# Overview

This short demo shows how Kubegrade troubleshoots and fixes a real Kubernetes pod that keeps restarting.

Kubegrade automates Kubernetes troubleshooting by detecting issues, explaining root causes, and fixing them through GitOps pull requests.



# Scenario

An NGINX pod repeatedly restarts due to a configuration issue, causing instability and failed container runs.



# What happens in the demo

- What happens in the demo:
- Identify a pod stuck in a restart loop
- Inspect logs and confirm failures in terminal
- Open Kubegrade visualization and select the affected namespace
- Ask the agent to diagnose why the pod keeps restarting
- AI performs root cause analysis
- Configuration error is detected
- Multiple remediation options are suggested
- Kubegrade generates a Git pull request with the fix
- Faulty pod is deleted (immutable pod behavior)
- PR is reviewed and merged
- Pod is recreated automatically
- Deployment stabilizes and runs successfully
- No manual log digging
- No trial-and-error YAML edits
- No guesswork debugging


# This is one example. The same workflow applies to:

- Restarting pods
- Failing containers
- Misconfigured deployments
- Runtime configuration errors
- Production instability issues
