npm version License: MIT

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for Kubernetes cluster management. Enables AI assistants to interact with Kubernetes resources.

Quick Start

npx @icy-r/kube-mcp

MCP Configuration

Add to your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, etc.):

{ "mcpServers": { "kubernetes": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "@icy-r/kube-mcp"], "env": { "KUBEMCP_DEFAULT_NAMESPACE": "default" } } } }

Custom kubeconfig:

{ "mcpServers": { "kubernetes": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "@icy-r/kube-mcp"], "env": { "KUBEMCP_CONFIG_SOURCE": "custom", "KUBEMCP_KUBECONFIG_PATH": "/path/to/kubeconfig" } } } }

Environment Variables

Variable	Description	Default
`KUBEMCP_CONFIG_SOURCE`	`local` or `custom`	`local`
`KUBEMCP_KUBECONFIG_PATH`	Custom kubeconfig path	-
`KUBEMCP_DEFAULT_NAMESPACE`	Default namespace	`default`
`KUBEMCP_RESPONSE_FORMAT`	`json`, `toon`, `auto`	`auto`

Tools

Tool	Actions
`k8s_deployments`	list, get, scale, restart, get_status, get_metrics
`k8s_pods`	list, get, delete, get_logs, summarize_logs, get_status
`k8s_services`	list, get, get_endpoints
`k8s_configmaps`	list, get, create, update, delete
`k8s_secrets`	list, get, create, update, delete

Safety Features

Destructive actions require explicit confirmation:

{ "action": "delete", "name": "my-pod", "confirm": true }

Preview changes with dry-run:

{ "action": "scale", "name": "my-deployment", "replicas": 5, "dryRun": true }
