Argo CD Source Hydrator automatically renders Helm/Kustomize/plugin outputs and pushes a flat manifest.yaml into Git so Argo CD applies pre-rendered manifests with a full audit trail. Implemented at Intuit across 50 Argo CD instances deployed in six waves, it supports a hydrate two branch to insert security checks or automation (Intuit uses GitOps Promoter to open and merge PRs). Feature removes custom render pipelines and preserves Argo CD’s retrying, UI, and sync behavior.
