Engineered with 6 sovereign performance primitives for instant cluster observability.
Direct socket HTTPS communication with Kubernetes API server or local kubeconfig context with sub-millisecond pod status caching and zero heap bloat.
Intelligent diagnostic evaluator that interprets Linux kernel exit codes (137 = OOMKilled, 1 = App Panic, 143 = SIGTERM) and produces actionable remediation manifests.
Sub-millisecond tailing and search across millions of container log lines with real-time level filtering (INFO, WARN, ERROR, FATAL).
Connects natively to Cursor IDE and Claude Desktop via stdio. AI agents can diagnose crashing pods, inspect deployment rollouts, and check cluster health autonomously.
High-speed local Web UI listening on 127.0.0.1:7878. Cluster health score gauge, live pod status pills, log modal viewer, and 0% RAM bloat.
Hardware fingerprint binding coupled with Tier 3 24-hour heartbeat lease. Self-contained standalone binary with zero external runtime dependencies.
Download the standalone binary for Windows, Linux, or macOS. No runtimes, no dependencies, zero configuration required.
