# Operator Permission Advisor

[![Go Report](https://goreportcard.com/badge/github.com/IBM/operator-permission-advisor)](https://goreportcard.com/report/github.com/IBM/operator-permission-advisor)

Operator Permissions Advisor is a CLI tool that will take a catalog image and statically parse it to determine what permissions an Operator will request of OLM during an install.  The permissions are aggregated from the following sources:

1. The CSV
2. The `manifests` directory of each bundle in the desired install channel

This tool uses the standardized operator-registry `actions` library github.com/operator-framework/operator-registry/alpha/action to query the catalog.
