What io.github.tonylchang/janus-mcp does

Janus is an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that gives AI assistants a safe, controlled window into your Kubernetes clusters. It runs locally, holds your KUBECONFIG close to its chest, and lets the LLM operate through carefully‑scoped tools — so you get the power of an AI copilot without ever shipping a token, certificate, or API server URL to a third‑party model.
