Just

helm upgrade --install

to the same version and it should recreate the missing objects.

I want to trigger rke2 to do the reinstall, not me issuing helm commands manually

This isn't strictly magical, but this is where controllers and operators come up and if the app you're deploying is utilizing those things then that should happen. If not, RKE2 can't magically refactor the app for you.

I’m talking about the rke2 helm stuff, not arbitrary helm apps I’ve installed

I think it should happen when the update strategy stuff hits or next time you upgrade kubernetes. I assume we're talking about missing secrets and configmaps and not missing pods.
