Chat with your Kubernetes cluster from the terminal
KubeIntellect is an AI agent platform for Kubernetes operations, and kq is
its terminal client: an interactive REPL that lets you query, debug and triage a
cluster in plain English.
This snap packages the client only. It talks over HTTPS to a KubeIntellect
server (self-hosted via the published container image, or any OpenAI /
Azure OpenAI compatible backend selected with --backend).
Highlights:
- Interactive REPL with streaming responses, slash commands and Tab completion
- Session persistence, resume, full-text search and conversation branching
- Token and cost tracking per session
- Human-in-the-loop approval before any mutating action
- Multi-cluster: switch kubectl context live, or bundle cluster + backend + credentials into named profiles
- Shell completion for bash, zsh and fish (
kq completion <shell>)
After installing, connect the two personal-files interfaces so kq can read
your kubeconfig and keep its own state:
sudo snap connect kubeintellect:dot-kube
sudo snap connect kubeintellect:dot-kube-q
and, if you want the short command name:
sudo snap alias kubeintellect.kq kq
Point it at a backend with KUBE_Q_URL (and KUBE_Q_API_KEY where required),
then run kubeintellect. See https://github.com/MSKazemi/kubeintellect for the
server side and full documentation.
