<@U06RKAMK0UC> Does flytekit version need to match the flyte core helm chart version?

*Reasoning Complete!* :robot_face: 

:mag: *Searched knowledge base*: I'll look up official documentation to see if flytekit and Flyte core versions need to match, or if there are compatibility guidelines.

:writing_hand: *Generated answer*: Based on the documentation, Flytekit and Flyte core (Helm chart) versions do not need to match exactly, but it's best to keep their major/minor versions aligned for compatibility. You can upgrade them independently, but always check release notes for any breaking changes.

No, the `flytekit` version does not need to exactly match the Flyte core Helm chart version. While it is recommended to keep `flytekit` and Flyte core components (deployed via Helm) reasonably aligned for best compatibility, they are versioned and released independently. The Flyte release process aligns versions for user-facing components (like Flytekit, FlyteAdmin, FlytePropeller, Console, etc.), but you can upgrade `flytekit` separately as needed, and the Helm chart version may differ <https://github.com/flyteorg/flyte/blob/master/rfc/system/2704-release-cycle-process-updates.md|[release cycle process updates>].

However, using very old or very new versions of `flytekit` with mismatched Flyte core may lead to incompatibilities or missing features, so it's best practice to use versions from the same release cycle or check the release notes for compatibility guidance <https://github.com/flyteorg/flyte/blob/master/rfc/system/2704-release-cycle-process-updates.md|[release cycle process updates>]. Would you like more detail on how to check for compatibility or manage upgrades?
