  summary: "Keep argo-cd/argo-cd@9.5.15 as the supported public catalog version for now; retain argo-cd/argo-cd@9.5.17 as a proof-complete candidate."
  rationale:
    - "The Argo CD 9.5.17 candidate has render, ConfigHub, local live, and two-cluster live parity evidence."
    - "The current Argo CD 9.5.15 supported scope already has target-scoped support evidence for an existing Argo CD OCI controller."
    - "Replacing the supported GitOps controller chart needs an explicit boundary for CRDs, generated operational Secrets, Redis target facts, storage/backup, and self-management assumptions."
  decisionTopicsReviewed:
    - "CRD lifecycle and upgrade policy"
    - "cluster RBAC review"
    - "extension slot provenance and scan policy"
    - "generated fact ownership"
    - "hook and lifecycle phase policy"
    - "scan/gate warning disposition"
    - "storage backup restore and rollback policy"
  requirementsBeforeReplacement:
    - "Write an Argo CD 9.5.17 target-scoped production support decision with the final CRD ownership, generated Secret, target-fact, and self-management boundary."
    - "Refresh ConfigHub OCI/Argo live evidence for the exact replacement scope after the candidate is selected."
    - "Refresh image and scan disposition decisions for the 9.5.17 rendered object set before treating it as the supported catalog version."
    - "Record whether Argo CD 9.5.15 remains a legacy patch/rollback reference after replacement."
