Create ibm.yml

[mo74m3ed]

Greptile Summary

Adds a master-branch GitHub Actions workflow intended to build a container, publish it to IBM Container Registry, and deploy it to IKS.

• Installs and authenticates the IBM Cloud CLI.
• Builds and pushes a commit-tagged image.
• Generates and applies Kubernetes deployment and load-balancer resources.
• The checked-in workflow remains nonfunctional because the repository has no Dockerfile and the IKS cluster value is still a template placeholder.

Confidence Score: 3/5

This PR is not safe to merge until the workflow has a buildable Docker context and a real IKS cluster target.

Every master push will invoke a Docker build without a Dockerfile, and any run that passes that stage will configure the literal example cluster identifier rather than an actual deployment target.

Security Review

The IBM Cloud API key is exposed at workflow scope to mutable and remotely downloaded executable dependencies. Scope the key to the authentication step and pin or integrity-check executable dependencies. How this was verified: The workflow-level secret is available to the checkout and installer steps before it is consumed for IBM Cloud authentication.

Important Files Changed

Filename	Overview
.github/workflows/ibm.yml	Adds the complete IBM deployment pipeline, but it cannot deploy as committed because its build input is absent and its target cluster remains a placeholder; credential scoping also needs hardening.

### Issue 1
.github/workflows/ibm.yml:56-58
**Docker build has no Dockerfile**

On every `master` push, this step builds the repository root without specifying another Dockerfile, but the repository contains no Dockerfile, causing the workflow to stop before publishing or deploying an image.

### Issue 2
.github/workflows/ibm.yml:23
**Placeholder cluster blocks deployment**

When the deployment step runs, it passes the literal template value `example-iks-cluster-name-or-id` to `ibmcloud ks cluster config`, causing cluster configuration to fail before the Kubernetes resources are applied.

### Issue 3
.github/workflows/ibm.yml:18
**Cloud key has workflow scope**

The IBM Cloud API key is exposed to every step, including the mutable checkout action and unverified installer and plugin code that execute before authentication; scope it to the authentication step to reduce the credential-exfiltration surface.

**How this was verified:** The workflow-level secret is available to the checkout and installer steps before it is consumed for IBM Cloud authentication.

Placeholder cluster blocks deployment

When the deployment step runs, it passes the literal template value example-iks-cluster-name-or-id to ibmcloud ks cluster config, causing cluster configuration to fail before the Kubernetes resources are applied.
