There was a problem hiding this comment.
I like the design. It seems nicely least privilege and keeps individual repos in control of their renovate usage.

I really do like the fact that the bot writes to a fork. |

- Adds Renovate pipeline infrastructure for automated dependency updates - Creates reusable job template for running Renovate against GitHub repositories - Configures Renovate with custom regex manager for tracking version variables in Dockerfiles - Updates `src/Dockerfile.linux` with Renovate tracking comment for ORAS version The intent is for `eng/pipelines/templates/jobs/renovate.yml` and `eng/renovate.env` to be moved to Arcade once things have been evaluated in this repo first.

This design document describes my proposal for how Arcade can provide the use of Renovate by consuming repos. The use of Renovate is an important part of dotnet/dotnet-buildtools-prereqs-docker#1321 which will greatly simplify the process of keeping consuming repos up-to-date with supported images. It be used in other scenarios besides Docker, such as needing to keep up-to-date with 3rd party products which provide releases through GitHub.
The language used in the doc describes things as if they already exist, so it'll continue to be correct and relevant once this is all implemented.
My ask is for the dnceng team to own and manage the bot account. I'm happy to implement everything else.
@mmitche - Please add any other reviewers you think should see this.
