About OpenCost (K8s Cost) MCP Server

Connect your OpenCost instance to any AI agent to gain real-time visibility into your Kubernetes spending and infrastructure efficiency through natural language.

LlamaIndex agents combine OpenCost (K8s Cost) tool responses with indexed documents for comprehensive, grounded answers. Connect 6 tools through Vinkius and query live data alongside vector stores and SQL databases in a single turn. ideal for hybrid search, data enrichment, and analytical workflows.

What you can do

  • Workload Allocation — Query costs and resources allocated to clusters, nodes, namespaces, controllers, and pods using get_allocation.
  • Asset Inspection — Retrieve backing cost data for physical infrastructure like Nodes, Disks, and Load Balancers via get_assets.
  • Cloud Billing Integration — Access AWS CUR, Azure Export, and GCP Billing data directly with get_cloud_cost to reconcile K8s costs with provider bills.
  • Third-Party Costs — Track external service expenses (e.g., Datadog, MongoDB Atlas) using custom cost timeseries and total summary tools.
  • Granular Filtering — Aggregate data by labels, annotations, or service levels to understand exactly where your budget is going.

The OpenCost (K8s Cost) MCP Server exposes 6 tools through the Vinkius. Connect it to LlamaIndex in under two minutes — credentials fully managed, no infrastructure to provision, no vendor lock-in. Your configuration, your data, your control.
