## What it is
A set of shell scripts and GitHub Actions automation that syncs Kubernetes images from k8s.gcr.io to Docker Hub so Docker Desktop for Mac users can enable a local Kubernetes cluster behind restricted networks. It reloads the images locally and retags them to their original names so the cluster starts successfully.

## Use cases
- enable kubernetes in docker desktop on mac behind a restricted network
- pull k8s.gcr.io images when they are blocked
- set up a local kubernetes cluster for learning on mac
- mirror kubernetes images to docker hub automatically
- fix docker desktop kubernetes failing to start due to image pull errors
- retag synced kubernetes images to their original tags

## When to choose
- you use Docker Desktop on macOS and cannot pull images from k8s.gcr.io due to network restrictions
- you want a quick local Kubernetes cluster for learning and development
- you need a simple script-based mirror rather than a full registry proxy

## When to avoid
- you are on Linux or Windows rather than Docker Desktop for Mac
- you need a production-grade cluster or full registry mirror service
- your network can reach k8s.gcr.io directly
- you need a Kubernetes version not covered by the synced image list
