What is the Cilium (eBPF Networking) MCP Server?

Connect to your Cilium agent to monitor and manage your Kubernetes networking stack using eBPF technology through natural language.

What you can do

Cluster Visibility — Retrieve detailed information about cluster nodes known to the local Cilium agent.
Health Monitoring — Check the status of the Cilium daemon, container runtime, datastore, and Hubble connectivity.
Configuration Management — Inspect and update daemon configuration options and datapath modes on the fly.
Endpoint Control — List, inspect, and create networking endpoints to manage container connectivity and security.

How it works

Subscribe to this server
Enter your Cilium API URL
Start managing your eBPF networking from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client

Who is this for?

DevOps & Platform Engineers — quickly audit cluster health and node status without complex CLI commands
Security Teams — inspect endpoint labels and states to verify network policy enforcement
SREs — troubleshoot connectivity issues by querying daemon configuration and health metrics

Why Cursor?

Cursor's Agent mode turns Cilium (eBPF Networking) into an in-editor superpower. Ask Cursor to generate code using live data from Cilium (eBPF Networking) and it fetches, processes, and writes. all in a single agentic loop. 6 tools appear alongside file editing and terminal access, creating a unified development environment grounded in real-time information.

—
Agent mode turns Cursor into an autonomous coding assistant that can read files, run commands, and call MCP tools without switching context
—
Cursor's Composer feature can generate entire files using real-time data fetched through MCP. no copy-pasting from external dashboards
—
MCP tools appear alongside built-in tools like file reading and terminal access, creating a unified agentic environment
—
VS Code extension compatibility means your existing workflow, keybindings, and extensions all work alongside MCP tools

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Can I check if the Cilium daemon is connected to Kubernetes and Hubble?

Yes. Use the get_healthz tool. It returns the status of all critical components including Kubernetes connectivity, Hubble, and the container runtime.

How do I retrieve the configuration of a specific network endpoint?

You can use the get_endpoint tool by providing the endpoint ID (e.g., 'cilium-local:123'). It will return addressing, labels, and current state metadata.

Is it possible to update the Cilium daemon configuration via this agent?

Yes, the patch_config tool allows you to update daemon specification options, which triggers a regeneration of datapath components.

What is Agent mode and why does it matter for MCP?

Agent mode is Cursor's autonomous execution mode where the AI can perform multi-step tasks: reading files, editing code, running terminal commands, and calling MCP tools. Without Agent mode, Cursor operates in a simpler ask-and-answer mode that doesn't support tool calling. Always ensure you're in Agent mode when working with MCP servers.

Where does Cursor store MCP configuration?

Cursor looks for MCP server configurations in a mcp.json file. You can configure servers at the project level (.cursor/mcp.json in your project root) or globally (~/.cursor/mcp.json). Project-level configs take precedence.

Can Cursor use MCP tools in inline edits?

No. MCP tools are only available in Agent mode through the chat panel. Inline completions and Tab suggestions do not trigger MCP tool calls. This is by design. tool calls require user visibility and approval.

How do I verify MCP tools are loaded?

Open Settings → Features → MCP and look for your server name. A green indicator means the server is connected. You can also check Agent mode's available tools by clicking the tools dropdown in the chat panel.
