The test-infra automation pushed fresh builds of Boskos and staging images across GCR and Artifact Registry as CAPG hit OOM walls compiling google.golang.org/api.

The k8s-infra-ci-robot rolled forward Boskos aws-janitor images and test-infra krte images [1], part of the steady cadence keeping staging infrastructure current. Separately, CAPG builds started failing under memory pressure, forcing a bump from 4Gi to 8Gi hard limits [2] because the Go compiler was getting OOM-killed inside Docker-in-Docker when compiling google.golang.org/api/compute/v0.alpha. Over in test-infra, a kubekins-e2e-v2 migration for CAPI release branches had to be reverted [3] after the CAPI controller failed to come up in kind. Write throughput benchmarking landed with both a base test [4] and a matching optional presubmit job [5] to measure etcd performance under load. Documentation keeps flowing across the website desk, with CSI node-id annotations getting their first formal docs [6], localized content syncing across zh and zh-cn [7] [8] [9], and contributor preview docs updated for Korean [10]. Registry.k8s.io added Azure IP ranges for traffic analytics [11]. All activity tracked across 33 commits and 22 PRs this period.
