💖 NAME 💖

okay so bestie, meet kubens — Tool to switch between Kubernetes namespaces, and configure them for kubectl. This page is kubens(1), and yes it's serving User Commands section energy. 🫶

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

Switch between Kubernetes namespaces. That's literally the whole plot, and it's iconic. ✨

🎀 USAGE: 🎀

  • kubens — list the namespaces in the current context
  • kubens <NAME> — change the active namespace of current context
  • kubens <NAME> --force/-f — force change the active namespace of current context (even if it doesn't exist)
  • kubens - — switch to the previous namespace in this context
  • kubens -c, --current — show the current namespace
  • kubens -h,--help — show this message
  • kubens -u,--unset — unset the namespace choice (set to 'default')
  • kubens -V,--version — show version
No cap: --force/-f is the bold one, and it says the namespace can be changed even if it doesn't exist. Read that part twice, bestie. 💅

xoxo, your Unix bestie 💜 — this was kubens 0.11.0-1, April 2026, KUBENS(1). slay those namespaces responsibly. 🎀
