Habits that save time

Always pass --context in scripts and runbooks. The current context is the most common cause of “I ran it against prod”.
kubectl logs deploy/api picks one pod. Use -l app=api --prefix to see all of them.
--previous shows the logs of the container that crashed, which is what you need for CrashLoopBackOff.
kubectl debug adds a throwaway container with tools to a running pod, so distroless images stay distroless.
