+# Phase 7 Plan 02: GitOps Verification Summary
+
+**Verified GitOps workflow: auto-sync triggers within 2 minutes on push, self-heal restores deleted pods, ArgoCD maintains Synced status**
+
+## Performance
+
+- **Duration:** 5 min (verification tasks + human checkpoint)
+- **Started:** 2026-02-03T14:30:00Z
+- **Completed:** 2026-02-03T14:35:00Z
+- **Tasks:** 3 (2 auto + 1 checkpoint)
+- **Files modified:** 1
+
+## Accomplishments
+- Auto-sync verified: Git push triggered ArgoCD sync within ~2 minutes
+- Self-heal verified: Pod deletion restored automatically, ArgoCD remained Synced
+- Human verification: ArgoCD UI shows TaskPlanner as Synced, app accessible at https://task.kube2.tricnet.de
+- All GITOPS requirements from ROADMAP.md satisfied
+
+## Task Commits
+
+Each task was committed atomically:
+
+1. **Task 1: Test auto-sync by pushing a helm change** - `175930c` (test)
+2. **Task 2: Test self-heal by deleting a pod** - No commit (no files changed, verification only)
+3. **Task 3: Checkpoint - Human verification** - Approved (checkpoint, no commit)
+
+## Files Created/Modified
+- `helm/taskplaner/values.yaml` - Added gitops-test annotation to verify sync propagation
+
+## Decisions Made
+- Used pod annotation change for sync testing (harmless, visible in pod metadata)
+- Accepted ArgoCD "Progressing" health status as display issue (pod healthy, app functional)
+
+## Deviations from Plan
+
+None - plan executed exactly as written.
+
+## Issues Encountered
+- ArgoCD health shows "Progressing" instead of "Healthy" despite pod running and health endpoint working
+- This is a known display issue, not a functional problem
+- All GitOps functionality (sync, self-heal) works correctly
+
+## User Setup Required
+
+None - GitOps verification is complete. No additional configuration needed.
+
+## Next Phase Readiness
+- Phase 7 (GitOps Foundation) complete
+- ArgoCD manages TaskPlanner deployment via GitOps
+- Auto-sync and self-heal verified working
+- Ready for Phase 8 (Logging) - can add log collection for ArgoCD sync events
+- Pending: Gitea Actions runner deployment for automatic CI builds (currently building manually)
