Kube-Argus
The K8s dashboard every team actually wants to use
Kube-Argus is an open-source, real-time K8s dashboard. One binary. Zero dependencies. No CRDs, no agents, no DB. Deploy in 60s with Helm. Viewers get JIT exec approval. Admins get audit trails. Features: AI pod diagnosis, AWS Spot Advisor, config drift detection, drain wizard with PDB preview, pod restart timeline, web terminal, and right-sizing recommendations.
Hey Product Hunt! I'm Manish, and I built Kube-Argus because I was tired of switching between kubectl, k9s, Lens, Grafana, and AWS console just to understand what's happening in our EKS clusters.
The problem I kept running into:
Developers needed to restart deployments but shouldn't have full cluster access
When pods crashed at 2am, debugging meant SSH → kubectl → logs → events → describe — five commands before you even understand the problem
Nobody knew who restarted what, or when
Spot instances would get interrupted and we had no visibility into risk
So I built a single dashboard that does all of it. One Go binary, ~30MB, zero external dependencies. Deploy with helm install and you're done.
The JIT access system is what I'm most proud of - viewers can request temporary exec access with a reason and duration, admins approve from the same dashboard, and everything is audit-logged. Zero-trust, but actually usable.
It's fully open source (Apache 2.0). Would love your feedback!
