About manusa/Kubernetes MCP Server

A Model Context Protocol server that enables AI assistants to interact with Kubernetes and OpenShift clusters. Written in Go, it exposes cluster resources and operations through the MCP interface for tool-based management.

Best for

Developers and platform engineers who want to manage Kubernetes clusters through conversational AI tools.

Use cases

  • Querying and managing Kubernetes pods, deployments, and services via an AI assistant
  • Troubleshooting cluster issues by inspecting logs and events through natural language
  • Automating routine cluster operations like scaling or rolling updates with AI-driven commands

Notes

1,642 stars on GitHub. Last updated 2026-06-01. Licensed Apache-2.0.

Pros

  • Open source with active development and 1,600+ GitHub stars
  • Supports both Kubernetes and OpenShift clusters out of the box
  • Integrates with any MCP-compatible AI client (e.g., Claude, custom agents)

Cons

  • Requires a running MCP client and network access to the cluster
  • Cluster permissions must be configured separately for the server's service account
  • Limited to operations exposed by the MCP protocol; not a full kubectl replacement

Security check static checks

100 out of 100

Reads what is published about the server: package advisories, licence, secrets in the documented setup and tool permissions. Nothing is installed or run, so this is not a security assessment. Checked by edna-static-v1 npm:kubernetes-mcp-server@0.0.69. What it checks

Licence: Apache-2.0

  • Note The lab has not recorded this server's tool list yet, so tool permissions were not checked.
