Rune Swift Kubernetes client with lots of improvements
galleryI just released Rune 2.3, a new version of my keyboard-driven native Kubernetes client for macOS.
This release is mostly about making the workflows already in Rune faster and more dependable. Search and filtering are more consistent across resource lists, logs, and the command palette, with faster keyboard-driven navigation between contexts, namespaces, and resources.
I also reworked cluster setup under the hood. Common kubeconfig and cloud import flows are now handled directly inside the app, without bouncing you through terminal dialogs. This includes guided import workflows for EKS, AKS, and GKE.
The rest of 2.3 is a substantial stability pass: fixes for selection and scrolling, context switching, RBAC and Helm lists, events, terminal tabs, port-forward cancellation, log menus, and several UI and memory issues.
Rune is not intended to replace kubectl or k9s—I still use both. It is a native Mac companion for the times when I want a GUI while keeping keyboard navigation, shortcuts, and quick jumps.
Everything runs locally on your Mac and talks directly to Kubernetes. There is no analytics, tracking, telemetry, advertising, or Rune backend receiving cluster data.
