mock.yaml
```

Contents:
- Mock deployments for orchestrator, policy-registry, packs-registry, task-runner, VEX Lens, issuer-directory, findings-ledger, vuln-explorer-api.
- Image pins pulled from `deploy/releases/2025.09-mock-dev.yaml`.

Notes:
- Annotated with `stellaops.dev/mock: "true"` to discourage production use.
- Swap to real values once official digests publish; keep mock overlay gated behind `mock.enabled`.
