## What this PR does
The `victoria-metrics-operator` HelmRelease in the `kubernetes` app
chart is rendered when `addons.monitoringAgents.enabled` is true, but it
listed `cert-manager-crds` in its `dependsOn` **unconditionally**. The
`cert-manager-crds` HelmRelease is only created when
`addons.certManager.enabled` is true. These are two independent toggles.
### The valid combination that triggers it
`addons.monitoringAgents.enabled: true` + `addons.certManager.enabled:
false` (both default-able, both schema-valid). In this configuration
vmop renders but the dependency it points at never does.
### Before / after
Before:
```yaml
dependsOn:
- name: {{ .Release.Name }}-cilium
namespace: {{ .Release.Namespace }}
- name: {{ .Release.Name }}-cert-manager-crds # always present
namespace: {{ .Release.Namespace }}
```
After:
```yaml
dependsOn:
- name: {{ .Release.Name }}-cilium
namespace: {{ .Release.Namespace }}
{{- if .Values.addons.certManager.enabled }}
- name: {{ .Release.Name }}-cert-manager-crds
namespace: {{ .Release.Namespace }}
{{- end }}
```
### The cascade
With cert-manager disabled, Flux reports on the vmop HelmRelease:
`unable to get '...cert-manager-crds' dependency: helmreleases... not
found`. Because vmop never goes Ready, the dependency chain fails behind
it: `monitoring-agents` (dependsOn `cozy-victoria-metrics-operator`) →
not Ready → `vertical-pod-autoscaler` (dependsOn `monitoring-agents`) →
not Ready.
### Why gating (not unconditional CRDs) is correct
vmop does not require cert-manager. The vendored vmop chart
(`packages/system/victoria-metrics-operator`) defaults
`admissionWebhooks.certManager.enabled` to `false`, and the cozystack
wrapper does not override it. With that default the chart self-generates
the webhook CA/cert (`genCA`/`genSignedCert` in `_helpers.tpl`); the
cert-manager Issuer/Certificate path is fully gated behind
`certManager.enabled`. So the dependency only belongs there when
cert-manager is actually enabled.
Principle: a `dependsOn` must never reference a HelmRelease that isn't
created under the same value combination.
### How it was verified
`helm template` of the template with a CI values fixture:
`certManager.enabled=false` → cilium only:
```yaml
dependsOn:
- name: test-cilium
namespace: tenant-root
```
`certManager.enabled=true` → cilium + cert-manager-crds:
```yaml
dependsOn:
- name: test-cilium
namespace: tenant-root
- name: test-cert-manager-crds
namespace: tenant-root
```
A new `helm unittest` suite
(`tests/victoria-metrics-operator_test.yaml`) asserts the `dependsOn`
for both toggle states. Full package suite passes (13 suites / 125
tests).
### Release note
```release-note
fix(kubernetes): enabling monitoring agents without cert-manager no longer blocks the victoria-metrics-operator HelmRelease (and the monitoring-agents / vertical-pod-autoscaler chain behind it) on a non-existent cert-manager-crds dependency
```

## Summary by CodeRabbit
## Summary by CodeRabbit
* **New Features**
* Added automated template test coverage for the Victoria Metrics
Operator HelmRelease.
* Validates rendered release name and dependency behavior across key
configuration scenarios.
* **Bug Fixes**
* Updated the HelmRelease dependency wiring so the cert-manager CRDs
dependency is included only when cert-manager is enabled.
* Preserved existing monitoring and outer conditional behavior while
refining dependency rendering.
