Kubectl cost – Kubernetes cost metrics via CLI

In plain words

Kubectl cost is a command-line tool for Kubernetes users who need to monitor and analyze resource costs within their clusters. It integrates with kubectl to provide cost metrics directly through the CLI, making it easy to track spending on compute resources without leaving the terminal. The tool is designed for developers and DevOps engineers managing Kubernetes infrastructure who want visibility into where their cloud spending goes.
