See observation health. Full capture: Marolum 0.21.1 Community, Marolum Light, observing synthetic Pulumi state on a local S3-compatible service. One fixture stack is deliberately unreadable, so the backend shows as partial. These are observation states, not Connection diagnostics or a cloud or VMware deployment.

What Marolum does

Inspect state

Browse backends, stacks, resources, and redacted outputs in one place.

Retain evidence

Keep operation timelines, comparisons, and exports after source records are pruned.

Review as a team

Share a browser view without sharing raw state files or storage credentials.

Stay read-only

No apply, destroy, import, or refresh. Your deployment tools keep the keys.

Security at its core

Read-only by design

Scope backend credentials to list and read. The observer cannot apply, destroy, import, refresh, or write your state.

Scoped access

Browser roles and evidence-write tokens have separate authority. Scope integration tokens to the stacks they may report on, and revoke them when access is no longer needed.

Secrets stay opaque

Engine-marked secrets stay opaque. Additional capture is opt-in with separate access and retention rules. Unmarked sensitive values still require your care.

Verifiable releases

Published image digests, signatures, SBOMs, and provenance let you verify the release. You control deployment, TLS, storage encryption, and backups.

Security fixes and baseline protections are shared across editions. Read the security model and its limits.

Roadmap

  • Next: Simpler setup, recovery guidance, and further backend validation.
  • Future: A separate, opt-in control-plane module with its own execution credentials. Not available today. The core stays read-only; buying a license will not enable execution.
