Initial comments after a quick read-through. The specific details of what one needs to do are nicely done but I kind of get lost reading through it. For starters, I'd like the Abstract to give a high-level overview of how all these technologies work together and what each contributes. Also, you start out talking about following a workload then end up talking about applications, and we know that "application" has about a zillion meanings in this world. Is an ArgoCD application the same thing as a Keptn application or does a Keptn application include multiple ArgoCD applications? Remember that the Kubernetes docs define a workload as an application.

As you get into the implementation specifics, I kind of get lost. It might help to have a high-level list of what we are going to do at the beginning, just to get me oriented. So something like:

  • Set up the environment
    • Set up a GitHub repository with an access token, GitHub, workflows, and GitHub actions
    • Prepare a Kubernetes namespace for each stage (dev and production)
    • Prepare the ArgoCD applications with an appropriate Helm chart for each
    • Apply labels to associate the Deployment resource with the KeptnWorkLoad resource
    • Define Keptn pre-/post-deployment checks and tasks
    • Define the metadata to be passed through the trace
    • Define a TraceParent that links the deployment traces of the production stage to those of the dev stage
  • Run the production flow...

That's quite rough and probably wrong and not as "rich" as it would be in your voice,,, But a start.
