Hello, I've been working on a side project called Kube Hammer, a desktop app for managing Kubernetes clusters with plenty of features, plugin and customization abilities including BYOK AI-powered diagnosis, and figured I'd share it here to get some honest feedback. These are all features I've wanted from a Kubernetes IDE for years. I did some contributions to Headlamp before but I just wanted to be completely free to make something that can really extensible to cover all of needs. We are about to release mobile apps, almost the same UI on mobile but you know Apple:) Hope I didn't violated any rules of posting. It's free for next three months but here a promo code for folks.

honestly the offline mode is what sold me, but it would be really cool if you could add a diff viewer for comparing yaml revisions before applying them. right now i kind of have to eyeball changes which is a bit nerve wracking on production clusters

finally a kubernetes tool that doesnt phone home or need a cloud account, the etcd backup button alone saved me an hour on a friday.

Finally an offline Kubernetes tool that doesn't phone home. The one-click etcd backup alone saved me an hour on a staging cluster mess.

the offline-first setup is genuinely impressive for something this complex, makes it feel like a real tool instead of another cloud-locked wrapper. bundling etcd backup right into the IDE flow is a clever call too.

Offline mode actually working without weird network tricks is honestly kind of amazing, and the one-click etcd backup alone saved me on day one.

Love that it works fully offline, that's rare. One thing I'd love to see is a built-in cost estimator for the workloads you manage, even a rough monthly projection per namespace would help justify changes to the platform team without needing to leave the app.
