How does it handle sensitive information in Git?

It provides best practices for secure secret management using tools like Sealed Secrets, External Secrets Operator (ESO), and SOPS to ensure secrets are never stored unencrypted.

Does it support progressive delivery strategies?

Yes, it covers strategies for canary and blue-green deployments using Argo Rollouts and Flagger to minimize the risk of production changes through automated analysis.

Does this skill support both ArgoCD and Flux?

Yes, it provides specific implementation guidance and references for both ArgoCD (Applications/ApplicationSets) and Flux (Kustomizations/HelmReleases).

Can it help with multi-cluster deployments?

Absolutely, it includes repository structure patterns and tool-specific configurations designed specifically for multi-environment and multi-cluster management.
