Cross-cluster operations and context management using kubectl-mcp-server's multi-cluster support.
list_contexts_tool()
kubeconfig_view() # Shows sanitized kubeconfig
CLI:
kubectl-mcp-server context <context-name>All kubectl-mcp-server tools support the
context# Get pods from production cluster get_pods(namespace="default", context="production-cluster")Get pods from staging cluster
get_pods(namespace="default", context="staging-cluster")
# Compare deployment across clusters compare_namespaces( namespace1="production", namespace2="staging", resource_type="deployment", context="production-cluster" )
Query multiple clusters simultaneously:
# Production cluster get_pods(namespace="app", context="prod-us-east") get_pods(namespace="app", context="prod-eu-west")Development cluster
get_pods(namespace="app", context="development")
# Check all clusters for context in ["prod-1", "prod-2", "staging"]: get_nodes(context=context) get_pods(namespace="kube-system", context=context)
For managing cluster lifecycle:
capi_clusters_list_tool(namespace="capi-system")
capi_cluster_get_tool(name="prod-cluster", namespace="capi-system")
capi_cluster_kubeconfig_tool(name="prod-cluster", namespace="capi-system")
capi_machines_list_tool(namespace="capi-system") capi_machinedeployments_list_tool(namespace="capi-system")
capi_machinedeployment_scale_tool( name="prod-cluster-md-0", namespace="capi-system", replicas=5 )
See CONTEXT-SWITCHING.md for detailed patterns.
Deploy charts to specific clusters:
install_helm_chart( name="nginx", chart="bitnami/nginx", namespace="web", context="production-cluster" )list_helm_releases( namespace="web", context="staging-cluster" )
flux_kustomizations_list_tool( namespace="flux-system", context="cluster-1" )flux_reconcile_tool( kind="kustomization", name="apps", namespace="flux-system", context="cluster-2" )
argocd_apps_list_tool(namespace="argocd", context="management-cluster")
# Read from source cluster get_secrets(namespace="app", context="source-cluster")Apply to target cluster (via manifest)
apply_manifest(secret_manifest, namespace="app", context="target-cluster")
With Cilium ClusterMesh or Istio multi-cluster:
cilium_nodes_list_tool(context="cluster-1") istio_proxy_status_tool(context="cluster-2")
Naming Convention: Use descriptive context names
prod-us-east-1staging-eu-west-1Access Control: Different kubeconfigs per environment
Always Specify Context: Avoid accidental cross-cluster operations
# Explicit is better get_pods(namespace="app", context="production")
Cluster Groups: Organize by purpose
