### Goose CLI

[Goose CLI](https://blog.marcnuri.com/goose-on-machine-ai-agent-cli-introduction) is the easiest (and cheapest) way to get rolling with artificial intelligence (AI) agents.

#### Using npm

If you have npm installed, this is the fastest way to get started with `kubernetes-mcp-server`.

Open your goose `config.yaml` and add the mcp server to the list of `mcpServers`:

Usage


Quick Reference


Name
Github Containers Kubernetes Mcp Server
Function
A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for Kubernetes and OpenShift
Available Tools
The Kubernetes MCP server supports enabling or disabling specific groups of tools and functionalities (tools, resources, prompts, and so on) via the --toolsets command-line flag or toolsets configuration option. This allows you to control which Kubernetes functionalities are available to your AI tools. Enabling only the toolsets you need can help reduce the context size and improve the LLM's tool selection accuracy.
