A practical pocketbook for engineers who need fast, reliable Kubernetes insights during incidents.

Instead of generic jq examples, this guide is built around real-world `kubectl -o json | jq ...` workflows used in production triage: pod health, restarts, pending scheduling, service/endpoints mismatches, node pressure, rollout drift, storage signals, RBAC checks, and more.

Each section is action-oriented:

what to run
when to use it
how to quickly interpret the output

This book is designed for SREs, DevOps engineers, platform teams, and backend engineers who want to move from “cluster feels broken” to concrete evidence in minutes.

You can use it as:

a rapid incident companion
a daily cluster inspection reference
a teaching aid for teams adopting jq-powered Kubernetes troubleshooting

The content is versioned and continuously improved with new operational recipes, so the book stays useful as your environments evolve.
