My deployment shows CrashLoopBackOff. kubectl logs shows the app starting then stopping. How do I debug liveness/readiness probes and startup timing?

CrashLoopBackOff almost always means the container's main process exits. Check kubectl logs --previous. Common causes: readiness probe on a port the app binds late, missing env/secret, or the app needing a writable volume it doesn't have.
