As a Go developer, I’m surprised Crystal isn’t more popular
I have seen pcap but not packetz, thanks. Pcap looks unfinished and packetz has not been updated in a long time, but they might be able to make a working capture program. However the popularity and features available in Go regarding packet capture makes it very hard to beat. E.g. the Google gopacket library has 5.6k stars on github and as pretty much every feature you'd want for this sort of stuff built in.

eCapture: capture HTTPS traffic without CA certificates on Android/Linux using Golang.
eCapture implements the feature of saving a pcapng file by eBPF TC, and supports TLS Master Secret Key capturing by eBPF Uprobe. Also, gopacket's DSB feature is supported, based on Decryption Secrets Block (DSB)

Is it common to not have a local dev environment in go?
Well, there is https://github.com/google/gopacket/, you have a package that uses CGo, `pcap`, and then there is `pcapgo`, native Go implementation. Doesn't have all the features but in my case, I was able to use it and remove CGo.

Gain Visibility into Istio mTLS Traffic with Mizu
For example, gopacket uses libpcap by default for capturing the traffic. Libpcap doesn't support network namespaces and we can't ask it to listen to traffic on a different namespace. However, we can change the network namespace of the calling thread and then start libpcap to see the traffic on a different namespace.

Gain Visibility into Istio mTLS Traffic with Mizu
Mizu is an open source multi-protocol traffic viewer for Kubernetes that can be used to view API traffic between microservices communicating over synchronous and message queue protocols.Traffic viewing is essential for troubleshooting bugs, defects, and regressions. It helps developers find the root cause of a problem quicker and therefore deploy faster. Mizu is available to download as an executable binary or as source code directly from its GitHub repository.

How do you see TLS traffic on K8's?
As a reminder, Mizu is a lightweight API traffic viewer for Kubernetes that doesn't require any code instrumentation. It provides complete visibility to all API traffic and payloads with support for different protocols and encryption. A short video describing the new feature can be found here [Add link to video].
