Product tour
See your cluster the way you think about it.
Capabilities
Everything you expect, plus a few things you don't.
Multi-Cluster Management
Connect to multiple Kubernetes clusters simultaneously. Switch between contexts with a single click.
AI Log Analysis
Use Claude Code CLI or OpenAI Codex CLI to analyze logs and troubleshoot directly inside Kubeli.
Resource Diagram
See your cluster topology as a visual diagram. Namespaces, deployments, and pods are shown as nested groups.
Log Streaming
Stream pod logs with search, timestamps, and error highlighting. Optionally pipe them to the AI assistant.
Port Forwarding
Map local ports to pods or services. Open forwarded ports in your browser with one click.
Tauri + Rust
26.8MB download, ~100MB RAM. Uses the OS webview instead of bundling Chromium.
What sets it apart
Built because we wanted them and couldn't find them elsewhere.
AI Agent Integration
Pick Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode, or Droid. Ask about logs, get troubleshooting suggestions, or have the AI explain what's happening in your cluster. Runs locally.
MCP Server for IDE Integration
Kubeli ships with an MCP server. Connect it to VS Code, Cursor, or Claude Code and query your cluster state without leaving your editor.
Corporate Proxy Support
HTTP, HTTPS, and SOCKS5 proxy support. Connect to clusters behind corporate firewalls without extra tooling.
True Native Performance
Tauri 2.9 + Rust backend. Uses the OS webview, not bundled Chromium. 26.8MB app vs ~1.9GB for Lens. ~100MB RAM vs ~350MB.
