+# TeleMcp
+
+Telemetry + MCP bridge that auto-deploys on a Linux-based Kubernetes host via **Ansible + Helm**.
+It exposes read-only metrics, logs, and k8s object state through an **MCP server** so an LLM agent can bootstrap, monitor, and operate the host.
+
+## Components
+- **kube-prometheus-stack** (Prometheus, Alertmanager, Grafana, node-exporter, kube-state-metrics)
+- **Loki + Promtail** (logs)
+- **OpenTelemetry Collector** (optional fan-out)
+- **mcp-telemetry-bridge** (FastAPI service exposing MCP resources/tools/prompts)
+
+## Quick Start
+
+### 0) Prereqs
+- Ubuntu 24.04 host with k8s (k3s or kubeadm) reachable and `kubectl` context configured
+- Ansible 2.15+ on your control machine
+- Helm 3 on the host (Ansible role installs if missing)
+
+### 1) Run Ansible
+```bash
+cd ansible
+ansible-playbook -i inventories/local.ini playbook.yml
+```
+
+### 2) Smoke tests (from any machine with kubectl context)
+```bash
+kubectl get pods -n monitoring
+kubectl get pods -n logging
+kubectl get pods -n mcp
+kubectl port-forward -n mcp svc/mcp-telemetry-bridge 8080:80
+curl http://localhost:8080/mcp/schema | jq .
+```
+
+### 3) Point your LLM Agent
+Configure your agent's MCP client to the service endpoint (ClusterIP/Ingress).
+Use tools:
+- `promql.query`
+- `loki.query`
+- `k8s.get`
+- `k8s.events`
+- `inventory.snapshot`
+
+## Repo layout
+```
+telemcp/
+  ansible/
+  helm/
+  mcp-telemetry-bridge/
+  environments/
+```
+
+## Security
+- MCP bridge ServiceAccount is read-only (RBAC get/list/watch)
+- Optional NetworkPolicy limits egress/ingress
+- Consider mTLS/OIDC if exposing outside the cluster
