KubeView MCP – Kubernetes Model Context Protocol Server

KubeView is a read-only Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that lets AI agents (Cursor, Claude Code, Codex CLI, Gemini CLI, etc.) safely inspect, diagnose, and debug Kubernetes clusters. It covers Kubernetes core, Helm, Argo Workflows, and Argo CD.

Read more: Evicting MCP tool calls from your Kubernetes cluster

✨ Features

🧠 Code Mode – Sandboxed TypeScript runtime for complex reasoning and multi-step workflows.
🛡️ Read-Only & Safe – Zero write access; sensitive data masking for production clusters.
☸️ Kubernetes – List/get resources, fetch metrics, stream logs and events, exec into containers, diagnose network issues.
📦 Helm (API-first) – Inspect releases, values, manifests, and history via the Kubernetes API with CLI fallback.
🐙 Argo Ecosystem – Manage Argo Workflows and Argo CD via the Kubernetes API or CLI.

🚀 Quick Start

Prerequisites

Node.js ≥ 18
Access to a Kubernetes cluster
Optional CLIs in $PATH: helm (fallback only), argo, argocd

Installation

# Run the server directly
npx -y kubeview-mcp

# Add to Claude Code
claude mcp add kubernetes -- npx kubeview-mcp

MCP Client Configuration

Add to your mcpServers config (Cursor, Claude Desktop, etc.):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "kubeview": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "kubeview-mcp"]
    }
  }
}

Environment Variables

Variable	Description	Default
`KUBECONFIG`	Path to kubeconfig file	`~/.kube/config`
`MCP_TRANSPORT`	Transport: `stdio` (default) or `http`	`stdio`
`MCP_MODE`	Server mode: `all`, `code`, or `tools`	`all`
`MCP_LOG_LEVEL`	Log level: `error`, `warn`, `info`, `debug`	`info`
`MCP_HIDE_SENSITIVE`	Mask sensitive data globally	`false`
`MCP_HTTP_HOST`	HTTP bind host when `MCP_TRANSPORT=http`	`127.0.0.1`
`MCP_HTTP_PORT`	HTTP port when `MCP_TRANSPORT=http`	`3000`
`MCP_HTTP_PATH`	Streamable HTTP endpoint path	`/mcp`
`MCP_HTTP_STATELESS`	Disable session IDs in HTTP mode	`false`
`MCP_HTTP_JSON_RESPONSE`	Prefer JSON responses over SSE	`false`
`MCP_ALLOWED_HOSTS`	Comma-separated Host allowlist for HTTP mode	local defaults
`MCP_ALLOWED_ORIGINS`	Comma-separated Origin allowlist for HTTP mode	unset

Streamable HTTP Mode

KubeView can also run as a standalone Streamable HTTP server for hosted or manually managed deployments.

MCP_TRANSPORT=http \
MCP_HTTP_HOST=127.0.0.1 \
MCP_HTTP_PORT=3000 \
npx -y kubeview-mcp

This starts a Streamable HTTP endpoint at http://127.0.0.1:3000/mcp.

Notes:

stdio remains the default and is still the right choice for MCP client configs such as Claude Desktop, Cursor, and Codex CLI.
MCP_HTTP_STATELESS=true disables session IDs. That is useful for simple request/response patterns, but stateful features such as plan_step history are not meaningful in that mode.
If you bind HTTP mode to 0.0.0.0 or ::, you must set `MCP_ALLOWED_
