k10s lets you click pods, search clusters, and run AI without typing.
In brief
k10s lets you click pods, search clusters, and run AI without typing. k10s is a click-and-search Kubernetes terminal UI with built-in AI that works with your cluster without memorizing commands. Originally reported by GitHub.
k10s terminal UI
k10s is a click-and-search Kubernetes terminal UI with built-in AI that already knows your cluster, namespace and selected object.
Why k10s
k10s opens instantly with zero watches and shows actions for the selected object without memorized keys.
AI prompt context
ctrl+a asks in plain english about your cluster with context injected into the prompt.
Self-updating
k10s updates itself with checksum-verified atomic releases that offer restarts.
k9s to k10s
k10s is a narrower, mouse-and-keyboard focused alternative to k9s with built-in ai.
Try it in 30 seconds
k10s ships an offline demo backend with fake data that's clearly labelled as sample.
Install options
k10s installs via curl, go install, or git clone with version-stamped binaries.
Resource groups
k10s groups resources into workloads, network, config, storage, rbac, cluster and custom resources.
Logs and shell
k10s shows live logs, shell sessions, and port-forwarding with one key.
AI integration
k10s uses claude-sonnet-5 as default ai with cluster context injected into prompts.
Eight themes
k10s offers eight built-in themes plus custom themes with live previews.
k9s comparison
k10s is mouse-and-keyboard focused while k9s is keyboard-first with command-driven discovery.
Keybindings
k10s uses ctrl+p for search, ctrl+a for ai prompts, and z for zoom.
Config and themes
k10s saves themes, namespace, and folded sidebar groups to ~/.k10s/config.yaml.
No cluster needed
k10s runs with a built-in sample cluster for demo purposes without requiring a real cluster.
Coming from k9s
k10s was built to be a simpler alternative to k9s with built-in ai.
The bottom line
k10s is a click-and-search Kubernetes terminal UI with built-in AI that works with your cluster without memorizing commands.
