| debug-buttercup | Diagnose pod crashes, restart loops, resource pressure, and service misbehavior for Buttercup Kubernetes deployments |
What It Covers
- Triage workflow: systematic approach starting with pod status, events, and warnings
- Cascade detection: identifying shared-dependency failures (especially Redis) before investigating individual pods
- Redis debugging: AOF issues, queue inspection, consumer group lag, memory diagnostics
- Resource pressure: OOM kills, disk saturation, CPU throttling
- Service-specific patterns: DinD failures, health check staleness, init container blocks
- Diagnostic script: automated snapshot of cluster state, queue depths, and Redis health
