kubernetes.deployment.scale

Set the replica count on a Deployment (scale subresource)

Scales a Deployment in the given namespace by patching its scale subresource. Captures the previous replica count before patching so callers can restore it if needed.

Inputs:

• connection_uuid: Cloud connection UUID (required)
• namespace: Target namespace (required)
• name: Deployment name (required)
• replicas: Desired replica count; must be >= 0 (required)

Outputs:

• previous_replicas: Replica count observed before the patch
• replicas: Replica count requested (echoed from input)

Plugin required: context.get_plugin("connection").kubernetes_runner_clients(connection_uuid, organization_uuid) must expose apps_v1 with read_namespaced_deployment_scale and patch_namespaced_deployment_scale.
