Kubernetes MCP Server

Query Kubernetes pods, services, deployments, and cluster events with natural language.

What it does

Enables LLMs to inspect cluster state, diagnose failing pods (CrashLoopBackOff, OOMKilled), stream pod logs, and validate YAML manifests against live Kubernetes clusters using your existing kubeconfig credentials.

Installation & Setup

Level: advanced

Configure in your MCP client:
```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "kubernetes": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@modelcontextprotocol/server-kubernetes"]
    }
  }
}
```

Prerequisites: Local kubeconfig (~/.kube/config) with active cluster context.

Security & Privacy Notes

Respects Kubernetes RBAC rules of the active kubeconfig context. Read-only commands recommended for safety.
