Kubently MCP Server

Kubently - Troubleshooting Kubernetes Agentically Kubently (Kubernetes + Agentically) is a free, self-hosted, vendor-neutral multi-cluster Kubernetes troubleshooter. Ask one question, get AI-diagnosed answers from every cluster in your fleet in parallel - including clusters you can't reach directly: executors dial outbound to the central API, so there's no inbound ingress, no shared kubeconfig, and no per-cluster…

People who work with Anthropic and Llm and want it reachable from Claude, Cursor, VS Code, or another MCP client. The project is written in Python.

Set ANTHROPIC_API_KEY, OPENAI_API_KEY, GOOGLE_API_KEY before connecting. LLM_PROVIDER is optional or environment-specific per the README.

Claude Code

claude mcp add kubently-kubently -- npx -y @kubently/cli

Claude Desktop / Cursor / VS Code - add to config

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "kubently-kubently": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@kubently/cli"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Same JSON for Cursor. For VS Code, rename the top-level key from `mcpServers` to `servers`.

Using another client? Same JSON, different key
