- Multi-Cluster Native — Run a single query across multiple clusters and environments.
- Interactive REPL — Shell with auto-completion, syntax highlighting, and macros for common tasks.
- Web Graph UI — Visualize resources and relationships, execute queries with instant feedback.
- Dynamic Operators — Define reactive workflows and production operators without writing Go code.
Use cases
- Delete all non-running pods across namespaces with a single MATCH-DELETE query.
- Explore relationships between custom resources in a visual graph UI.
