What it does

KubeStellar Console is an open-source web dashboard, released under the Apache License 2.0, for working with multiple Kubernetes clusters together. A hosted demo with built-in sample data lets you explore the interface without a cluster or any install. To work with real clusters you self-host the console and run kc-agent, a small local daemon that connects the browser to your kubeconfig contexts and to AI providers. The agent can use CLI-based coding agents already installed on the machine, as well as self-hosted model servers such as Ollama, and it connects to MCP servers that query cluster state. AI is optional: without a provider configured, the dashboards and missions still work and AI features fall back to rule-based behaviour. The console provides guided install missions for more than 250 CNCF projects, with pre-flight checks, validation, troubleshooting and rollback. It also offers adaptive card suggestions, live event streaming from connected clusters, and a marketplace of community dashboards. An alpha runtime called Stellar adds persistent missions, operational memory and event-driven triggers.

When to use it

You manage more than one Kubernetes cluster and want a single dashboard
You want step-by-step guided installs of CNCF projects with validation and rollback
You want AI assistance for cluster operations from tools you already run locally
You need to run without external AI access, since AI features are optional
