 | GitOps | PR #18 合并后，Flux 自行发现 revision `f257a2a` 并删除已在 `prune: true` 下重新进入 inventory 的测试 ConfigMap；未发送 reconcile annotation，`http-echo` Deployment/Service 保持 Ready，root 继续 `prune: false` |
 | Helm migration | 选定 `gitea-actions` 作为第一个 Flux HelmRelease adoption：它不承载 Git、入口、DNS、证书、数据库或 secrets controller。live StatefulSet 与 Git 都使用 regular DinD，但 Helm 保存的 release values/manifest 仍是失败的 rootless 配置；接管先固定 chart `0.1.1` 并验证 live Pod spec 不变，升级另开 PR |
 | Helm adoption stage | 为 `gitea-actions` 加入固定 chart `0.1.1` 的 HelmRepository、values ConfigMap 和 `suspend: true` HelmRelease；第一阶段只让 Flux 登记对象，确认 source 与固定 chart render 后再解除 suspend，失败策略使用 `RetryOnFailure` 以避免回滚到 stored rootless manifest |
+| Helm adoption activate | 第一阶段合并后 Flux source 与子 Kustomization 均 Ready，Helm release 仍为 revision 1，runner Pod 未 rollout；再次确认固定 chart 的完整 render 对 live 集群为零差异后，第二阶段移除 `suspend`，允许 Flux 修正 Helm 存储状态并开始 drift detection |

 接管分两阶段：第一阶段提交 `suspend: true` 的 HelmRelease、HelmRepository 和由
 `values.yaml` 生成的 ConfigMap。Flux 只登记这些对象，不执行 Helm action。合并后
 检查 HelmRepository Ready，并用固定 chart 重复比较期望清单与 live StatefulSet；
