docs: daily update 2026-08-10 (release v4.196.3)

[deco-cms]

Summary

Daily docs review for release v4.196.3 (previous: v4.196.2), covering the commit range v4.196.2...v4.196.3.

Because 36 docs/auto-update-* PRs are already open (oldest since 2026-07-30, most recent #5852 / docs/auto-update-2026-08-07-release-4.193.0), this PR is branched from that PR's HEAD instead of main, per the chaining rule. This PR depends on #5852 and everything stacked before it — please merge the backlog in order, oldest first, before this one.

Commits reviewed (v4.196.2...v4.196.3)

Warranted a docs change:

• 786850f78 feat(sandbox): reimplement the L2 golden tier in the Go daemon (feat(sandbox): reimplement the L2 golden tier in the Go daemon #5824)
• 41c90379e feat(sandbox): node-level uploader that fills the shared golden store (feat(sandbox): node-level uploader that fills the shared golden store #5843)

Reviewed and skipped:

• 5f80da518 fix(reports): keep polling when the run finishes before deck assembly (fix(reports): keep polling when the run finishes before deck assembly #5873) — internal bugfix to the marketing "reports" scan tool's polling logic; not part of the Studio product docs surface, no new config or user-facing behavior for Studio users.
• 6a5ec8059, a7440d57a, 47e45ca71 — [release]: bump changed workspace versions (bot commits).
• 32122bbb6 — [chore]: bump homebrew cask to 4.196.2 (bot/version bump only).

Doc files changed

• studio/self-hosting/deploy/kubernetes.mdx (en + pt-br): documented the new opt-in goldenUploader Helm value in the sandbox-env chart — a DaemonSet that publishes each node's local dependency-cache "goldens" into a shared, cross-node store (the L2 tier, reimplemented in the Go daemon in this range). Added:

  • A new "Shared dependency cache (golden uploader)" subsection under Sandbox configuration, with the required companion settings (depsCache.enabled, depsCache.remote.enabled) and the pvcName caveat for dynamic StorageClasses.
  • A row for goldenUploader.enabled in the Main sandbox values table.

  The feature is additive and defaults to false, so no other self-hosting instructions changed.

Consistency notes

• The Main sandbox values table's image.repository / image.tag default (1.17.8) is already stale relative to the chart's current default in values.yaml (now 1.46.0 as of this release) — pre-existing drift, unrelated to this range, flagged for a separate cleanup rather than fixed here to keep this PR's scope tight.
• architecture.mdx and docker-compose.mdx were checked for golden/dependency-cache mentions — neither documents cache internals or would contradict this change (Docker Compose explicitly has no sandbox support), so no edits made there.

Translation

pt-br file was translated in full for the new subsection and table row; product terms (golden, DaemonSet, PV/PVC, StorageClass, config keys) kept in English per convention.

Summary by cubic

Docs update for v4.196.3: added Kubernetes self-hosting guidance for the opt-in goldenUploader DaemonSet that publishes node-local dependency “goldens” to a shared cross-node store. Explains how to enable it and the required settings; default is off, so existing installs are unchanged.

• New Features
  • Kubernetes self-hosting guide (en and pt-br): new “Shared dependency cache (golden uploader)” subsection with example YAML, plus a goldenUploader.enabled row in the Main sandbox values table.
  • Enablement requires depsCache.enabled, depsCache.remote.enabled, and a writable volume; use the chart PV/PVC or set goldenUploader.pvcName when depsCache.remote.storageClassName is set.
  • Sandboxes mount the shared store read-only; uploads are handled by the DaemonSet; goldens are scoped per org.
