What it does

Wraps kubectl to give CodeBuddy access to your Kubernetes clusters. The agent can inspect workloads, view logs, apply manifests, scale deployments, and debug failing pods.

Prerequisites

Install kubectl:

# macOS
brew install kubectl

# Linux
curl -LO "https://dl.k8s.io/release/$(curl -L -s https://dl.k8s.io/release/stable.txt)/bin/linux/amd64/kubectl"
sudo install -o root -g root -m 0755 kubectl /usr/local/bin/kubectl

# Windows
winget install Kubernetes.kubectl

Verify cluster access:

kubectl config current-context
kubectl get nodes

The skill uses your active kubeconfig context. Set KUBECONFIG to use a specific config file.

Capabilities

• Pods — list, describe, logs, exec, port-forward
• Deployments — list, scale, rollout status, restart
• Services — list, describe, endpoints
• Manifests — apply, delete, diff
• Debugging — events, describe, top (resource usage)
• Namespaces — switch, list, create

Example prompts

• “Show all pods in the production namespace that aren’t ready”
• “Get the logs from the auth-service pod for the last 30 minutes”
• “Scale the web-frontend deployment to 5 replicas”
• “What events happened in the default namespace in the last hour?”
