Deploy ArgoCD - phase 0

[mischavandenburg]

Objective

Deploy ArgoCD to our single-node k3s cluster as the foundation for our GitOps workflow.

Background

• We're setting up ArgoCD manually rather than through GitHub Actions since this is a one-time setup
• This will serve as the basis for managing all future deployments to the cluster
• Documentation of the process will help future contributors understand the setup

Documentation

• Document all manual steps in the project's documentation

Acceptance Criteria

• ArgoCD is successfully deployed to the k3s cluster
• ArgoCD is managing its own deployment through GitOps
• All steps are documented in the project documentation
• Pods are healthy and running in HA mode
• Basic health checks are passing

Future Considerations

• Ingress setup for ArgoCD UI access
• Integration with Azure Key Vault for secrets
• RBAC configuration for team access
• Backup strategy for ArgoCD configurations

Notes

• This is a manual, one-time setup process
• SSH access to the k3s node will be required
