k8s-dev-mcp
An MCP server that gives AI assistants access to Kubernetes enhancement proposals (KEPs), contributor guidelines, and official documentation.
What it does
Provides 7 tools over the Model Context Protocol:
Tool | Description |
| List and filter KEPs by SIG, status, or search query |
| Read a full KEP design document by number |
| Read KEP metadata (status, milestones, feature gates) |
| List available convention/guideline documents |
| Read a document, optionally a specific section |
| List section headings in a document |
| Full-text search across all repos |
Documents are sourced from three Kubernetes repos using sparse git checkouts:
kubernetes/enhancements — KEPs
kubernetes/community — contributor guidelines (API conventions, controller patterns, etc.)
kubernetes/website — official docs (API concepts, CRDs, server-side apply, etc.)
