      As evergreen already makes use of JCasC, I think the logical consequence would be to also add the job-dsl-plugin.

      I would even go further and think evergreen should provide an initial seed job out of the box - this job could then be adapted by evergreen users to setup there own stuff.

      Thinking about this: are there any concepts like evergreen setup extensions planned?

          I definitely agree with that one, and I was not later than yesterday thinking about using Job DSL to seed and version my instance.

          AFAIK, CasC does not provide handling for jobs (and was even using job-dsl for it too some time ago).

          IIRC, though, there are a few challenges with security using Job DSL. I need to understand them better before potentially acting here.

          I'm on the fence about it, since we're not using Job DSL in any consequential way right now. I would put this on hold until we adopt Job DSL ourselves for something like built in examples and have a clear and concise way for an Evergreen instance incorporate Job DSL
