Complete review of Spacelift's Infrastructure as Code platform. Testing GitLab integration, policy enforcement with Rego, drift detection, and worker pool configuration. Real-world evaluation for DevOps teams considering Spacelift for Terraform management.

I test the complete workflow: GitLab webhook setup, VCS integration, push policies with Open Policy Agent, policy simulator, audit trails, environment variables, private worker pools, CSR generation, auto-deployment, scheduled drift detection, and enterprise features.

Features tested:
🔧 GitLab Integration & Webhook Setup
📋 Policy as Code with Rego
🔍 Drift Detection & Remediation
⚙️ Worker Pool Configuration
🔐 Enterprise Security & Audit Trails
🚀 Auto-deployment Configuration
