GitOps verification: Test auto-sync with harmless annotation changes
Self-heal verification: Delete pod, confirm ArgoCD restores state
created modified
helm/taskplaner/values.yaml
Use pod annotation for sync testing: Non-destructive change that propagates to running pod
ArgoCD health 'Progressing' is display issue: App functional despite UI status
GitOps testing: Push annotation change, wait for sync, verify pod metadata
Self-heal testing: Delete pod, confirm restoration, verify Synced status

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)
