How to: Node Shell
By enabling the nodeShell feature gate on a given cluster, K9s allows you to shell into your cluster nodes. Once enabled, you will have a new `s` for `shell` menu option while in node view. K9s will launch a pod on the selected node using a special k9s_shell pod. Furthermore, you can refine your shell pod by using a custom docker image preloaded with the shell tools you love. By default k9s uses a BusyBox image, but you can configure it as follows:

Alternatively, you can now override the context configuration by setting an env variable that can override all clusters node shell gate using `K9S_FEATURE_GATE_NODE_SHELL=true|false`
