Workflow: Cluster System

Audit and manage the cluster inventory using presets.

Goal

Understand which resources on the cluster are known/managed and which are untracked.

Steps

1. Show preset matches

hydra gitops system <cluster>

Review which presets are active and what they match.

2. Find untracked resources

hydra gitops untracked <cluster>

Resources that appear here are neither: - Rendered by an app's templates - Claimed by a preset

3. Resolve untracked resources

For each untracked resource, decide: - Add to a preset — If it's infrastructure installed outside Hydra - Add refs in an app — If an app should own it - Remove it — If it's genuinely orphaned - Ignore it — If it's expected (e.g., kube-system defaults)

4. Validate

hydra gitops system <cluster>
hydra gitops untracked <cluster> --exclude 'namespace == "kube-system"'
