What It Does
Gke Cost Analysis packages a focused devops & cloud workflow for an AI agent. Answer natural language questions and perform analysis on GKE cluster and workload costs using BigQuery billing exports, cost allocation data, and live cluster monitoring metrics. Use when querying GKE costs across projects, namespaces, or workloads, analyzing billing reports in BigQuery (`bq`), checking cluster cost budgets (`gcloud billing`), or diagnosing cost drivers like pod requests vs. actual utilization (`kubectl top`). Don't use for applying cost optimization changes, creating rightsizing manifests (VPA/MPA), or selecting ComputeClasses (use gke-cost-optimization instead). It is best suited to users who can review the resulting actions and provide only the accounts, files, or command access needed for the task. It is not a substitute for human approval on destructive, financial, security-sensitive, or public-facing actions.
