Kubernetes RBAC cookbook: common roles (dev, SRE, read-only) safely

If you’re setting up Kubernetes access for teams and want it to be secure, least-privilege, and easy to maintain, this RBAC cookbook walks through ready-to-use role patterns for Dev, SRE, and Read-only users—plus the common mistakes that accidentally grant too much power.

✅ SRE role → broader operational access (debug, scale, rollout, events) with guardrails
✅ Read-only role → safe observability access (get/list/watch) without mutation rights
✅ Best practices → avoid ClusterAdmin, prefer Role + RoleBinding, review permissions, and validate with kubectl auth can-i
