# 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.
|
||||
**Mission control for Kubernetes hosts, exposed to LLM agents through MCP.**
|
||||
|
||||
TeleMcp deploys a standard observability stack onto a Linux Kubernetes host via **Ansible + Helm**, then surfaces metrics, logs, and cluster state through a read-only **MCP bridge** so an LLM agent can bootstrap, monitor, triage, and operate the box.
|
||||
|
||||
> For project goals, scope, and design principles, see **[INTENT.md](INTENT.md)**.
|
||||
|
||||
## 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)
|
||||
|
||||
| Component | Namespace | Role |
|
||||
|-----------|-----------|------|
|
||||
| **kube-prometheus-stack** | `monitoring` | Prometheus, Alertmanager, Grafana, node-exporter, kube-state-metrics |
|
||||
| **Loki + Promtail** | `logging` | Log aggregation and shipping |
|
||||
| **OpenTelemetry Collector** | `observability` | Optional OTLP fan-out to Prometheus and Loki |
|
||||
| **mcp-telemetry-bridge** | `mcp` | FastAPI service exposing MCP resources, tools, and 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)
|
||||
### 2) Smoke tests
|
||||
|
||||
From any machine with a `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 .
|
||||
curl http://localhost:8080/healthz
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### 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`
|
||||
### 3) Point your LLM agent
|
||||
|
||||
Configure your agent's MCP client to the bridge endpoint (ClusterIP, Ingress, or port-forward).
|
||||
|
||||
**Implemented tools:**
|
||||
|
||||
| Tool | Description |
|
||||
|------|-------------|
|
||||
| `promql.query` | Run a PromQL expression against Prometheus |
|
||||
| `loki.query` | Run a LogQL query against Loki |
|
||||
| `k8s.get` | Fetch Kubernetes objects (pods, nodes, deployments, etc.) |
|
||||
| `k8s.events` | List cluster or namespace events |
|
||||
| `inventory.snapshot` | JSON snapshot of nodes, namespaces, and workloads |
|
||||
|
||||
**Saved resources** (via `/mcp/resource?uri=...`):
|
||||
|
||||
- `res://dashboards/top-pods-by-cpu.promql`
|
||||
- `res://dashboards/pod-restarts.promql`
|
||||
- `res://dashboards/warn-events.logql`
|
||||
|
||||
> The bridge currently exposes an HTTP schema approximation (`/mcp/schema`, `/tools/...`). Full MCP transport (stdio/SSE) is planned — see [INTENT.md](INTENT.md).

## Security
|
||||
- MCP bridge ServiceAccount is read-only (RBAC get/list/watch)
|
||||
- Optional NetworkPolicy limits egress/ingress
|
||||
- Consider mTLS/OIDC if exposing outside the cluster
|
||||
|
||||
- MCP bridge ServiceAccount is read-only (`get` / `list` / `watch` only)
|
||||
- NetworkPolicy limits bridge egress to Prometheus and Loki
|
||||
- Consider mTLS or OIDC if exposing the bridge outside the cluster
|
||||
|
||||
## Current limitations
|
||||
|
||||
See [INTENT.md — Current State](INTENT.md#current-state-as-of-initial-scaffold) for the full list. Notable gaps:
|
||||
|
||||
- Bridge container image is a placeholder (`ghcr.io/example/telemcp-bridge`)
|
||||
- No Alertmanager integration in the bridge yet
|
||||
- Host-level signals (systemd, certs, firewall) are deferred to a future DaemonSet sidecar
