Kubernetes AI Copilot
The Kubernetes AI Copilot is a built-in chat assistant that lets you query and troubleshoot your cluster in plain English. Ask a question, and the copilot translates it into the appropriate Kubernetes command, runs it against your cluster, and returns a readable answer — no need to leave the Atmosly UI or remember kubectl syntax.
Opening the Copilot
From a cluster's Nodegroups & Pods page, click the assistant button (robot icon) in the bottom-right corner. A chat panel slides in from the right, scoped to the cluster you're viewing.
Using It
- Type a question into the message box, or pick one of the suggested prompts to get started, such as:
- "List all pods in the cluster"
- "Show me all nodes and their status"
- "Get all deployments in the kube-system namespace"
- "Show services in the default namespace"
- Send the message. The copilot's response streams back in real time.
- Continue the conversation — follow-up questions keep the context of the current session.
What You Can Ask
- List resources — pods, nodes, deployments, services, and more
- Check status — the health or state of a specific resource
- Describe resources — detailed information about a namespace, config map, or object
- Inspect logs and events — recent activity for troubleshooting
- Troubleshoot — for example, "Why is this pod in CrashLoopBackOff?" or "How much memory is the cluster using?"
Conversation History
Past conversations are kept so you can revisit them. Each conversation thread is scoped to your organization and the specific cluster, and persists across sessions, making it easy to pick up where you left off.
If Something Goes Wrong
If the assistant service can't be reached or your session has expired, the copilot shows a clear message in the chat and lets you retry. Closing the panel cancels an in-progress request.
For automated detection and remediation of cluster problems, pair the copilot with the SRE Agent, which proactively surfaces issues and recommends fixes.
