+# helm-charts repo
+
+This repository manages two Helm charts (e.g., `code-server-chart`, `vllm-serve`) and automates packaging and publishing on every `git push`.
+
+## How it works
+
+- Local pre-push hook runs `scripts/helm_publish.sh` to `helm package` and `helm push` all charts found under this folder (directories containing a `Chart.yaml`).
+- A Gitea Actions workflow at `.gitea/workflows/helm-publish.yml` does the same on the server side for each push.
+
+## Configure registry
+
+1. Copy `.env.example` to `.env` and fill in:
+
+```
+HELM_OCI_NAMESPACE=gitea.example.com/your-user
+HELM_USERNAME=your-username
+HELM_PASSWORD=your-token-or-password
+```
+
+2. For CI, add these as repository secrets in Gitea:
+   - `HELM_OCI_NAMESPACE`
+   - `HELM_USERNAME`
+   - `HELM_PASSWORD`
+
+The charts are pushed to `oci://$HELM_OCI_NAMESPACE` (Helm appends the chart name and version).
+
+## Chart discovery
+
+No configuration needed by default. The script auto-discovers chart directories by looking for `Chart.yaml` up to depth 2 (excluding nested `charts/` vendor dir).
+
+Optionally pin which chart directories to process:
+
+```
+export CHART_DIRS="code-server-chart vllm-serve"
+```
+
+## Run manually
+
+```
+./scripts/helm_publish.sh
+```
+
+Use `DRY_RUN=1` to only package locally:
+
+```
+DRY_RUN=1 ./scripts/helm_publish.sh
+```
