How do I debug a failing pod with Kubernetes?
Add the Kubernetes MCP connector once, then paste this prompt into Claude or ChatGPT: "The api pod in namespace prod is crash-looping — get the last 100 lines of logs and describe why". Your AI runs it in Kubernetes.
Do I need to code?
No. You install the connector once (a short config or one click), then ask in plain words. The prompt on this page works as-is.
Which AI assistants work?
Claude (Desktop, Code), Cursor, ChatGPT and other MCP clients. The same prompt works across them.
