This is an interesting use-case, one way you might be able to achieve this is using technosophos' template plugin[1] which will allow you to skip the trip to the cluster and render templates client-side.

Looks like what I was looking for. Only minor nit is that I can't set --name like in helm install, but I can easily just search and replace in the yaml file.
