Summary
This server plugs Claude into Testkube, the Kubernetes-native testing platform. You get direct access to test workflows, executions, and artifacts running in your cluster. Think triggering test runs, checking execution status, pulling logs, and analyzing results without leaving your AI conversation. If you're running automated tests in Kubernetes and want to troubleshoot failures, kick off regression suites, or investigate flaky tests through natural language, this bridges that gap. Particularly relevant if you're already using Testkube's open source agent or commercial control plane and want AI-assisted testing operations. Ships as a Docker container, connects via stdio, and comes from the Kubeshop team behind Testkube itself.
Keep your Mac awake while Claude Code and 40+ AI agents run. Sleeps when they're idle.

The Open Testing Platform for AI-driven Engineering Teams
Testkube provides a single platform for defining, running and analyzing automated tests, using your existing testing tools/scripts, running in your Kubernetes infrastructure.
Trusted by Engineering Teams at CoreWeave, NVidia, Siemens, T-Mobile, Harvard, SwissCom, and many more..

Why Testkube?
- Run any Tests : Execute any tests/tools/scripts at scale; API, E2E, Performance, Security, Infrastructure, etc. - Examples & Guides.
- Trigger Tests whenever needed: Trigger tests manually, on schedules, from CI/CD/GitOps pipelines, on Kubernetes Events, via the REST API, through MCP, etc. - Read More.
- See Everything: All test results, artifacts, logs and resource-metrics are aggregated for centralized troubleshooting and reporting - Read More.
- Integrate Natively: Testkube integrates with existing tools and infrastructure using Webhooks, the Testkube REST API or the MCP Server - see Integration Examples.
- Testkube AI: Use the Testkube MCP Server or native AI Agents for troubleshooting, analysis, remediation, etc - Read More
- Enterprise Ready: SSO/SCIM, RBAC, Teams, Resource-Groups, Audit-logs, etc. - Read More.
See it in action: Open the interactive TestWorkflows showcase to see how a workflow builds up from a single test to a fully orchestrated pipeline.
Two ways to run Testkube
Open Source Agent - this repo.
MIT-licensed, runs standalone in your Kubernetes cluster, no control plane required. Great for single-cluster setups, self-managed environments, and evaluating Testkube.
- The Helm or CLI Installation will make it easy to deploy the agent into your target cluster.
- The Quickstart is the easiest way to set up Testkube and run your first tests.
Check out the Testkube Open Source Overview to learn more about the open source deployment architecture.
Commercial Control Plane
The control plane connects every Testkube agent across clusters, teams, and environments into a single dashboard:
- One control plane, unlimited clusters - orchestrate and analyze tests across clusters and regions
- Testkube AI - workflow generation, failure investigation, remediation PRs
- Enterprise-grade - SSO/SCIM, RBAC, audit logs, SLA-backed support
Check out the Installation Overview to learn more about different ways to deploy and run the Testkube Control Plane.
The online Trial is the easiest way to try the commercial Testkube offering - Get Started
Marketplace
The Testkube Marketplace provides an open and ready-to-use catalog of Testkube Workflows for Infrastructure Testing - Read More.
