## Why Kubeshark
|
|
|
|
- **Instant root cause** — trace requests across services, see exact errors
|
|
- **Zero instrumentation** — no code changes, no SDKs, just deploy
|
|
- **Full payload capture** — request/response bodies, headers, timing
|
|
- **TLS decryption** — see encrypted traffic without managing keys
|
|
- **AI-ready** — query traffic with natural language via MCP
