Complete guide to implementing GitOps workflows with ArgoCD and Flux for automated Kubernetes deployments.

Purpose

Implement declarative, Git-based continuous delivery for Kubernetes using ArgoCD or Flux CD, following OpenGitOps principles.

Use this skill when

• Set up GitOps for Kubernetes clusters
• Automate application deployments from Git
• Implement progressive delivery strategies
• Manage multi-cluster deployments
• Configure automated sync policies
• Set up secret management in GitOps

Do not use this skill when

• You need a one-off manual deployment
• You cannot manage cluster access or repo permissions
• You are not deploying to Kubernetes

Instructions

1. Define repo layout and desired-state conventions.
2. Install ArgoCD or Flux and connect clusters.
3. Configure sync policies, environments, and promotion flow.
4. Validate rollbacks and secret handling.

Safety

• Avoid auto-sync to production without approvals.
