kube-linter

Static analysis tool that scans Kubernetes YAML manifests and Helm charts for misconfigurations before they're ever deployed.

Overview

kube-linter checks Kubernetes manifests against a set of best-practice rules - missing resource limits, containers running as root, missing health checks, and more - directly in a CI pipeline or locally, catching configuration mistakes before a resource is ever applied to a cluster. It's built to plug into existing CI workflows with minimal setup.

kube-linter is a fit for teams that want to catch Kubernetes misconfigurations at review time rather than in production, a pre-deployment complement to Kubescape and kube-bench (also in this catalog), which assess clusters that are already running.
