Capturing the evidence before the fix destroys it

A one-command Kubernetes support bundle.

The rollback replaces the crashed containers whose logs held the answer, and the events age out after an hour. One command captures nodes, events, resource dumps, describe output and per-container logs including the previous crashed container, in about thirty seconds. Secret data is never collected, and that is enforced by the RBAC rather than promised by the code.

What is in it

  • The problem — what goes unanswered without it, and who notices first.
  • Why the obvious alternative falls short — stated plainly, including where it is the better choice.
  • How it works — the method, not a feature list.
  • Concrete use cases — with console output quoted from the repository, never reconstructed.
  • The methodology behind any number it emits — every term shown, so the figure survives a question.
  • What it deliberately does not do — the section most papers leave out.
