Learn how to build AI agents for Kubernetes operations and governance in this conference talk that introduces kagent, a new CNCF project for creating declarative Kubernetes-native AI agents. Discover how to rapidly construct custom AI agents for essential operational and management tasks, moving beyond manual cluster management to automated, intelligent operations. Explore the integration of Kyverno, the Kubernetes-native policy engine for validation, mutation, generation, and cleanup, with AI capabilities through kagent using the emerging Model Context Protocol (MCP). Understand how this combination enables intelligent policy recommendations and automation, transforming how cloud native environments are managed and governed through agentic AI solutions.
