+# Copilot Instructions for Helmfile
+
+## Repository Overview
+
+Helmfile is a tool for deploying Helm charts that manages Kubernetes deployments as code. It provides templating, environment management, and GitOps workflows for Helm chart deployments.
+
+Helmfile is a declarative tool. In Helmfile, all elements of the desired state for deployments must be included in the `helmfile.yaml` config file and any associated files. Only operational matters can be provided dynamically, via command-line flags and environment variables.
+
+**Key Details:**
+- **Language:** Go 1.24.2+
+- **Type:** CLI tool / Kubernetes deployment management
+- **Size:** Large codebase (~229MB binary, 200+ dependencies)
+- **Runtime:** Requires Helm 3.x as external dependency
+- **Target Platform:** Linux/macOS/Windows, Kubernetes clusters
+
+## Build and Validation Commands
+
+### Essential Setup
+Helmfile requires Helm 3.x and Kustomize 5.x as runtime dependencies:
+```bash
+# Check for Helm dependency (REQUIRED)
+helm version  # Must show version 3.x
+
+# Initialize Helm plugins after helmfile installation
+./helmfile init  # Installs required helm-diff plugin
+
+# Alternative: Force install without prompts
+./helmfile init --force
+```
+
+### Build Process
+```bash
+# Standard build (takes 2-3 minutes due to many dependencies)
+make build
+
+# Alternative direct build
+go build -o helmfile .
+
+# Build with test tools (required for integration tests, ~1 minute)
+make build-test-tools  # Creates diff-yamls and downloads dyff
+
+# Cross-platform builds
+make cross
+```
+
+**Build Timing:** First build downloads 200+ Go packages and takes 2-3 minutes. Subsequent builds are faster due to module cache. Test tools build is faster (~1 minute).
+
+### Validation Pipeline
+Run in this exact order to match CI requirements:
+
+```bash
+# 1. Code formatting and linting  
+make check           # Run go vet (required - always works)
+# Note: make fmt requires gci tool (go install github.com/daixiang0/gci@latest)
+
+# 2. Unit tests (fast, ~30 seconds)
+go test -v ./pkg/... -race -p=1
+
+# 3. Integration tests (requires Kubernetes - see Environment Setup)
+make integration     # Takes 5-10 minutes, needs minikube/k8s cluster
+
+# 4. E2E tests (optional, needs expect package)
+sudo apt-get install expect  # On Ubuntu/Debian
+bash test/e2e/helmfile-init/init_linux.sh
+```
+
+### Linting Configuration
+Uses golangci-lint with configuration in `.golangci.yaml`. Install via:
+```bash
+# For local development
+curl -sSfL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/golangci/golangci-lint/master/install.sh | sh -s -- -b $(go env GOPATH)/bin v2.1.6
+golangci-lint run
+```
+
+**Critical Lint Rules:** staticcheck, errcheck, revive, unused. Fix lint errors before committing.
+
+## Environment Setup Requirements
+
+### Dependencies for Development
+```bash
+# Required for building/testing
+go version            # Must be 1.24.2+
+helm version         # Must be 3.x
+kubectl version      # For K8s integration
+
+# Required for integration tests
+minikube start       # Or other K8s cluster
+kustomize version    # v5.2.1+ for some tests
+```
+
+### Integration Test Environment
+Integration tests require a running Kubernetes cluster:
+
+```bash
+# Using minikube (recommended for CI)
+minikube start
+export KUBECONFIG=$(minikube kubeconfig-path)
+
+# Using kind (alternative)
+kind create cluster --name helmfile-test
+
+# Verify cluster access
+kubectl cluster-info
+```
+
+**Timing:** Integration tests take 5-10 minutes and may fail due to timing issues in resource-constrained environments.

+
+### Key Source Files
+- **main.go:** Signal handling, CLI execution entry point
+- **cmd/root.go:** Global CLI configuration, error handling, logging setup  
+- **pkg/app/app.go:** Main application orchestration, state management
+- **pkg/state/state.go:** Helmfile state parsing, release management
+- **pkg/helmexec/exec.go:** Helm command execution, version detection
+
+### Configuration Files
+- **go.mod/go.sum:** Go dependencies (many cloud providers, k8s libraries)
+- **.golangci.yaml:** Linting rules and settings
+- **Makefile:** Build targets and development workflows
+- **mkdocs.yml:** Documentation generation configuration
+- **.github/workflows/ci.yaml:** Complete CI pipeline definition
+
+## Continuous Integration Pipeline
+
+### GitHub Actions Workflow (`.github/workflows/ci.yaml`)
+1. **Lint Job:** golangci-lint with custom configuration (~5 minutes)
+2. **Test Job:** Unit tests + binary build (~10 minutes)  
+3. **Integration Job:** Tests with multiple Helm/Kustomize versions (~15-20 minutes each)
+4. **E2E Job:** User workflow validation (~5 minutes)
+
+**Matrix Testing:** CI tests against multiple Helm versions (3.17.x, 3.18.x) and Kustomize versions (5.2.x, 5.4.x).
+
+### Pre-commit Validation Steps
+Always run these locally before pushing:
+```bash
+make check           # Format and vet (required)
+go test ./pkg/...    # Unit tests  
+make build          # Verify build works
+# Note: make fmt requires gci tool: go install github.com/daixiang0/gci@latest
+```
+
+### Common CI Failure Causes
+- **Linting errors:** Run `golangci-lint run` locally first
+- **Integration test timeouts:** K8s cluster setup timing issues
+- **Version compatibility:** Ensure Go 1.24.2+ and Helm 3.x
+- **Race conditions:** Some tests are sensitive to parallel execution
+
+## Development Gotchas and Known Issues
+
+### Build Issues
+- **Long initial build time:** First `make build` downloads 200+ packages (~2-3 minutes)
+- **Memory usage:** Large binary size due to embedded dependencies  
+- **Git tags:** Build may show version warnings if not on tagged commit
+- **Tool dependencies:** `make fmt` requires `gci` tool installation
+
+### Testing Issues  
+- **Integration tests require K8s:** Will fail without cluster access
+- **Test isolation:** Use `-p=1` flag to avoid race conditions
+- **Minikube timing:** May need to wait for cluster ready state
+- **Plugin dependencies:** Tests need helm-diff and helm-secrets plugins
+
+### Runtime Requirements
+- **Helm dependency:** Always required at runtime, not just build time (available in CI)
+- **kubectl access:** Most operations need valid kubeconfig
+- **Plugin management:** `helmfile init` must be run after installation
+
+### Common Error Patterns
+```bash
+# Missing Helm
+"helm: command not found" → Install Helm first
+
+# Plugin missing  
+"Error: plugin 'diff' not found" → Run helmfile init
+
+# K8s access
+"connection refused" → Check kubectl cluster-info
+
+# Permission errors
+"permission denied" → Check kubeconfig and cluster access
+
+# Missing tools
+"gci: No such file or directory" → go install github.com/daixiang0/gci@latest
+```
+
+## Working with the Codebase
+
+### Making Changes
+- **Follow Helmfile design**: Helmfile is a declarative deployment tool. Anything that is part of the desired state of the deployments needs to be managed by Helmfile configs. Only operational knowledge that affects "how" to apply the desired state needs to be runtime options, like command-like flags and environment variables.
+- **Small, focused changes:** Each PR should address single concern
+- **Test coverage:** Add unit tests for new pkg/ functionality
+- **Integration tests:** Update test-cases/ for new CLI features
+- **Documentation:** Update docs/ for user-facing changes
+
+### Key Packages to Understand
+- **pkg/app:** Main business logic, start here for feature changes
+- **pkg/state:** Helmfile parsing and release orchestration  
+- **cmd/:** CLI interface changes and new subcommands
+- **pkg/helmexec:** Helm integration and command execution
+
+### Architecture Patterns
+- **Dependency injection:** App uses interfaces for testability
+- **State management:** Immutable state objects, functional transforms
+- **Error handling:** Custom error types with exit codes
+- **Plugin system:** Extensible via Helm plugins and Go templates

 dependencies of any referenced local charts.

+
+* `--timeout SECONDS` - Override the default timeout for all releases in this sync operation. This takes precedence over `helmDefaults.timeout` and per-release `timeout` settings.

+# Override timeout for all releases to 10 minutes
+helmfile sync --timeout 600
+
+# Combine timeout with wait flags
+helmfile sync --timeout 900 --wait --wait-for-jobs

+# Target specific releases with custom timeout
