LGTM
Looks kind of perfect, except that I don't see the set and string output types for the Flink processor (and I don't find them in the 1.18.0 release notes either), so perhaps they should be added here.
| - **Redis sorted set outputs for the Flink processor**: `redis.write` outputs can use `data_type: sorted_set` with `args.member` and `args.score` to emit `ZADD` and `ZREM` commands. | ||
| - **Redis stream outputs for the Flink processor**: `redis.write` outputs can use `data_type: stream` to append each change event to a target stream with `XADD`. |

I don't see set and string, have they been released with a previous version? If not, they should be added.

| ### Compatibility Notes | ||
|
|
||
| - **Unified JSON merge behavior for the Flink processor**: JSON merge behavior is now the same for every supported target Redis version. Null leaf values are deleted for targets without native `JSON.MERGE` support, matching targets that support the command. This differs from the classic processor fallback behavior, which writes JSON nulls. |

Null leaf values are deleted instead of written as JSON nulls in all cases. This differs from the classic processor fallback behavior, which writes JSON nulls. |
When reading this, I had a little trouble parsing what the exact relation to native json merge was. I find the suggestion above clearer, wdyt?

Nothing critical, but there seems to be a strange hyphen epidemic going on here! Also, I've updated the config to use the new version. Otherwise, LGTM and approved.

| - **Detailed source connection errors**: Source database connection failures returned by `GET /api/v2/pipelines/{name}/source-schemas/{source}` now identify the underlying cause instead of returning a generic error. | ||
| - **Merged Flink processor status**: Pipeline status and metric collection endpoints now report the Flink JobManager and TaskManager as one `flink-processor` component, with the status reflecting the least healthy part. | ||
| - **Secret updates reflected in pipeline status**: After a source or target database secret changes, the pipeline remains not current and non-terminal until all consuming components have restarted with the new secret. |

Seems a bit sharper.

| ### Bug Fixes | ||
|
|
||
| - Support-package logs now retain structured key-value parameters, including operator reconciliation context. |

It seems to have got a bit carried away with all these hyphens!
| - Support-package logs now retain structured key-value parameters, including operator reconciliation context. | |
| - Support package logs now retain structured key-value parameters, including operator reconciliation context. |
| - Nested JSON outputs now apply MongoDB `$unset` removals during updates instead of leaving stale fields in the parent JSON document. | ||
| - Rotating target database passwords or TLS certificates no longer restarts the RDI API. | ||
| - Pipeline status no longer remains on a completed user-requested operation when a later runtime issue moves the pipeline to `pending`. | ||
| - Deployments no longer briefly report secret-provider configuration errors while the Secrets Store CSI driver mounts volumes. Mount warnings are reported only when the failure persists for at least 30 seconds. |

| - Source table and column names containing Java regular-expression characters are now escaped correctly during schema introspection. | ||
| - Flink processor JSON writes to a key holding a non-JSON value are now rejected to the dead-letter queue instead of leaving the batch pending. |

| ### New Features | ||
|
|
||
| - **New `redis-di` CLI**: The `redis-di` command-line tool has been rewritten in Go as a thin client for the RDI REST API. It works across VM, Kubernetes (Helm), and Redis Cloud installations and supports multiple pipelines and both processor types. It provides create, read, update, and delete operations for pipelines and secrets; commands for dead-letter queues, jobs, and metric collections; and table, JSON, or YAML output. Authentication options include user and password credentials, Redis Cloud account and user keys, or no credentials when API authentication is disabled. Self-contained binaries are available for Linux, macOS, and Windows, and Linux binaries are included in the VM installer. |

| - **Pipeline metadata revision and tags**: Pipeline `config.metadata` now accepts an optional non-negative `revision` and up to 50 unique slug-like `tags`, each up to 50 characters long. | ||
| - **Redis sorted set outputs for the Flink processor**: `redis.write` outputs can use `data_type: sorted_set` with `args.member` and `args.score` to emit `ZADD` and `ZREM` commands. | ||
| - **Redis stream outputs for the Flink processor**: `redis.write` outputs can use `data_type: stream` to append each change event to a target stream with `XADD`. | ||
| - **Flink processor support in offline VM installations**: The offline VM installation package now includes the Flink processor and metrics aggregator images. The installer disk-space requirement has increased to account for the additional images. |
