StormForge and Argo CD are fully compatible — Argo CD just needs to be configured to understand that StormForge is operating in the environment.

After you [install StormForge](/docs/installation/install/), add the following system-level reconcile configuration option to the `argocd-cm` ConfigMap:

```yaml
data:
  resource.customizations.ignoreDifferences.all: |
    managedFieldsManagers:
    - stormforge
```

For more information on the underlying Kubernetes feature that enables managers like ArgoCD and StormForge to co-function, see:
