When a component fails to deploy due to a transient error, you don’t want it to get stuck and fail. You also don’t want an actually-broken component to retry forever. max_auto_retries gives each component a bounded retry budget. The runner will re-plan and re-apply the component up to that many times before surfacing the failure to the workflow. If the component succeeds on a retry, the workflow continues normally.

​
How it works

Set max_auto_retries on any component TOML:
  • On a deploy failure, the runner re-plans and re-applies the component up to N more times. After N failed attempts, the workflow surfaces the failure as it would today.
Each retry is a fresh plan + apply, so it picks up any state that has settled since the previous attempt (e.g. a slow IAM role becoming consistent, an upstream registry recovering).

​
Configuring max_auto_retries

max_auto_retries is supported on every component type: helm_chart, terraform_module, kubernetes_manifest, docker_build, container_image, and pulumi.

​
Helm chart

components/penpot.toml
# helm
name             = "penpot"
type             = "helm_chart"
chart_name       = "penpot"
namespace        = "penpot"
storage_driver   = "configmap"
max_auto_retries = 5

[public_repo]
repo      = "penpot/penpot-helm"
directory = "charts/penpot"
branch    = "main"

[[values_file]]
contents = "./values/penpot.yaml"

​
Terraform module

components/certificate.toml
# terraform
name              = "certificate"
type              = "terraform_module"
terraform_version = "1.11.3"
max_auto_retries  = 5

[public_repo]
repo      = "nuonco/example-app-configs"
directory = "penpot/src/components/certificate"
branch    = "main"

[vars]
install_id  = "{{ .nuon.install.id }}"
region      = "{{ .nuon.install_stack.outputs.region }}"
zone_id     = "{{ .nuon.install.sandbox.outputs.nuon_dns.public_domain.zone_id }}"
domain_name = "{{ .nuon.install.sandbox.outputs.nuon_dns.public_domain.name }}"
Both examples are taken from the penpot app config.
