This Operator is designed to enable K8sGPT within a Kubernetes cluster. It will allow you to create a custom resource that defines the behaviour and scope of a managed K8sGPT workload. Analysis and outputs will also be configurable to enable integration into existing workflows.
helm repo add k8sgpt https://charts.k8sgpt.ai/
helm repo update
helm install release k8sgpt/k8sgpt-operator -n k8sgpt-operator-system --create-namespace

Install the operator from the Installation section.

Create secret:
kubectl create secret generic k8sgpt-sample-secret --from-literal=openai-api-key=$OPENAI_TOKEN -n k8sgpt-operator-system
- Apply the K8sGPT configuration object:

- Once the custom resource has been applied the K8sGPT-deployment will be installed and you will be able to see the Results objects of the analysis after some minutes (if there are any issues in your cluster):
❯ kubectl get results -o json | jq .
{
"apiVersion": "v1",
"items": [
{
"apiVersion": "core.k8sgpt.ai/v1alpha1",
"kind": "Result",
"spec": {
"details": "The error message means that the service in Kubernetes doesn't have any associated endpoints, which should have been labeled with \"control-plane=controller-manager\". \n\nTo solve this issue, you need to add the \"control-plane=controller-manager\" label to the endpoint that matches the service. Once the endpoint is labeled correctly, Kubernetes can associate it with the service, and the error should be resolved.",
The k8sgpt.ai
Operator allows monitoring multiple clusters by providing a kubeconfig
value.
This feature could be fascinating if you want to embrace Platform Engineering such as running a fleet of Kubernetes clusters for multiple stakeholders.
Especially designed for the Cluster API-based infrastructures, k8sgpt.ai
Operator is going to be installed in the same Cluster API management cluster:
this one is responsible for creating the required clusters according to the infrastructure provider for the seed clusters.
Once a Cluster API-based cluster has been provisioned a kubeconfig
according to the naming convention ${CLUSTERNAME}-kubeconfig
will be available in the same namespace:
the conventional Secret data key is value
, this can be used to instruct the k8sgpt.ai
Operator to monitor a remote cluster without installing any resource deployed to the seed cluster.
$: kubectl get clusters
NAME PHASE AGE VERSION
capi-quickstart Provisioned 8s v1.28.0
$: kubectl get secrets
NAME TYPE DATA AGE
capi-quickstart-kubeconfig Opaque 1 8s
A security concern
If your setup requires the least privilege approach, a different
kubeconfig
must be provided since the Cluster API generated one is bounded to theadmin
user which hasclustr-admin
permissions.
Once you have a valid kubeconfig
, a k8sgpt
instance can be created as it follows.
apiVersion: core.k8sgpt.ai/v1alpha1
kind: K8sGPT
metadata:
name: capi-quickstart
namespace: default
spec:
ai:
anonymized: true
backend: openai
language: english
model: gpt-3.5-turbo
secret:
key: api_key
name: my_openai_secret
kubeconfig:
key: value
name: capi-quickstart-kubeconfig
Once applied the k8sgpt.ai
Operator will create the k8sgpt.ai
Deployment by using the seed cluster kubeconfig
defined in the field /spec/kubeconfig
.
The resulting Result
objects will be available in the same Namespace where the k8sgpt.ai
instance has been deployed,
accordingly labelled with the following keys:
k8sgpts.k8sgpt.ai/name
: thek8sgpt.ai
instance Namek8sgpts.k8sgpt.ai/namespace
: thek8sgpt.ai
instance Namespacek8sgpts.k8sgpt.ai/backend
: the AI backend (if specified)
Thanks to these labels, the results can be filtered according to the specified monitored cluster,
without polluting the underlying cluster with the k8sgpt.ai
CRDs and consuming seed compute workloads,
as well as keeping confidentiality about the AI backend driver credentials.
In case of missing
/spec/kubeconfig
field,k8sgpt.ai
Operator will track the cluster on which has been deployed: this is possible by mounting the providedServiceAccount
.

Amazon Bedrock
-
Install the operator from the Installation section.
-
When running on AWS, you have a number of ways to give permission to the managed K8sGPT workload to access Amazon Bedrock.
- Grant access to Bedrock using the Kubernetes Service Account. This is the best practices method for assigning permissions to Kubernetes Pods. There are a few ways to do this:
- On Amazon EKS, using EKS Pod Identity
- On Amazon EKS, using IAM Roles for Service Accounts (IRSA)
- On self-managed Kubernetes, using IAM Roles for Service Accounts (IRSA) with the Pod Identity Webhook
- Grant access to Bedrock using AWS credentials in a Kubernetes Secret. Note this goes against AWS best practices and should be used with caution.
To grant access to Bedrock using a Kubernetes Service account, create an IAM role with Bedrock permissions. An example policy is included below:
{
"Version": "2012-10-17",
"Statement": [
{
"Effect": "Allow",
"Action": [
"bedrock:InvokeModel",
"bedrock:InvokeModelWithResponseStream"
],
"Resource": "*"
}
]
}
To grant access to Bedrock using AWS credentials in a Kubernetes secret you can create a secret:
kubectl create secret generic bedrock-sample-secret --from-literal=AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID="$(echo $AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID)" --from-literal=AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY="$(echo $AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY)" -n k8sgpt-operator-system
- Apply the K8sGPT configuration object:
kubectl apply -f - << EOF
apiVersion: core.k8sgpt.ai/v1alpha1
kind: K8sGPT
metadata:
name: k8sgpt-sample
namespace: k8sgpt-operator-system
spec:
ai:
enabled: true
secret:
name: bedrock-sample-secret
model: anthropic.claude-v2
region: eu-central-1
backend: amazonbedrock
noCache: false
repository: ghcr.io/k8sgpt-ai/k8sgpt
version: v0.3.41
EOF
LocalAI
-
Install the operator from the Installation section.
-
Follow the LocalAI installation guide to install LocalAI. (No OpenAI secret is required when using LocalAI).
-
Apply the K8sGPT configuration object:
kubectl apply -f - << EOF
apiVersion: core.k8sgpt.ai/v1alpha1
kind: K8sGPT
metadata:
name: k8sgpt-local-ai
namespace: default
spec:
ai:
enabled: true
model: ggml-gpt4all-j
backend: localai
baseUrl: http://local-ai.local-ai.svc.cluster.local:8080/v1
noCache: false
repository: ghcr.io/k8sgpt-ai/k8sgpt
version: v0.3.41
EOF
Note: ensure that the value of baseUrl
is a properly constructed DNS name for the LocalAI Service. It should take the form: http://local-ai.<namespace_local_ai_was_installed_in>.svc.cluster.local:8080/v1
.
- Same as step 4. in the example above.
ImagePullSecrets
You can use custom k8sgpt image by modifying `repository`, `version`, `imagePullSecrets`. `version` actually works as image tag.kubectl apply -f - << EOF
apiVersion: core.k8sgpt.ai/v1alpha1
