​
Common Use Cases

​
Resource Optimization

Example: @kai analyze pod resource utilization patterns over the last 30 days and provide right-sizing recommendations What you get: Resource waste reduction recommendations with improved pod scheduling efficiency.

​
Security Audit

Example: @kai audit our Kubernetes RBAC configuration and recommend security improvements based on least-privilege principles What you get: Comprehensive security assessment with access control optimization.

​
Autoscaling Optimization

Example: @kai review our Horizontal Pod Autoscaler policies and recommend optimizations for scaling thresholds What you get: Improved scaling responsiveness with reduced over-provisioning during scale-up.

​
GitOps Implementation

Example: @kai design a GitOps workflow for our microservices applications with automated deployment and rollback capabilities What you get: Complete GitOps setup with declarative configuration management and automated synchronization.

​
Available Tools

​
Best Practices

Include cluster context: 
✅ @kai analyze our production EKS cluster in us-west-2 for pod resource optimization and scaling improvements
❌ @kai check our containers
Specify environment details: 
✅ @kai review staging cluster autoscaling policies for our microservices workloads with 10-100 replicas
❌ @kai optimize our Kubernetes
Define success metrics: 
✅ @kai improve cluster resource utilization while maintaining <30 second pod startup time and 99.9% SLA
❌ @kai make our cluster better

​
Configuration

Supported Platforms: Amazon EKS, Google GKE, Azure AKS, Self-managed Kubernetes Required Tools: #alert, #recommend, #dashboard, #chart, #report Connections: Kubernetes clusters with monitoring and metrics access

​
Getting Started

  1. Connect your Kubernetes clusters for comprehensive analysis
  2. Start with: @kai analyze our Kubernetes cluster health and identify top optimization opportunities
  3. Review optimization plan with implementation priorities and expected outcomes
  4. Use dashboards and automated monitoring for continuous cluster optimization
