Preview access · not provider authentication

The vk_preview_* token belongs to Vinkius preview infrastructure. It lets Claude discover and display the capabilities of Cilium, so you can see the experience inside your AI.

It does not authenticate your account with Cilium. Actions requiring credentials or live account data may not run until you activate the Connector and authorize the service.

FAQ

Questions Cilium owners ask.

  • 01

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

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

  • 02

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

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

  • 03

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

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