NGINX Gateway Fabric control plane: the F5/NGINX Gateway API implementation. Watches GatewayClass, Gateway, HTTPRoute and its own gateway.nginx.org policy CRDs, provisions an nginx Deployment per Gateway, and pushes generated config to the nginx-agent inside it over gRPC. One binary covers three roles the chart uses -- controller, generate-certs, and the initialize step that runs as the init container of every data-plane pod. Pairs with the nginx-gateway-fabric-nginx data plane, which it version-locks to itself.

Transparency
Every image carries its SBOM and provenance as attestations on the same digest, publicly verifiable with the commands above (they check the package and the Sigstore transparency log, Rekor).
