Skill2 starsChanged 7 months agoApache-2.0Archived repositoryView on GitHub

Monitor GitOps application health, sync status, and manage ArgoCD deployments via Harness MCP. Use when user says "gitops status", "argocd status", "application sync", "gitops health", "is my app in sync", or asks about GitOps applications.

We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent

7 rules. About 0 are common, 7 are distinctive, and 0 are very specific to this project.

≈ “Common” is an estimate: at least 1 in 5 of the 308,232 skill files we read have a rule of the same kind, not the same words. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.

Keep what fits and drop the rest. Your version, ready for your agents.

GitOps Status

Monitor GitOps application health and manage sync operations via MCP.

Instructions

Step 1: Overview Dashboard

Call MCP tool: harness_get
Parameters:
  resource_type: "gitops_dashboard"

Step 2: List Applications

Call MCP tool: harness_list
Parameters:
  resource_type: "gitops_application"
  org_id: "<organization>"
  project_id: "<project>"

Step 3: Get Application Details

Call MCP tool: harness_get
Parameters:
  resource_type: "gitops_application"
  resource_id: "<app_name>"
  org_id: "<organization>"
  project_id: "<project>"

Step 4: Check Resource Tree

Call MCP tool: harness_get
Parameters:
  resource_type: "gitops_app_resource_tree"
  resource_id: "<app_name>"

Step 5: Get Pod Logs (Debugging)

Call MCP tool: harness_get
Parameters:
  resource_type: "gitops_pod_log"
  resource_id: "<pod_name>"

Step 6: Check Events

Call MCP tool: harness_list
Parameters:
  resource_type: "gitops_app_event"

Step 7: Trigger Sync

Call MCP tool: harness_execute
Parameters:
  resource_type: "gitops_application"
  action: "sync"
  resource_id: "<app_name>"
  org_id: "<organization>"
  project_id: "<project>"

Additional Resource Types

Call MCP tool: harness_list
Parameters:
  resource_type: "gitops_agent"        # ArgoCD agents
  resource_type: "gitops_cluster"      # Connected clusters
  resource_type: "gitops_repository"   # Git repositories
  resource_type: "gitops_applicationset"  # ApplicationSets
  resource_type: "gitops_managed_resource"  # K8s resources

GitOps Resource Types

Resource Type	Operations	Description
`gitops_agent`	list, get	ArgoCD instances
`gitops_application`	list, get, sync	Applications
`gitops_applicationset`	list, get	ApplicationSets
`gitops_cluster`	list, get	K8s clusters
`gitops_repository`	list, get	Git repositories
`gitops_app_event`	list	Application events
`gitops_pod_log`	get	Pod logs
`gitops_managed_resource`	list	K8s resources
`gitops_app_resource_tree`	get	Resource tree
`gitops_dashboard`	get	Overview dashboard

Application Health States

Healthy - All resources running and passing health checks
Degraded - Some resources failing health checks
Progressing - Resources being created/updated
Suspended - Application suspended
Missing - Resources not found
Unknown - Health status cannot be determined

Sync States

Synced - Live state matches desired state in Git
OutOfSync - Live state differs from Git (needs sync)
Unknown - Sync status cannot be determined

Examples

"Show me all GitOps applications" - List gitops_application
"Is the api-gateway in sync?" - Get gitops_application, check sync status
"Sync the payment-service" - Execute sync action
"Get pod logs for failing service" - Get gitops_pod_log
"Show the resource tree for my app" - Get gitops_app_resource_tree

Performance Notes

Check all applications in the requested scope before summarizing health status.
For out-of-sync applications, examine the resource tree to identify the specific drift.
Gather pod logs for failing resources before diagnosing issues.

Troubleshooting

Application OutOfSync

Check git repo for recent changes
Verify auto-sync is enabled if expected
Review sync errors in events
Trigger manual sync if needed

Application Degraded

Check pod logs for application errors
Review resource tree for failing pods
Check resource limits and quotas

Agent Not Connected

Verify ArgoCD agent is running
Check network connectivity
Review agent configuration

How matches are found. Word for word: the exact same text. Edited: shares passages with this file (“99% same” means 99% of its five-word phrases also appear here; 10% or more counts). Their own version: similar meaning, or, weakest, the same name. We can’t tell which project had it first. Projects are counted among the 200 most-starred candidates, and mentions are links to the repository we found, up to 50 per site, so both counts are a floor.

Does it work?

Reviews from people and from AI agents that ran it: what they used it for, and whether it worked.

No reviews yet

People and AI agents can review whether this works in practice. Say what you used it for, and whether it worked.

It worked
Partly
It didn't

What did you use it for? e.g. Reviewing pull requests in a Rails app

Using an agent? It can post a review for you after it has run the file: the MCP tool registry_write, action report. How to connect one.

Your trail

Files you open will collect here, so you can find them again.

Open two or more, and you can remix the rules you like from each into one list. Kept in this browser only.

Now do this for your own.

Bring your CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md or skills. agentleFS shows which of your rules are common, which are yours and which only fit one project, and keeps one version your agents read everywhere.
