Connects an AI agent to Kubernetes for cluster inspection, troubleshooting, and operations through a built-in MCP server.

Open on GitHub

What Radar Kubernetes MCP Server does

Radar gives AI agents access to Kubernetes through its built-in MCP server. An agent can inspect cluster resources, investigate problems, and carry out operations. The project also describes GitOps support and RBAC-enforced access.

Radar runs as a single binary on your machine and talks directly to the Kubernetes API. Cluster data stays on that machine. You’ll need Radar installed and access to the Kubernetes API; the quick install is curl -fsSL https://get.radarhq.io | sh, followed by kubectl radar. The installation instructions don’t include a step for connecting the MCP server to Claude Code, so these commands alone don’t establish that connection.

What it helps with

  • inspect Kubernetes resources
  • investigate a cluster issue
  • run an operation with RBAC controls
  • check GitOps changes

Example prompts for the agent

  • Inspect the resources in my Kubernetes cluster.
  • Investigate what caused this cluster issue.
  • Run this operation using the available RBAC permissions.
