Success Criteria Verification

From ROADMAP.md Phase 7 success criteria:

  1. ArgoCD server is running and accessible at argocd.kube2.tricnet.de

    • ✓ VERIFIED: ArgoCD server pod running, UI returns HTTP 200
  2. TaskPlanner Application shows "Synced" status in ArgoCD UI

    • ✓ VERIFIED: kubectl shows status: Synced, revision matches Git HEAD (175930c)
  3. Pushing a change to helm/taskplaner/values.yaml triggers automatic deployment within 3 minutes

    • ✓ VERIFIED: Test commit 175930c deployed in 137 seconds (2 min 17 sec) - well within 3-minute threshold
  4. Manually deleting a pod results in ArgoCD restoring it to match Git state

    • ✓ VERIFIED: selfHeal: true enabled in syncPolicy, pod deletion test completed successfully per 07-02-SUMMARY.md
  5. ArgoCD UI shows deployment history with sync status for each revision

    • ✓ VERIFIED: History shows multiple revisions (eff251c, 175930c) with deployment timestamps

Success Criteria: 5/5 met

Verification Details

Level 1: Existence Checks

All required artifacts exist:

  • Git repository files: application.yaml, repo-secret.yaml, values.yaml
  • Cluster resources: taskplaner-repo secret, taskplaner Application, pod, ingress
  • Infrastructure: ArgoCD server, Gitea service

Level 2: Substantive Checks

Artifacts are not stubs:

  • argocd/application.yaml: 44 lines, complete Application spec with helm parameters
  • helm/taskplaner/values.yaml: 121 lines, production configuration with all sections
  • argocd/repo-secret.yaml: 23 lines, documentation file (actual secret in cluster)
  • Application resource: generation 87 (actively managed), valid sync state
  • Pod: Running 1/1, age 4h29m (stable deployment)

No stub patterns detected:

  • No TODO/FIXME/placeholder comments in critical files
  • No empty returns or console.log-only implementations
  • All components have real implementations

Level 3: Wiring Checks

Complete GitOps workflow verified:

  1. Git → ArgoCD: Application references correct repository URL, secret provides credentials
  2. ArgoCD → Cluster: Application synced, resources deployed to default namespace
  3. Helm → Pod: Values propagate to pod annotations (gitops-test annotation confirmed)
  4. Auto-sync: 137-second response time from commit to deployment
  5. Self-heal: selfHeal: true in syncPolicy, restoration test passed
  6. Ingress → App: Both ArgoCD UI and TaskPlanner accessible via Traefik

Auto-Sync Timing Analysis

Self-Heal Verification

Evidence from plan execution:

  • Plan 07-02 Task 2 completed: "Pod deletion triggered restore, ArgoCD shows Synced + Healthy status"
  • syncPolicy.automated.selfHeal: true confirmed in Application spec
  • ArgoCD maintains Synced status after pod deletion (per SUMMARY)
  • User checkpoint approved: "ArgoCD shows TaskPlanner as Synced, app accessible"

Summary

Phase 7 goal FULLY ACHIEVED: Deployments are fully automated via Git.

What works:

  1. Git push triggers automatic deployment (verified with 137-second sync)
  2. Manual changes self-heal (selfHeal enabled, tested successfully)
  3. ArgoCD UI accessible and shows deployment history
  4. Complete GitOps workflow operational

Known issues (non-blocking):

  • ArgoCD health status shows "Progressing" instead of "Healthy" (display issue, pod is actually healthy per health endpoint)
  • Gitea Actions runner not deployed (CI builds currently manual, doesn't affect GitOps functionality)

Ready for next phase: YES - Phase 8 (Observability Stack) can proceed to add metrics/logs to GitOps-managed deployment.
