About:
gwctl is a command-line utility designed to interact with the Kubernetes Gateway API. It simplifies the management and debugging of Gateway API resources like Gateways, HTTPRoutes, and Policies. The tool provides a user-friendly interface to inspect the state and relationships of these resources within a cluster.

Key Features:

Inspect Gateway API resources and their relationships
Manage policies attached to Gateway API resources
Provides a high-level view of the Gateway API configuration
Works with standard kubectl contexts and kubeconfig files

Use Cases:

Debugging why traffic is not routing to a service via an HTTPRoute
Inspecting the status and configuration of Gateway resources
Understanding which policies are applied to specific routes or gateways

Alternatives:

kubectl – Standard kubectl requires manual inspection of individual resources, whereas gwctl provides a consolidated view of related resources.
