# Investigate Kubernetes network incidents through MCP with Kubeshark

Query live and historical Kubernetes network traffic through Kubeshark's MCP server when an agent needs packet-level evidence, API payloads, or service-path traces for incident response.

## Prerequisites

Kubeshark deployed in the target Kubernetes cluster and an MCP-compatible client

## Installation

Use the upstream install or setup path that matches your environment:
- brew install kubeshark

Requirements and caveats from upstream:
