Tool that retrieves and manages SVIDs on behalf of a workload via the SPIFFE Workload API.
The SPIFFE Helper is a utility for fetching X.509 SVID certificates and JWT SVIDs from the SPIFFE Workload API, and for keeping them refreshed on disk before they expire. It acts as a sidecar for workloads that cannot speak the Workload API directly, writing certificate and key files to a shared volume and optionally signaling or restarting the target process on renewal. SPIFFE Helper is part of the SPIFFE and SPIRE ecosystem, a set of APIs and tooling for establishing trust between software systems across heterogeneous environments.
