What are the core principles followed by this skill?

The skill adheres to the four OpenGitOps principles: systems must be declarative, versioned and immutable, pulled automatically, and continuously reconciled.

What tools does this GitOps Workflow skill support?

This skill supports both ArgoCD and Flux CD, the leading CNCF projects for implementing GitOps on Kubernetes clusters.

Can I use this for progressive delivery strategies?

Absolutely. The skill includes specific configurations for Canary and Blue-Green deployments using ArgoCD Rollouts to minimize release risk.

Does it handle secret management in Git repositories?

Yes, it provides implementation patterns for managing secrets securely using the External Secrets Operator and Sealed Secrets to ensure sensitive data is never stored in plain text.
