New Feature

Built-in AI Assistant
Zero Cloud. Zero API Keys.

Diagnose Kubernetes issues, explain resources, and generate YAML — all powered by local AI models running entirely on your machine. No data ever leaves your device.

What Can the AI Do?

Four powerful modes designed for real-world Kubernetes workflows.

Deep Diagnose

Analyzes unhealthy pods by correlating container logs, Kubernetes events, and resource specs. Identifies root causes and recommends actionable fixes.

  • CrashLoopBackOff, OOMKilled, ImagePullBackOff
  • Log + event + spec correlation
  • Severity rating and fix commands

Explain Resources

Get plain-English explanations of any Kubernetes resource. Understand what a Deployment, Service, or Ingress is doing and why it's configured that way.

  • One-click from any Detail View
  • Configuration insights
  • Best practice recommendations

YAML Generator

Describe what you need in natural language and get production-ready Kubernetes YAML. Apply it directly from the AI panel.

  • Natural language to YAML
  • Production-ready output
  • Apply directly from AI panel

Quick Ask

Ask any Kubernetes question. Differences between resources, how to configure policies, troubleshooting tips — instant answers without leaving QwikKube.

  • No context needed — just ask
  • K8s documentation knowledge base
  • Instant responses

How It Works

Get started in three simple steps. No accounts, no API keys, no configuration.

1

Download a Model

Choose from three models — Lite (1.7B), Default (4B), or Advanced (Gemma 3n). One-click download from Settings.

2

Ask Anything

Open the AI panel, attach resource context from any Detail View, or just type a question directly.

3

Get Answers Instantly

Streaming responses with chain-of-thought reasoning. See the AI think through the problem step by step.

Your Data Never Leaves Your Machine

Unlike cloud-based AI tools, QwikKube's AI runs entirely in-process. Your cluster data, logs, and configurations are never transmitted to any external server.

No API Keys Required

No OpenAI, Anthropic, or any other API key. The model runs locally.

Zero Data Egress

No network calls during inference. Works completely offline after model download.

Air-Gap Compliant

Perfect for restricted environments. Side-load models for fully air-gapped clusters.

Native Inference Engine

Powered by llama.cpp — optimized C++ inference with Metal/CUDA acceleration. No Python, no external processes.
