vumas3r f3d0e536b6 Exam simulator for CKA, CKAD and CKS with per-task hosts and a remote desktop
kubestronaut-sim runs each exam task on a host of its own - a kind (kubeadm)
cluster in rootless podman, or a QEMU/KVM Ubuntu VM for the CKS tasks that
need their own kernel (Falco, AppArmor) - and puts a browser desktop in front
of them, the way killer.sh and sailor.sh do.

- ksim, sim/: the engine (sessions, drills, study mode, grading, coverage,
  audit), host and VM lifecycle, the desktop
- images/: exam host images (common, CKS variant with its tools, VM guest)
- cka/ (131 tasks), ckad/ (105), cks/ (110): task banks, curricula with
  study notes, reference solutions and scripted solutions

Every domain of every track has at least 17 pool tasks. `./ksim audit` proves
a task three ways: it seeds cleanly on its own host, scores nothing before
anyone has worked on it, and reaches full marks when its scripted solution is
run on the host as `candidate`. All 346 tasks pass (CKA audited 2026-10-13,
CKAD and CKS 2026-10-12).

# The exam's remote desktop: XFCE with a terminal and Firefox, served to the browser over noVNC.
# It is the "base" machine of a session - no kubeconfig here; every task says which host to ssh to.
