About inspektor-gadget/ig-mcp-server

A Go-based MCP server that exposes Inspektor Gadget's container and Kubernetes debugging capabilities through an AI interface. It allows developers to inspect workloads, trace system calls, and analyze network activity using natural language queries.

Best for

Developers debugging container and Kubernetes workloads who want a conversational interface to eBPF-based introspection tools.

Use cases

  • Debug container crashes by querying recent syscall activity
  • Trace network connections from a specific pod without kubectl exec
  • Analyze file system operations of a misbehaving Kubernetes workload

Notes

25 stars on GitHub. Last updated 2026-05-22. Licensed Apache-2.0.

Pros

  • Leverages Inspektor Gadget's powerful eBPF-based introspection without manual CLI commands
  • Integrates with AI assistants for interactive debugging sessions
  • Open source and written in Go, easy to extend or audit

Cons

  • Requires Inspektor Gadget to be installed and configured on the cluster
  • Small community (25 stars) means limited documentation and support
  • AI interface adds latency compared to direct CLI usage
