About aks-mcp
Azure/aks-mcp
A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that enables AI assistants to interact with AKS clusters. It serves as a bridge between AI tools (like Claude, Cursor, and GitHub Copilot) and AKS.
Implements flexible Azure authentication (service principal, workload identity, managed identity) via Azure CLI, with role-based access control (readonly/readwrite/admin) to gate sensitive operations. Provides unified tools for Azure CLI operations, AKS cluster management, network resources, monitoring/diagnostics, and node-level log collection, supporting both modern and legacy tool interfaces for backward compatibility.
About k8s-mcp-server
alexei-led/k8s-mcp-server
K8s-mcp-server is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that enables AI assistants like Claude to securely execute Kubernetes commands. It provides a bridge between language models and essential Kubernetes CLI tools including kubectl, helm, istioctl, and argocd, allowing AI systems to assist with cluster management, troubleshooting, and deployments
# Technical Summary Implements MCP via stdio, HTTP streamable, and SSE transports—with stdio as the Claude Desktop default—enabling bidirectional command execution without polling. Runs as a non-root containerized process with command validation and Unix tool piping (`jq`, `grep`, `sed`) for output processing, plus native cloud provider authentication for AWS EKS, GKE, and Azure AKS. Integrates directly into Claude Desktop through simple JSON configuration, allowing natural-language Kubernetes operations without leaving the interface.
