## Description

Kai is a Model Context Protocol server that provides a bridge between large language models and Kubernetes clusters, enabling users to manage their Kubernetes resources through natural language. Built in Go using the mcp-go library, it offers tools for pod management (listing, retrieving details, streaming logs, deletion), with a cluster manager that handles connections to multiple Kubernetes contexts. The server exposes a comprehensive API that Claude can use to interact with Kubernetes resources, making it particularly valuable for DevOps workflows where users need to monitor or manipulate container environments without remembering complex kubectl commands.
