Build and manage a kind cluster for Workload-Aware Scheduling (WAS) e2e tests. Use when the user wants to set up, run tests against, or tear down a WAS test cluster built from Kubernetes main.
Flag solutions more elaborate than the problem requires — complexity that exists only because the author reached for a pattern.
Flag identical (or near-identical) blocks across types/adapters/call sites that should live in a shared helper — and newly extracted helpers with only one caller.
Flag code organization that a future maintainer will struggle to follow, modify, or extend.
Flag code put somewhere a reader would not expect to find it — cleanup scattered across callers, validation deep in business logic.
Flag unnecessary indirection, mismatched abstractions, or confusing data flow that obscures what the code is doing.
