Managing production commands and scripts manually is a tedious and error-prone process that often leads to significant downtime and operational headaches.

In the past, I've been one of the few senior engineers on a team trusted with production console access. This caused frustration for me since I could never fully disconnect, even during vacation, frustration for my team who had to sync with me even for minor changes, and frustration for customers whose support inquiries were delayed while waiting for my intervention.

In one case, I even accidentally deleted an entire table in production due to a typo in a command, and we had to take our app offline for several hours to complete a point-in-time restore. 😬

I created Tuki to provide an alternative that mitigates the frustration, inefficiency, and risk of directly accessing the production console. Tuki also brings all the compliance features you need—auditing, RBAC, etc.—via Git.

While many complete GitOps solutions exists for deploying your entire production infrastructure, e.g., with Kubernetes, there is a lack of a single-purpose tools that fit the one-off task use case for teams with simpler deployment approaches. Tuki fills that gap :)
