Install in your client
Paste into the AI you're chatting with — it will figure out the rest
Please install the `kubeview` MCP server into my current AI client (that's you).
Required prerequisites (do these first if not already done):
- **Node.js >= 18** — Node 18 or later required. (https://nodejs.org)
- **Kubernetes cluster access** — Valid kubeconfig pointing at a reachable cluster.
Canonical MCP server config (stdio transport):
- command: `npx`
- args: ["-y","kubeview-mcp"]
Note: Read-only Kubernetes MCP server; optional helm/argo/argocd CLIs enable richer tool coverage.
Add this MCP server to my current client's config in the correct format for you. If you need secrets or credentials I haven't provided, ASK me — do not invent values or leave raw placeholders. After adding it, tell me how to verify the server is connected.Note: Read-only Kubernetes MCP server; optional helm/argo/argocd CLIs enable richer tool coverage.
