kubeswitch is a CLI tool for discovering and switching between Kubernetes contexts across many kubeconfig files and stores (filesystem, Vault, EKS, GKE, AKS, and more). It is designed as a drop-in replacement for kubectx, aimed at operators managing large-scale Kubernetes landscapes.

Use cases

• switch between hundreds of kubernetes cluster contexts
• search kubeconfig files across directories and vault
• replace kubectx with a scalable alternative
• set namespace per terminal window without overwriting kubeconfig
• find clusters with cryptic context names
• alias kubernetes contexts without editing kubeconfig

When to choose

• you operate many clusters with kubeconfigs spread across stores
• you need unified search over cloud providers and Vault
• you want per-terminal context and namespace isolation

When to avoid

• you only manage a handful of local contexts and kubectx suffices
• you need a GUI dashboard for cluster management
