On k8s/devops tooling: I'm building tuis.nvim [1] — Docker and Kubernetes management as Neovim buffer TUIs, built on morph.nvim [2], a react-like UI framework for Neovim. Stay in the editor (if you already use Neovim, of course) instead of switching to k9s, works over SSH, same Vim keybindings you already use. Also has plugins for Bitwarden, process management, and file exploration.

To me particularly, leaving editor isn't a hassle because kitty makes it seamless. Neovim, k9s, zsh shell, agents, it feels like it's just a single IDE, and I believe that specialized tools are simpler and more robust to maintain instead of adding functionality that wasn't intended for neovim. Don't get me wrong, neovim is sufficiently flexible for this, it's just that I had too much agro with neovim extensions that I just prefer native tools.
That is a valid point of view. For me, however, I have found a huge productivity boost being able to stay in Neovim for extended periods of time. That's not to say that my way is the only right way, but the more I'm able to accomplish in Neovim, the less friction I personally experience.
Neither is mine! I'd love to give it a try sometime, but still need to crunch through https://lazyvim-ambitious-devs.phillips.codes/ because my vimfu is sorely lacking
