variables.tf:6

• [nitpick] The variable name ordering deviates from the existing pattern (e.g., gitlab_agent_deploy_enabled may read more naturally and sort alphabetically with other inputs).

variable "gitlab_agent_enabled_deploy" {

main.tf:132

• Add or update tests (e.g., in a Terraform integration suite) to verify that when gitlab_agent_enabled_deploy is false, the Helm release resource is not created.

count            = var.gitlab_agent_enabled_deploy ? 1 : 0

README.md:60

• Consider adding a short usage example showing how to set gitlab_agent_enabled_deploy = false and what resources are created or skipped as a result.

| <a name="input_gitlab_agent_enabled_deploy"></a> [gitlab_agent_enabled_deploy](#input_gitlab_agent_enabled_deploy) | Whether to deploy the GitLab Agent components. If false, only creates the GitLab Agent token, Kubernetes namespace and secret without deploying the agent itself. | `bool` | `true` | no |

README.md:71

• Since the default Helm chart version was bumped from 2.11.0 to 2.13.0, add upgrade notes or call out potential breaking changes for users updating the module.

| <a name="input_helm_chart_version"></a> [helm_chart_version](#input_helm_chart_version) | The version of the gitlab-agent Helm chart. You can see the available versions at https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/charts/gitlab-agent/-/tags, or using the command `helm search repo gitlab/gitlab-agent -l` after adding the Gitlab Helm repository. | `string` | `"2.13.0"` | no |

⚡ Recommended focus areas for review Conditional Resource Deployment The use of the count meta-argument on the helm_release.this resource to conditionally deploy the GitLab Agent components based on the gitlab_agent_enabled_deploy variable should be validated to ensure it does not introduce unintended side effects, such as orphaned resources or state drift when toggling the variable. count = var.gitlab_agent_enabled_deploy ? 1 : 0 Variable Documentation and Defaults The new gitlab_agent_enabled_deploy variable is introduced with a default of true. Reviewers should ensure that this default and its documentation are consistent with the intended module behavior and that disabling deployment does not break other module outputs or dependencies. variable "gitlab_agent_enabled_deploy" { description = "Whether to deploy the GitLab Agent components. If false, only creates the GitLab Agent token, Kubernetes namespace and secret without deploying the agent itself." type = bool default = true }
