77-89: Consider implementing a gradual migration strategyTo safely migrate to the new naming convention, consider:
- Implementing a transition period where both old and new service account names are supported
- Using Terraform workspaces or feature flags to gradually roll out changes
- Adding monitoring for workload identity authentication failures during migration
Example approach:
- Add a new variable like
enable_new_sa_format = true- Use conditional expressions to support both formats during transition
- Monitor and gradually enable the new format per namespace

77-77: LGTM! The display name change improves clarity.The updated display name follows GCP naming conventions and provides better context by explicitly mentioning "service account".
Let's verify if this naming convention is consistently applied across other service accounts:
✅ Verification successful
The previous ast-grep pattern might have failed due to syntax. Let's use ripgrep to find all service account display names to verify the naming consistency.
Display name format is inconsistent across service accounts
The search revealed two different display name formats for service accounts:
"Kubernetes ${each.key} namespace workload identity service account"in main.tf"Kubernetes minimum privilege service account for: ${local.name}"in regional/main.tfWhile both formats are descriptive, they use different patterns:
- One mentions "namespace workload identity"
- The other mentions "minimum privilege"
Since these service accounts serve different purposes (workload identity vs. operations), the different naming patterns are acceptable and appropriate for their specific use cases.
🏁 Scripts executed
The following scripts were executed for the analysis:
Script:
#!/bin/bash # Check for consistency in service account display names ast-grep --pattern 'display_name = "Kubernetes $_ namespace'Length of output: 62
Script:
#!/bin/bash # Let's try a more comprehensive search for service account display names rg "display_name.*service account" -A 2 -B 2Length of output: 577
87-87:⚠️ Potential issue
⚠️ Breaking Change: Service Account Name Format UpdatedThe modification to the Kubernetes ServiceAccount name format is a breaking change that requires careful migration:
- Old format:
workload-identity- New format:
${each.key}-workload-identity-saThis change will break existing workload identity bindings until corresponding Kubernetes ServiceAccounts are updated.
Required actions:
- Update all Kubernetes ServiceAccount manifests to use the new naming format
- Plan for a coordinated deployment to minimize disruption
- Verify no existing workloads are affected
Let's verify the impact:
