**Problem:** PR operator-framework#3660 introduced cert-manager as a hard dependency for OLM deployments, causing installation failures when cert-manager CRDs are not present: error getting resource "olm/olm-cert" with GVK "cert-manager.io/v1, Kind=Certificate": no matches for kind "Certificate" in version "cert-manager.io/v1" This is a breaking change for existing users who don't have cert-manager installed. **Solution:** Make secured metrics endpoints an opt-in feature by setting `certManager.enabled: false` by default in Helm values. Users who want authenticated metrics must explicitly enable cert-manager. **Changes:** - Set `certManager.enabled: false` in `deploy/chart/values.yaml` - Remove `cert-manager-install` dependency from `make run-local` - Remove `--set certManager.enabled=true` override from `make deploy` - Remove automatic cert-manager cleanup from `make undeploy` **Behavior:** - Default (cert-manager disabled): HTTP metrics on port 8080, no authentication - Opt-in (`certManager.enabled: true`): HTTPS metrics on port 8443 with authentication/authorization Fixes the breaking change introduced in operator-framework#3660 while preserving the secured metrics feature for users who want it.

Problem:
PR #3660 introduced cert-manager as a hard dependency for OLM deployments, causing installation failures when cert-manager CRDs are not present:
error getting resource "olm/olm-cert" with GVK "cert-manager.io/v1, Kind=Certificate": no matches for kind "Certificate" in version "cert-manager.io/v1"
This is a breaking change for existing users who don't have cert-manager installed.
Solution:
Make secured metrics endpoints an opt-in feature by setting
certManager.enabled: falseby default in Helm values. Users who want authenticated metrics must explicitly enable cert-manager.Changes:
