 The chart is `deploy/helm/squirrelbot`. It runs one replica with the Recreate strategy, a read-only root filesystem, and a non-root user. Liveness is `/healthz`. Readiness is `/readyz`, which stays down until Postgres answers and the Discord gateway is ready.

+`--set` and a private values file make the chart create the Secret. To use a Secret that already exists, set `existingSecret` to its name. The chart then mounts that Secret and does not create one.

 `deploy/flux/squirrelbot-kustomization.yaml` is a Flux Kustomization for the published chart. It reconciles `deploy/flux/squirrelbot`. Create a Secret named `squirrelbot` in the `squirrelbot` namespace before the first reconcile, with those keys. Point `sourceRef` at your Flux GitRepository when it is not named `flux-system`. Pin `version` in the HelmRelease to stop automatic upgrades.

+- The Helm chart, attached to the GitHub release and published to `oci://ghcr.io/boxingoctopuscreative/charts/squirrelbot`. Each release also carries an `index.yaml`, so Helm can add the release archive as a chart repository.
 
 The published chart uses that GHCR image. The chart in this repository keeps the local image name `squirrelbot`, which matches `make image`. Install the published chart with the same `--set` values as the local chart, and set `--version` to the release you want.

 CI sets the GHCR package visibility to match the repository.
