Consul CI breaks on jq 1.8 as Ubuntu 26.04 runners arrive
By RepoJournal · Filed · About HashiCorp · Composed from the cited sources · methodology
Consul's Envoy integration matrix silently produced zero jobs after Ubuntu 26.04 runners shipped jq 1.8 and dropped the undocumented _nwise helper, while the docs repos spent the day on Vault agentic auth, Consul AI observability, and an automated public-private sync.
ci: split test matrices without jq's removed _nwise helper (#24106) hashicorp/consul
GitHub's ubuntu-latest runners are moving to Ubuntu 26.04, which ships jq 1.8 and no longer defines _nwise, so "Generate Envoy Job Matrix" failed with "_nwise/1 is not defined". Because the step never set pipefail it exited 0 and wrote an empty matrix, meaning envoy-integration-test has been passing without creating any jobs; the fix swaps _nwise for equivalent array slicing.
Vault: Agentic IAM Auth0 updates hashicorp/web-unified-docs
The Vault agentic IAM guide for Auth0 gets a substantial rework based on developer feedback: new steps for creating the agent application, revised access and user creation flows, token exchange, minted agent and user token examples, and requesting a delegated token with RAR claims. Anyone following the existing walkthrough will find the sequence has moved under them.
