What is MCP Kubernetes Server?
The MCP Kubernetes Server is a tool that enables Large Language Models (LLMs) to interact with and manage Kubernetes clusters using natural language. It leverages the Model Context Protocol (MCP) to provide a structured and type-safe interface for LLMs to execute Kubernetes operations.
How to use MCP Kubernetes Server?
To use the MCP Kubernetes Server, you need a Kubernetes cluster with kubectl configured, Python 3.x, and the MCP framework installed. The server exposes Kubernetes functionality to LLMs through MCP, allowing them to execute commands based on natural language prompts. The provided Usage with Claude Desktop section gives an example of how to configure the server with the Claude Desktop client.
