agent-zone-mcp
Supports validation of Helm values and charts, with specialized playbooks and templates for testing Helm charts across different validation paths from local environments to cloud ephemeral setups.
Validates Kubernetes manifests against 5 built-in policies (resource limits, health probes, security, labels, image tags) and provides access to infrastructure knowledge articles, deployment templates, and operational playbooks for K8s clusters.

Infrastructure Knowledge MCP Server
MCP server for Agent Zone — vendor-neutral infrastructure knowledge, K8s validation, and execution templates for AI agents.
Search 200+ articles, validate K8s manifests, get structured playbooks, and discover the right validation path for your infrastructure work. Free, no API key required.
Features
200+ infrastructure articles — Kubernetes, networking, observability, CI/CD, disaster recovery, security, multi-region patterns
10 MCP tools — search, validate, get templates and playbooks, submit feedback
K8s manifest validation — 5 built-in policy checks (resource limits, health probes, security, labels, image tags)
5 validation paths — from static analysis (~40% detection) to cloud ephemeral (~98%)
19 infrastructure templates — searchable by path, tags, and query with download support
6 structured playbooks — step-by-step operational guidance filtered by validation path
Vendor-neutral — not tied to any cloud provider
Free, no API key — works out of the box

Knowledge
Tool | Description |
| Full-text search across all articles. Filter by category. |
| Retrieve full article content by ID (markdown + metadata). |
| Browse all knowledge categories with article counts. |
| Report helpful, inaccurate, or outdated content. |
| Suggest missing topics for the knowledge base. |
Templates & Playbooks
Tool | Description |
| Search/filter infrastructure templates by validation path, tags, or query. |
| Get full template metadata including requirements and produces. |
| Get a structured step-by-step playbook, optionally filtered by validation path. |
Validation
Tool | Description |
| Describe your resources and needs, get the right validation path + templates + playbook. |
| Submit K8s manifests or Helm values, get policy validation results back. |
How It Works
This is a stdio-based MCP server that wraps the Agent Zone REST API. The npm package runs locally and communicates with api.agent-zone.ai over HTTPS. No API key, no account, no local database — just install and use.
A Streamable HTTP endpoint is also available at https://api.agent-zone.ai/mcp for clients that support remote MCP servers directly.
Example: End-to-End Validation Flow
An agent needs to test a Helm chart and has Docker with 8GB RAM:
select_validation_path({work_type: "helm-chart", available_resources: ["docker"], resource_specs: {memory_mb: 8192}})→ recommends Path 3 (minikube) with matching templates and thevalidate-helm-chartplaybooklist_templates({path: 3, query: "minikube"})→ finds setup templatesget_template({id: "local-full~minikube~profiles"})→ gets requirements and setup detailsget_playbook({id: "validate-helm-chart", path: 3})→ structured steps with commands and success criteriavalidate({type: "k8s-manifest", content: "apiVersion: apps/v1\nkind: Deployment..."})→ instant policy checks (resource limits, health probes, security, labels)
Validation Paths
Path | Name | Requirements | Detection Rate |
1 | Static Analysis | None | ~40% |
2 | Local Lightweight | Docker | ~75% |
3 | Local Full-Fidelity | Docker + 4GB+ RAM | ~90% |
4 | Cloud Ephemeral | Cloud account | ~98% |
5 | Free-Tier Cloud | Codespaces/free tier | ~85% |
Policy Checks
The validate tool checks K8s manifests against 5 policies:
require-resource-limits — CPU and memory limits on all containers
require-health-checks — liveness and readiness probes
no-latest-tag — pinned image tags (no
:latestor missing tag)no-privileged — no privileged mode, root user, or privilege escalation
require-labels — standard
