Extensible Kubernetes web UI and desktop dashboard

headlamp.dev ↗

Headlamp's feed is mostly chart bumps; the plugin toolchain is where the actual work shows.

◆Current state
Most of what reaches this feed are Helm chart releases carrying a one-line project description and no changelog, roughly one every six weeks. The one entry with substance is headlamp-plugin 0.14.0, the tooling plugin authors use: a Windows shim fix, execSync replaced with execFileSync to remove a shell-injection path, missing type declarations added for theme customisation, and a long list of dependency security fixes.
◆Where it's heading
Headlamp's investment is visibly in the extension surface rather than the core UI — the plugin tool is where typing, linting and security posture are being tightened. The 0.14.0 scaffolding change is the notable signal: new plugins now generate an AGENTS.md and bundle example plugins so coding agents have context when working in a plugin repository. Chart releases will keep dominating the feed and telling you nothing.
◆Prediction
Further plugin-tool releases focused on type coverage and authoring ergonomics are the likely next visible work; the chart cadence should continue unchanged.

    headlamp-plugin 0.14.0

    The one release in this window with real content, and it is aimed squarely at plugin authors: a Windows binary shim fix, a shell-injection path closed, type declarations for theme interfaces, react-hooks linting, and scaffolding that now emits AGENTS.md plus bundled examples so coding agents start with context.
