Diagnose GKE Cloud TPU training throughput drops and step-time regressions (15%+ TPU duty-cycle drop) using ML Diagnostics Workload Monitoring (`gcloud alpha mldiagnostics monitored-events` / `hypercomputecluster.googleapis.com/v1alpha`) and 1-minute Cloud Monitoring system metrics (`kubernetes.io/node/accelerator/*`). Distinguishes hardware and network fabric throttling from workload resource bottlenecks (HBM capacity, host memory, or host CPU saturation). Use when TPU training throughput or duty cycle drops without crashing pods, when `PERFORMANCE_DEGRADATION` monitored events fire, or when triaging slow multi-slice training steps. Don't use for complete multi-slice XLA execution stalls with `HANG_DETECTED` logs (use gke-ai-troubleshooting-tpu-mxla-hang) or pod eviction/interruption restarts (use gke-ai-troubleshooting-jobset-interruption).
