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
