Best MCP servers for Kubernetes
We found 84 MCP servers for Kubernetes in the catalog; these are the 15 that rank highest. The order comes from our rank, which weighs adoption, freshness, documentation and publisher identity. Nobody can pay for a place on this list. kubeshark/mcp, Dot AI and Kubernetes MCP Server lead it. OneUptime is published by the company that makes it. kubeshark/mcp has the most GitHub stars here (12,107). 15 of the 15 had activity in the last 30 days.
