 **Gotchas:**
 
-- **Pinned to v1.28.0:** v2.x has a 135% memory regression ([#462](https://github.com/kiwigrid/k8s-sidecar/issues/462)) and `readOnlyRootFilesystem` crashloop ([#3936](https://github.com/grafana/helm-charts/issues/3936)). Upgrade separately after upstream fixes land.
 - **UID 65534:** Matches upstream's `nobody` user convention for non-root execution.
 - **Forge mirror name:** `mirrors/kiwigrid-grafana-sidecar` (not `k8s-sidecar`).
+- **Health endpoint:** 2.x exposes `/healthz` on port 8080 (liveness + readiness probes configured in deployment).
