Use when Argo CD does not deploy or update an application in Kubernetes: an Application that is OutOfSync, Unknown, Degraded, Missing or Progressing, a ComparisonError ("app path does not exist", "unable to resolve ... to a commit SHA"), an InvalidSpecError ("do not match any of the allowed destinations in project"), a sync that fails ("one or more objects failed to apply"), auto-sync that never runs, resources that stay OutOfSync after a sync, or ApplicationSets that generate nothing.…
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Argo CD troubleshooting Find out why Argo CD does not deploy or update an application, and propose a fix. **Read first, ask before changing.** Run the investigation commands freely. Run a command under an "Ask first" line only after the user approves that exact command; if your credentials do not allow it, give it to the user to run. Never run a "Proposed fix"; hand it to the user. An **Application** says: render this path of this repository at this revision, and apply it to this destination. Argo CD compares the rendered manifests with the cluster and reports two things: **sync status** (does the cluster match Git: `Synced`, `OutOfSync`, `Unknown`) and **health** (do the deployed objects work: `Healthy`, `Progressing`, `Degraded`, `Missing`, `Suspended`). Conditions on the Application say why it could not compare or sync. An **AppProject** limits which repositories, destinations and kinds an Application may use. The commands use placeholders: `argocd` (where Argo CD and its Applications live, the default), `my-app` (the Application) and `my-namespace` (where it deploys). Replace them with the real names. …

How to install
mdr add k8s-servant/k8s-skills/k8s-argocd-troubleshooting@sha256:44d87c859bdec225The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261024.1d1d765, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
