Score: 7.5/10 (Innovation: 8, Technical: 8, Documentation: 7, Utility: 7)

Kplane is an open-source CLI tool that allows users to run thousands of virtual Kubernetes control planes on a single shared API server, drastically reducing resource overhead. It combines existing multi-cluster concepts with a novel shared-apiserver architecture, achieving ~3MB memory per control plane and enabling high-density multi-tenancy. Its innovative approach to virtualizing control planes addresses a known gap in Kubernetes scalability for AI agents and platform teams.
