MCP.Pizza Chef: containers

Your assistant can list what is running, fetch logs from a failing container, check memory and processor usage, restart or remove things, and install a Helm chart — across every cluster in your configuration file at once. It is a single self-contained program, so there is nothing else to install, and it uses the access you already have. Claude Desktop, Cursor, VS Code, and Goose each have one-line setup instructions.

kubernetes-mcp-server FAQ

Do I need anything else installed?
No. It is one self-contained program, and the native download needs neither Node nor Python.
Which apps does it work with?
Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, and Goose all have ready-made install instructions.
What access does it use?
Whatever your existing cluster configuration file already grants. There is no separate key to create.
Can I use this to troubleshoot a broken deployment?
Yes — it reads events, fetches logs, checks usage, and can run a command inside a running container.
Can it change things, or only look?
It can create, update, and delete. For production the project recommends a locked-down read-only account.
Does it handle more than one cluster?
Yes. Every cluster defined in your configuration is available at the same time.
