ArgoCD

Use ArgoCD to sync the k8s/ directory from this repo.

Basic flow

1. Create an ArgoCD Application that targets the repo and path k8s/.
2. Set the destination namespace to a2w-lucas.
3. Add secrets for claude-auth and slack-bot.
4. Sync the application.

Notes

• Keep secrets out of Git; use Sealed Secrets or External Secrets.
• Update image tags in k8s/ when you push new images.
• If you already manage RBAC or PVCs separately, remove those manifests from the app.

ArgoCD patterns

You can manage this repo with either App of Apps or an ApplicationSet. Pick one.

App of Apps

Use a single root Application that points to a folder of child Applications. This is good when you want explicit, hand-written app definitions per component or environment.

Example layout:

• argocd/apps/agent.yaml
• argocd/apps/dashboard.yaml
• argocd/apps/storage.yaml
• argocd/apps/root.yaml (points to argocd/apps/)

ApplicationSet

Use an ApplicationSet to generate Applications from a list or directory. This is good when you have multiple environments or clusters.

Example (list generator):

apiVersion: argoproj.io/v1alpha1
kind: ApplicationSet
metadata:
  name: lucas
spec:
  generators:
    - list:
        elements:
          - name: dev
            namespace: a2w-lucas
          - name: prod
            namespace: a2w-lucas
  template:
    metadata:
      name: lucas-{{name}}
    spec:
      project: default
      source:
        repoURL: https://example.com/your/repo.git
        targetRevision: main
        path: k8s
      destination:
        server: https://kubernetes.default.svc
        namespace: {{namespace}}
      syncPolicy:
        automated: {}
