# Cluster API

> Use this tool when you need to programmatically manage Kubernetes clusters across cloud providers, creating, scaling, and monitoring clusters securely and efficiently. It solves problems in AI-assisted infrastructure automation, multi-cloud cluster management, and programmatic access to enterprise Kubernetes infrastructure. The Cluster API takes in high-level tool calls and outputs declarative Kubernetes API operations, providing a secure bridge between AI agents and Kubernetes management clusters.

## Description

This MCP server provides a secure bridge between AI agents and Kubernetes Cluster API (CAPI) management clusters, enabling programmatic creation, scaling, and management of Kubernetes clusters across cloud providers through seven specialized tools including cluster lifecycle operations, node management, and kubeconfig retrieval. Built by jsell-rh using Go with comprehensive security controls, provider abstraction, and asynchronous operation handling, it translates high-level MCP tool calls into declarative Kubernetes API operations while monitoring cluster status until completion. The implementation features AWS provider support with extensible provider interface, robust authentication and input validation, structured error handling with sanitized client responses, and comprehensive observability through Prometheus metrics and structured logging, making it valuable for AI-assisted infrastructure automation, multi-cloud cluster management workflows, and building AI tools that need programmatic access to enterprise Kubernetes infrastructure without manual cluster management interfaces.
