Review comments at @cmd/crossplane/simulate/simulate.go:
- Around line 119-202: Remove the Docker availability check from `Run` so
simulation can continue when Docker is unavailable; let
`diffserver.Manager.Start` report providers it cannot start as skipped and
proceed with approximate results.
Review comments at @design/one-pager-cli-simulate.md:
- Around line 116-118: Rewrap the paragraph around the create-plan wording so
line 118 is no more than 100 columns; preserve the existing text and meaning.
Use the paragraph beginning “exists, sends the desired resource” to locate the
change.
Review comments at @internal/terminal/spinner.go:
- Around line 57-63: Move interruptKey out of spinner.go into platform-specific
spinner_unix.go and spinner_windows.go files with appropriate build tags,
keeping the same function signature. Preserve the existing SIGINT behavior on
Unix; implement a Windows-compatible cancellation path that still cancels the
command and runs cleanup.

Overall, lgtm for an alpha. I will start building project simulate on top of this + diff, and we can iron out any bugs from there.

A few suggestions, but overall I agree with @jcogilvie - we can iterate after this is released as alpha.

Description of your changes
Implements
crossplane resource simulateper the accepted design(design/one-pager-cli-simulate.md): given YAML for one or more managed resources (-f), preview what applying them would do, provider-computed, end to end.For each input resource the CLI fetches the live MR from the current kubeconfig context, runs the providers own package image locally as a diff server (the gRPC
PlanServiceupjet providers now serve viainternal diff-server,merged in crossplane/upjet#765, crossplane/upjet#769, crossplane/upjet#778), and renders the providers verdict: create, update, no-op or the replace nobody spotted in review, with the unsynced-until-replaced warning. Replaces are counted separately in the summary and never presented as destroy-and-recreate.
Resources without a diff server (no
DiffServercapability, no route, or the server refuses the resource) degrade to an honest client-side diff marked[?]with the approximate warning and nothing fails the run, nothing silently dropsout.
The design one-pager predated the merged upjet protocol
internal diff-serverand the package capability isDiffServer(spec.capabilities); the gRPC service remainsPlanService(proto/diff/v1alpha1).GetInfowas dropped: routing is built client-side from the CRDs inside each provider package, by group and kind, and the capability is checked before any container starts.Planrequest.FAILED_PRECONDITION/DIFF_COMPUTATION_NOT_SUPPORTEDmapping to the[?]fallback.kubernetes_object_storecarries the referenced ProviderConfig, fetched with the user's own kubeconfig and RBAC (the server is offline and sees only what travels in the request; credentials Secrets deliberately stay out today and the server plans with placeholder, but we need this as some providers e.g. gcp uses fields like projectIds).Groundwork for project simulate (#367)
This PR deliberately builds the shared pieces
project simulatemust reuse, so the two commands converge on one implementation and we need to sync in a followup PR:internal/planthe typed per-resource result (actions, field changes with sensitive/known-after-apply/unresolved markers, replace paths), the diff server client, and the output renderers (-o plan|json|yaml, versioned JSON/YAML envelope with a top-levelerroredgate for CI).internal/plan.Fallbackthe client-side diff ([?]path). Schema-less by design; expected to be subsumed by crossplane-diff's calculator when its machinery moves in with Addcrossplane project simulate#367.-o diffis intentionally not implemented here: crossplane-diff renders real full-manifest unified diffs today, and that renderer is what-o diffshould become, not a lower-fidelity imitation.Implementation notes
