Query Explanation

The query counts how many times each container in a pod has restarted in the last minute (increase(kube_pod_container_status_restarts_total[1m])). If this increase exceeds 3 (i.e., the pod has restarted at least four times within a minute), the alert fires, signalling a crash‑looping pod.
