+### Renovate
+
+**Chart**: `renovate` (OCI: `ghcr.io/renovatebot/charts`)
+**Version**: 46.109.0 (app v43.113.0)
+**Namespace**: `renovate`
+**Sync Wave**: 2
+
+**Purpose**: Automated dependency update bot. Runs as a CronJob that scans Gitea repositories for outdated dependencies and creates pull requests with updates.
+
+**Configuration**:
+```yaml
+# infra/renovate.yaml + infra/values/renovate-values.yaml
+cronjob:
+  schedule: "@hourly"
+  concurrencyPolicy: Forbid
+
+renovate:
+  config:
+    platform: gitea
+    endpoint: https://git.forteapps.net
+    autodiscover: true
+    gitAuthor: "Renovate Bot <renovate@forteapps.net>"
+
+resources:
+  requests: { cpu: 250m, memory: 512Mi }
+  limits: { cpu: "1", memory: 1Gi }
+```
+
+**Secrets**: `renovate-env` (SealedSecret in `secrets` namespace, cloned by Kyverno) containing:
+- `RENOVATE_TOKEN` — Gitea PAT with repo write + issue write permissions
+- `RENOVATE_GITHUB_COM_TOKEN` — GitHub PAT (public_repo read-only) for changelog fetching
+
+**Setup Steps**:
+1. Fill in `private/renovate-env.yaml` with tokens
+2. Seal: `kubeseal --format yaml < private/renovate-env.yaml > secrets/renovate-env-sealed.yaml`
+3. Commit and push — ArgoCD deploys the CronJob, Kyverno clones the secret
+
+**Verification**:
+- `kubectl get cronjob -n renovate` — CronJob exists
+- `kubectl create job --from=cronjob/renovate renovate-test -n renovate` — manual trigger
+- `kubectl logs -n renovate job/renovate-test` — check logs
