# Cloud Provider Configuration
K8s MCP Server provides support for major cloud-managed Kubernetes services (EKS, GKE, AKS). This document details how to configure each provider.
## Amazon EKS
K8s MCP Server includes AWS CLI for seamless integration with Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS).
### Prerequisites
1. AWS CLI credentials configured in your `~/.aws` directory
2. Access to an EKS cluster
3. `kubectl` configured to access your EKS cluster
### Configuration
1. **Mount AWS credentials** in your Claude Desktop configuration:
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"k8s-mcp-server": {
"command": "docker",
"args": [
"run",
"-i",
"--rm",
"-v",
"/Users/YOUR_USER_NAME/.kube:/home/appuser/.kube:ro",
"-v",
"/Users/YOUR_USER_NAME/.aws:/home/appuser/.aws:ro",
"ghcr.io/alexei-led/k8s-mcp-server:latest"
]
}
}
}
```
2. **Set AWS environment variables** (optional):
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"k8s-mcp-server": {
"command": "docker",
"args": [
"run",
"-i",
"--rm",
"-v",
"/Users/YOUR_USER_NAME/.kube:/home/appuser/.kube:ro",
"-v",
"/Users/YOUR_USER_NAME/.aws:/home/appuser/.aws:ro",
"-e",
"AWS_PROFILE=my-profile",
"-e",
"AWS_REGION=us-west-2",
"ghcr.io/alexei-led/k8s-mcp-server:latest"
]
}
}
}
```
3. **Update kubeconfig** for EKS cluster access (if not already done):
```bash
aws eks update-kubeconfig --name my-cluster --region us-west-2
```
### Troubleshooting EKS
1. **Authentication issues**:
- Ensure AWS credentials are properly mounted
- Check that your AWS profile has sufficient permissions
- Verify your EKS cluster exists in the specified region
2. **Connection issues**:
- Check that your kubeconfig is correctly configured for EKS
- Ensure your network can reach the EKS API server
## Google GKE
K8s MCP Server includes Google Cloud SDK and GKE auth plugin for working with Google Kubernetes Engine.
### Prerequisites
1. gcloud CLI credentials configured in your `~/.config/gcloud` directory
2. Access to a GKE cluster
3. `kubectl` configured to access your GKE cluster
### Configuration
1. **Mount GCP credentials** in your Claude Desktop configuration:
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"k8s-mcp-server": {
"command": "docker",
"args": [
"run",
"-i",
"--rm",
"-v",
"/Users/YOUR_USER_NAME/.kube:/home/appuser/.kube:ro",
"-v",
"/Users/YOUR_USER_NAME/.config/gcloud:/home/appuser/.config/gcloud:ro",
"ghcr.io/alexei-led/k8s-mcp-server:latest"
]
}
}
}
```
2. **Set GCP environment variables** (optional):
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"k8s-mcp-server": {
"command": "docker",
"args": [
"run",
"-i",
"--rm",
"-v",
"/Users/YOUR_USER_NAME/.kube:/home/appuser/.kube:ro",
"-v",
"/Users/YOUR_USER_NAME/.config/gcloud:/home/appuser/.config/gcloud:ro",
"-e",
"CLOUDSDK_CORE_PROJECT=my-gcp-project",
"-e",
"CLOUDSDK_COMPUTE_REGION=us-central1",
"ghcr.io/alexei-led/k8s-mcp-server:latest"
]
}
}
}
```
3. **Update kubeconfig** for GKE cluster access (if not already done):
```bash
gcloud container clusters get-credentials my-cluster --region=us-central1
```
### Troubleshooting GKE
1. **Authentication issues**:
- Ensure GCP credentials are properly mounted
- Check that your GCP service account or user has sufficient permissions
- Verify your GKE cluster exists in the specified project and region
2. **Connection issues**:
- Check that your kubeconfig is correctly configured for GKE
- Ensure your network can reach the GKE API server
## Microsoft AKS
K8s MCP Server includes Azure CLI for working with Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS).
### Prerequisites
1. Azure CLI credentials configured in your `~/.azure` directory
2. Access to an AKS cluster
3. `kubectl` configured to access your AKS cluster
### Configuration
1. **Mount Azure credentials** in your Claude Desktop configuration:
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"k8s-mcp-server": {
"command": "docker",
"args": [
"run",
"-i",
"--rm",
"-v",
"/Users/YOUR_USER_NAME/.kube:/home/appuser/.kube:ro",
"-v",
"/Users/YOUR_USER_NAME/.azure:/home/appuser/.azure:ro",
"ghcr.io/alexei-led/k8s-mcp-server:latest"
]
}
}
}
```
2. **Set Azure environment variables** (optional):
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"k8s-mcp-server": {
"command": "docker",
"args": [
"run",
"-i",
"--rm",
"-v",
"/Users/YOUR_USER_NAME/.kube:/home/appuser/.kube:ro",
"-v",
"/Users/YOUR_USER_NAME/.azure:/home/appuser/.azure:ro",
"-e",
"AZURE_SUBSCRIPTION=my-subscription-id",
"-e",
"AZURE_DEFAULTS_LOCATION=eastus",
"ghcr.io/alexei-led/k8s-mcp-server:latest"
]
}
}
}
```
3. **Update kubeconfig** for AKS cluster access (if not already done):
```bash
az aks get-credentials --resource-group myResourceGroup --name myAKSCluster
```
### Troubleshooting AKS
1. **Authentication issues**:
- Ensure Azure credentials are properly mounted
- Check that your Azure account has sufficient permissions
- Verify your AKS cluster exists in the specified resource group
2. **Connection issues**:
- Check that your kubeconfig is correctly configured for AKS
- Ensure your network can reach the AKS API server
