Research direction

Start by reviewing how xcetool currently generates a CWL specification for Application Package execution and how the alternative "xcube server" mode is represented. Decide whether the scope is Kubernetes manifest generation or documentation, then define a small supported deployment scenario and verify that the resulting manifests or documentation provide a usable starting point.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

For execution as an Application Package, xcetool can generate a CWL specification.

For the alternative "xcube server" execution mode, we have nothing equivalent. Of course there are more options here than for an EOAP. But one plausible deployment environment is Kubernetes, and while it's impossible to cover all K8s deployment scenarios, xcetool could generate some simple manifests as a starting point.

But it might also make more sense just to cover this in the documentation rather than auto-generating config snippets which will have to be customized anyway.
