- Around line 160-167: Update the Argo CD readiness Job sync policy in
pkg/bundler/gatemanifest/manifest.go:160-167 and its expectation in
pkg/bundler/gatemanifest/manifest_test.go:109-114 to use a non-destructive
lifecycle strategy instead of Replace=true,Force=true, unless repeated
delete-and-recreate execution is explicitly intended; if it is intended, revise
both comments to clearly state that Force=true causes the Job to rerun on every
sync. Keep the manifest output and test assertion consistent.
Apply the same fix in `@pkg/bundler/gatemanifest/manifest_test.go` around lines
109 - 114: The consolidated comment includes the requested rationale correction
and Argo CD integration coverage.

…cation Force=true alone deletes and recreates the readiness-gate Job on every ArgoCD sync, not just genuine spec diffs, needlessly rerunning readiness checks (CodeRabbit finding on PR #2408). ApplyOutOfSyncOnly only works as an Application-level spec.syncPolicy.syncOptions setting, not a per-resource annotation (silently ignored there). Add ApplicationData.ApplyOutOfSyncOnly, scoped to -readiness folders via a shared isReadinessFolder helper, rendered conditionally in application.yaml.tmpl. Verified on kind + real ArgoCD v3.5.1: no-op syncs now leave the Job's UID unchanged; a genuine diff still correctly replaces it. Signed-off-by: Kevin Hawkins <khawkins@nvidia.com>
The readiness-gate Job's argocd.argoproj.io/sync-options annotation used Replace=true alone, which maps to kubectl replace. That fails against a live Job on any upgrade that changes the Job spec (e.g. an image tag bump), because spec.selector and spec.template.metadata.labels are server-generated and immutable, and the rendered manifest correctly omits them. The Application is left permanently OutOfSync while still showing Healthy. Add Force=true so ArgoCD deletes and recreates the Job when a replace fails, instead of a Helm-style sync hook: hook-annotated resources are excluded from ArgoCD's normal drift detection, so an image-tag-only bump could silently go undetected. Verified against a real ArgoCD control plane in a Kind cluster: the unpatched Replace=true annotation reproduces the exact sync failure from the issue on an image-tag bump, and Replace=true,Force=true resolves it (Job deleted and recreated with the new image, Application reports Synced).

Summary
Force ArgoCD to replace the readiness-gate Job on upgrade, without deleting/recreating it on every no-op sync.
Motivation / Context
The readiness-gate Job's
spec.selector/spec.template.metadata.labelsare server-generated and immutable, so a plainReplace=truesync-option (kubectl replace) is rejected by the API server on any spec change (e.g. an image tag bump), leaving the Application permanentlyOutOfSyncwhile still showingHealthy.Fixes: #2367

Two-part fix, added in two commits:
argocd.argoproj.io/sync-options: Replace=true,Force=trueon the readiness-gate Job's own annotations.Force=trueis ArgoCD's documented delete-and-recreate fallback when a replace fails on immutable fields. Deliberately not a Helm-style sync hook — those are excluded from ArgoCD's normal drift detection, which would let an image-tag-only bump go undetected.Force=truealone causes ArgoCD to delete-and-recreate the Job on every sync, not just genuine spec diffs, needlessly rerunning readiness checks. Empirically confirmed (real ArgoCD v3.5.1 on kind) thatApplyOutOfSyncOnlyonly works as anApplication-levelspec.syncPolicy.syncOptionssetting — as a per-resource annotation token it's silently accepted but has zero effect. AddedApplicationData.ApplyOutOfSyncOnly, scoped to just the-readinessfolder's Application (not applied globally) via a sharedisReadinessFolderhelper, rendered conditionally inapplication.yaml.tmpl.Any operator who has already deployed a pre-fix bundle should expect one additional
