Checks
- This isn't a question or user support case (For Q&A and community support, go to Discussions).
- I've read the Changelog before submitting this issue and I'm sure it's not due to any recently-introduced backward-incompatible changes
To Reproduce
1. Deploy the 2 ARC helm charts (v0.12.0) with ArgoCD (I'm doing so through Terraform)
2. Go to the controller appset in Argocd
3. ephemeralrunnersets, ephemeralrunners, autoscalingrunnersets, autoscalinglisteners are OutOfSync with the same diff showing: The desired manifest has `preserveUnknownFields: false` which the live manifest is missing.
from live manifest:
apiVersion: apiextensions.k8s.io/v1
kind: CustomResourceDefinition
metadata:
annotations:
controller-gen.kubebuilder.io/version: v0.17.2
creationTimestamp: '2025-06-15T12:33:55Z'

...Describe the bug
I'm currently setting up an EKS cluster with ARC installed using Terraform, Helm and ArgoCD.
I had this issue: #3533 (comment) Then upgraded the argocd chart to 7.8.5 and it solved it.
Now when installing the controller and runner, ArgoCD shows OutOfSync on the github-runners-controller AppSet.
I made sure to delete both arc-systems and arc-runners namespaces and re-deployed them but the issue persists.
I am able to use the runners in Github regardless.
Describe the expected behavior
ArgoCD AppSets are in Synced status
