Version: v0.2.0

Roadmap

v0.1.0 — First release ✅​

  • Core rule engine with 23 rules covering crash/runtime, scheduling, image pull, networking, rollout, and RBAC
  • Three output formats: text (ANSI), JSON, Markdown
  • Standalone binary (triage) and kubectl plugin (kubectl-kubediag)
  • kubediag pod, kubediag deployment, kubediag namespace, kubediag cluster commands
  • kubediag rules list and kubediag rules explain <id> for rule introspection
  • Request-scoped ResourceCache to avoid redundant Kubernetes API calls
  • GoReleaser distribution (linux/darwin/windows, amd64/arm64)
  • Krew manifest for kubectl plugin installation

v0.2.0 — Rule set expansion ✅​

  • TRG-POD-EXIT-IMMEDIATE — container exits immediately: exec format error, missing binary, wrong architecture (exit 126/127)
  • TRG-SVC-PORT-MISMATCH — service targetPort not exposed by selected pod's containerPorts
  • TRG-POD-BAD-ENV-REF — configMapKeyRef / secretKeyRef pointing at a missing key in an existing ConfigMap or Secret
  • TRG-CLUSTER-QUOTA-EXHAUSTED — namespace ResourceQuota at ≥95% (High) or 100% (Critical)
  • TRG-CLUSTER-APISERVER-LATENCY — Warning events indicating API server / etcd latency
  • kubediag report cluster fully implemented (was a stub)
  • Markdown reports now include a table of contents with anchor links
  • TRG-POD-READINESS-FAILING improvement: samples up to 3 distinct recent event messages per container

v0.3.0 — YAML rule packs (external rules)​

  • Rule pack format: YAML-defined rules with CEL expressions for field matching
  • kubediag rules load ./my-rules.yaml for custom/org-specific rules
  • Rule versioning and conflict resolution
  • Rule pack repository (community-contributed rules)

v0.4.0 — Interactive mode and watch​

  • kubediag watch pod <name> — re-run every N seconds, diff findings
  • --since flag: filter events newer than a duration
  • Interactive selector for kubediag namespace (fzf-style picker)

v1.0.0 — Stable API​

  • Rule ID and finding schema stability guarantee
  • pkg/ promotion for embedding kubediag as a library
  • Deprecation policy enforcement (old IDs kept as aliases for one minor)
  • Comprehensive e2e test suite against kind clusters
  • Homebrew tap and container image

Out of scope (v1)​

  • Mutating operations (kubediag is read-only)
  • Operator/CRD-specific rules (Crossplane, Istio, cert-manager) — v2 roadmap
  • LLM-powered explanation — architecture leaves a pluggable explainer hook
  • Log aggregation / indexing
  • Persistent state or alerting
