Get Deployment Status

Get Deployment Status

Preconditions

Before applying this skill, verify:

• Deployment name is known
• Namespace is specified

Actions

1. Get Deployment Details

Retrieve deployment specification and status.

mcp_tool: kubernetes-mcp-server/resources_get
params:
  apiVersion: apps/v1
  kind: Deployment
  name: $deployment_name
  namespace: $namespace
timeout: 30s

2. Get ReplicaSet Status

Check current and previous ReplicaSets.

mcp_tool: kubernetes-mcp-server/resources_list
params:
  apiVersion: apps/v1
  kind: ReplicaSet
  namespace: $namespace
  labelSelector: app=$app_label
timeout: 30s

3. Get Pod Status

Check status of pods owned by deployment.

mcp_tool: kubernetes-mcp-server/pods_list_in_namespace
params:
  namespace: $namespace
  labelSelector: app=$app_label
timeout: 30s

Success Criteria

The skill succeeds when:

• Deployment exists and is accessible
• Desired replicas equals available replicas
• All pods are in Running state

Failure Handling

If deployment is unhealthy:

1. Return current vs desired replica counts
2. List any failing pods
3. Return recent events for the deployment

Examples

Input Context:

{
  "deployment_name": "nginx",
  "namespace": "default",
  "app_label": "nginx"
}

Output:

{
  "deployment": "nginx",
  "namespace": "default",
  "desired": 3,
  "available": 3,
  "ready": 3,
  "healthy": true,
  "strategy": "RollingUpdate"
}
