LLMKube

The Kubernetes operator for self-hosted LLM inference

Run models across NVIDIA, Apple Silicon, and AMD from one spec. Your models. Your hardware. Your rules.

Three things no other Kubernetes LLM operator combines: Apple Silicon inference as native macOS processes, not containers (the Metal Agent runs llama-server, mlx-server, and vllm-swift with full Metal GPU access); heterogeneous fleets of NVIDIA, AMD (Vulkan), Intel, and Apple Silicon hosts under one operator and one set of CRDs; and fail-closed policy routing between local and external models via ModelRouter.

Who it's for: platform and AI-ops teams running on-prem, mixed-hardware, or air-gapped inference. If you want one model on one laptop, Ollama is simpler.

Plus Foreman: an agentic harness that runs coding agents on your own fleet. It has shipped real fixes to this repo.

Status: pre-1.0. Every CRD is v1alpha1, and fields can change between minor releases. See Project status for what CI tests and how often releases ship.

The Problem

You want to run LLMs on your own infrastructure. Maybe it's for data privacy, cost control, air-gapped compliance, or you just don't want to send every request to OpenAI.

So you set up llama.cpp. It works great on one machine. Then you need to scale it, monitor it, manage model versions, handle GPU scheduling across nodes, expose an API, and somehow make your Mac's Metal GPU and your Linux server's NVIDIA cards work together. And the moment you want any of that traffic to sometimes hand off to Claude or GPT, you're building another routing layer.

Suddenly you're building an entire platform instead of shipping your product.

LLMKube is a Kubernetes operator that turns LLM deployment into a two-resource YAML problem. Define a Model and an InferenceService, and the operator handles downloading, caching, GPU scheduling, health checks, scaling, and exposing an OpenAI-compatible API. Add a ModelRouter on top and the same cluster does policy-aware routing between your local models and external providers (Anthropic / OpenAI / LiteLLM). A rule that matches requests labeled pii/phi (by header) can route only to local-tier backends; content detection is planned (#441).

Architecture

Two cooperating processes. An in-cluster controller owns Kubernetes-side desired state. An out-of-cluster metal-agent (optional, only needed for Apple Silicon hosts) owns OS-level process supervision and registers its authenticated ingress back into the cluster; the controller fronts that ingress with an in-cluster relay, so Metal InferenceServices are ordinary Services.

Loading

Same operator manages Linux/GPU pods and Apple Silicon hosts; both surface as InferenceService objects to kubectl.

See it in action

Live asciinema cast on llmkube.com/docs/getting-started: deploy a model on a kind cluster, stream tokens from the OpenAI-compatible endpoint, and run the built-in throughput benchmark in under a minute (recorded with the model weights already downloaded).

---

Quick Start

# Install the CLI
brew install defilantech/tap/llmkube

# Install the operator on any K8s cluster
helm repo add llmkube https://defilantech.github.io/LLMKube
helm install llmkube llmkube/llmkube --namespace llmkube-system --create-namespace

# Deploy a model (one command, uses catalog-tested defaults)
llmkube deploy phi-4-mini

# Query it (OpenAI-compatible)
kubectl port-forward svc/phi-4-mini 8080:8080 &
curl http://localhost:8080/v1/chat/completions \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"messages":[{"role":"user","content":"Hello!"}],"max_tokens":100}'

That's it. The operator creates the Deployment and the Service, the pod's init container downloads the model, and llama.cpp serves an OpenAI-compatible API. Works with the OpenAI Python/Node/Go SDKs, LangChain, and LlamaIndex out of the box.

The first deploy downloads the weights (about 2.8 GB for phi-4-mini) into a llmkube-model-cache PersistentVolumeClaim that the operator creates in your namespace (100Gi request by default). That claim is not removed with the model or by helm uninstall. On a slow link the download takes several minutes; llmkube deploy waits up to 10 minutes by default (--timeout).

Want GPU acceleration? Add --gpu:

llmkube deploy llama-3.1-8b --gpu --gpu-count 1

On a Mac that has the Metal Agent installed, --gpu picks Metal; add --accelerator cuda to target NVIDIA nodes.

Project status

• Pre-1.0 API: every CRD is v1alpha1. Fields can change between minor releases; breaking changes are listed under "BREAKING CHANGES" in the CHANGELOG (0.9.0 and 0.10.0 are recent examples).
• What CI covers: on every pull request the default end-to-end job deploys the operator to a kind cluster and checks Model and InferenceService reconciliation, the CLI catalog, and ModelRouter proxy routing against a stub backend. It runs no real model and no GPU. GPU paths are exercised on lab hardware, and the lab builds record what ran, on which machines, and when. No component carries a formal stability level yet. Newer features state their limits in their guides: for example, multi-node inference is vLLM only, and the ModelRouter Gateway and AgentGateway data planes support a subset of the proxy's routing strategies.
• Kubernetes versions: CI runs kind from its latest download link with kind's default node image, neither pinned (Kubernetes v1.37.0 in November 2026), plus a best-effort MicroShift job. Older versions are not tested in CI. Some features need newer clusters: DRA needs 1.34+, and oci:// model sources need 1.36+.
• Releases ship often, sometimes several a week, and new features land in patch releases (0.10.x). See the latest release for what is current.
• First-time contributors have landed real features: Intel oneAPI / SYCL GPU support arrived as PR #557 from a first-time contributor, and configurable GPU resource names for AMD/Vulkan/Intel scheduling as #709 from a contributor new to the repo, who followed with vendor-neutral DRA scheduling in #750.
• Foreman, the agentic harness, contributes code to this repository: its first two merged PRs landed in May 2026 (#508, #588), with more Foreman-authored PRs merging since.

The Metal Agent

We know of no other Kubernetes LLM operator that does this.

Most Kubernetes tools run inference inside containers. That works fine on Linux with NVIDIA GPUs. But Apple Silicon's Metal GPU can't be accessed from inside a container, so Kubernetes tools either ignore Macs or fall back to slow CPU-only inference.

LLMKube's Metal Agent inverts the model. Instead of stuffing inference into a container, the Metal Agent runs as a native macOS process that:

1. Watches the Kubernetes API for InferenceService resources whose Model sets hardware.accelerator: metal
2. Spawns the engine natively on macOS with full Metal GPU access (llama-server by default)
3. Registers its authenticated ingress back into Kubernetes; the controller fronts it with an in-cluster relay, so the rest of your cluster calls an ordinary Service

The model runs on the Mac's unified memory with no container VM in between; the agent budgets 67% to 75% of it for models by default (--memory-fraction). Kubernetes handles orchestration. The same CRD works across NVIDIA, Intel, and Apple Silicon by selecting the accelerator in the model spec.

This means you can build a heterogeneous cluster: NVIDIA GPUs in the cloud for heavy workloads, Mac Studios on-prem for low-latency inference, all managed by the same Kubernetes operator with the same CRDs.

brew install defilantech/tap/llmkube defilantech/tap/llmkube-metal-agent  # on the Mac
llmkube metal token create <mac>   # where you have cluster access; prints a single-use join string
llmkube metal join <join-string>   # on the Mac

llmkube metal join installs and starts the agent as a LaunchAgent and waits until the cluster reports the Mac Reachable; after that, llmkube deploy <model> --accelerator metal serves on it, and the macOS guide covers networking (LAN, Tailscale, WireGuard), memory budgets and troubleshooting.

Composition: ModelRouter

Model and InferenceService give you self-hosted inference. ModelRouter puts a policy-aware OpenAI-compatible endpoint in front of both your local InferenceServices and external providers, with budgets, classifications, and fail-closed semantics enforced at the cluster level instead of in application code.

The motivating use case: an agent running on a local model can selectively hand off specific steps to Claude or GPT without the agent code knowing or caring where the model lives, while a fail-closed platform rule keeps requests labeled pii/phi (by header) on local-tier backends. Content detection is planned (#441).

apiVersion: inference.llmkube.dev/v1alpha1
kind: ModelRouter
metadata:
  name: coding-router
spec:
  backends:
    - name: local-coder
      inferenceServiceRef: { name: qwen3-coder }
      tier: local
      capabilities: [code, tools]
    - name: cloud-opus
      external:
        provider: anthropic
        model: claude-opus-4-7
        credentialsSecretRef: { name: anthropic-key }
      tier: cloud
  rules:
    - name: pii-stays-local
      match: { dataClassification: [pii] }
      route: { backends: [local-coder] }
      failClosed: true
      timeout: 8s
    - name: complex-to-cloud
      match: { taskComplexity: complex }
      route:
        backends: [cloud-opus, local-coder]
        strategy: primary-fallback
      timeout: 90s
  defaultRoute: local-coder

Three properties worth calling out:

• Fail-closed for requests labeled pii/phi. A request carries its classification in a header (x-llmkube-classification by default); content detection is planned (#441). Apply-time validation rejects a rule that matches pii/phi unless it is fail-closed and routes only to local-tier backends, and the proxy repeats the check on every request: if the local backends can't serve it, the answer is HTTP 503, never a fall-through to cloud. Rules match in order and the default route is not fail-closed, so put the pii/phi rule ahead of rules that send traffic to cloud and keep defaultRoute local.
• Per-rule and per-backend timeout budgets. Strict policy tiers fast-fail; lenient tiers stay patient. The proxy applies context.WithTimeout per attempt, so a slow primary doesn't eat the fallback's budget. Resolution order: rule.timeout || backend.timeout || proxy default.
• OpenAI-compatible streaming endpoint. Plug it into LangGraph, OpenAI Agents SDK, Anthropic SDK, Cline, Aider, or any framework that speaks the OpenAI API. The agent runtime doesn't need to know it's talking to a router.

Foreman

Model and InferenceService give you self-hosted inference. ModelRouter gives you policy-aware routing. Foreman gives you an orchestrator for agentic workloads on top of both.

Foreman is an opt-in add-on that ships its own Helm chart, its own API group (foreman.llmkube.dev), and its own controller and node-agent binaries. It introduces four CRDs (Workload, AgenticTask, Agent, FleetNode), a capability-aware scheduler, and a native Go agent loop that runs OpenAI function-calling against your local inference endpoints. The v0.1 shape is a linear pipeline: coder agent on one node produces a branch, verifier agent (gate) on another node runs make fmt vet lint test, reviewer agent(s) on a third node read the diff against the issue body and score it.

apiVersion: foreman.llmkube.dev/v1alpha1
kind: Workload
metadata:
  name: fix-small-bugs
  namespace: default
spec:
  intent: "Fix small open issues"
  repo: defilantech/LLMKube
  issues: [510, 526, 449]
  coderAgentRef:    { name: qwen36-35b-carnice-mtp-coder }
  verifierAgentRef: { name: shadowstack-gate }
  reviewerAgentRefs:
    - { name: qwen36-35b-a3b-reviewer }
    - { name: devstral-24b-reviewer }

kubectl apply and watch the fleet land DCO-signed branches on a fork. Foreman's debut branches landed as upstream PRs #508 and #588 in May 2026, and the pipeline has merged Foreman-authored PRs ever since.

Foreman is meant for shops where on-prem hardware, sovereignty constraints, or sheer batch scale make the agentic-coding cloud-API model a poor fit. It is not a replacement for individual-developer tools like Cursor or aider; it is the control plane below those tools, for when you want a fleet doing the work instead of one developer.

How Is This Different?

LLMKube is for teams that want Kubernetes-managed LLM inference across heterogeneous hardware. What it combines:

• Apple Silicon in the same control plane as your GPU nodes. The Metal Agent runs engines as native macOS processes, and the controller fronts each one with an ordinary Service, so a Mac and an NVIDIA node both show up as InferenceService objects.
• Several runtimes under one CRD. llama.cpp, vLLM and SGLang in-cluster, MLX engines and Ollama on Macs (see Features for the full list).
• Local and external models behind one endpoint. ModelRouter routes between your InferenceServices and Anthropic, OpenAI, Bedrock, Vertex AI or LiteLLM backends, with per-rule timeouts and fallback.

If you just need to run a model on one machine, Ollama is simpler. If you need maximum throughput on NVIDIA-only clusters, vLLM on its own is faster. How LLMKube compares sets it against KubeAI, llm-d, Ollama and the NVIDIA NIM Operator capability by capability, and says when each of them is the better pick.

Versus newer adjacent projects:

• KubeAI: similar Kubernetes-operator scope, focused on autoscaling vLLM and Ollama in Linux containers; it scales to zero with request queuing, which LLMKube does not do today. LLMKube adds Apple Silicon through the Metal Agent, a model catalog CLI, and ModelRouter for routing across local and external models.
• llm-d: distributed inference for very large models on datacenter accelerators (NVIDIA, AMD, Intel, TPU) via Gateway API. Different problem space. LLMKube targets heterogeneous on-prem clusters (laptops, edge nodes, single GPUs) where llm-d's disaggregated multi-node design is more than you need.
• LiteLLM: a widely used provider proxy that operates outside Kubernetes policy. LLMKube doesn't replace LiteLLM; ModelRouter composes with it: declare a provider: litellm backend pointed at a running LiteLLM proxy and the platform-level fail-closed gate sits in front.

Performance

These are historical llama.cpp numbers from November 2025 (LLMKube v0.2.0 and v0.4.0). They show what the runtime did on that hardware at the time, not operator overhead, and they have not been re-run on the current release. The lab builds have current, dated measurements.

Cloud GPU (GKE, NVIDIA L4), v0.2.0

Llama 3.2 3B Instruct Q8_0, the same model on CPU and on the L4. The CPU node type for this comparison was not recorded. Source: v0.2.0 release notes.

Metric	CPU	GPU (NVIDIA L4)	Speedup
Token generation	4.6 tok/s	64 tok/s	14x

Features

Inference:

• Kubernetes-native CRDs, all v1alpha1: Model and InferenceService at the core; the Helm chart also installs ModelRouter, ModelPool, GPUQuota, LoRAAdapter, MetalNode and FederatedCluster (Foreman's CRDs come with its own chart)
• In-cluster runtimes: llama.cpp (GGUF, plus a router mode that serves several models from one server), vLLM, SGLang, PersonaPlex (Moshi speech-to-speech; bring your own image), and any container (generic). TGI is still accepted as a legacy runtime: upstream archived it, and the operator pins its final release, 3.3.7
• On Apple Silicon through the Metal Agent: llama-server, mlx-server, oMLX, vllm-swift, Ollama and TensorFold, as native processes
• Model sources: http(s)://, hf://, s3:// (S3-compatible stores), pvc://, oci:// (image volumes, Kubernetes 1.36+), and file:// or absolute paths under allowlisted host roots
• Persistent model cache, download once, deploy instantly (guide)
• OpenAI-compatible /v1/chat/completions API
• Multi-replica horizontal scaling with scale subresource support (kubectl scale, KEDA)
• License compliance scanning for GGUF models

Routing & policy (ModelRouter):

• ModelRouter CRD: one OpenAI-compatible endpoint, multiple backends (local InferenceServices + external Anthropic / OpenAI / Bedrock / LiteLLM)
• Policy-aware rules: data classification, task complexity, required capabilities, arbitrary header match
• Fail-closed rules for requests labeled pii/phi (by header): checked at apply time and on every request, HTTP 503 instead of cloud fallback; content detection is planned (#441)
• Per-rule and per-backend timeout budgets (spec.rules[].timeout / spec.backends[].timeout)
• Half-open circuit breaker with configurable quarantine window
• Audit log on every request: rule, backend, tier, resolved timeout, outcome
• Streaming SSE passthrough from day one

GPU:

• NVIDIA CUDA (T4, L4, A100, RTX)
• AMD GPUs with llama.cpp Vulkan or ROCm images, including Strix Halo (guide)
• Intel GPU (i915 or xe plugin resources) with llama.cpp SYCL backend
• Apple Silicon (M-series) Metal via Metal Agent
• Multi-GPU inference for 13B-70B+ models (guide)
• Multi-node inference: one model across several nodes with spec.multiNode (vLLM) (guide)
• Automatic layer offloading and tensor splitting
• GPU queue management with priority classes
• DRA passthrough (resource.k8s.io/v1) for CRI-based device scheduling (Kubernetes 1.34+)

Operations:

• Full CLI: llmkube deploy/list/status/delete/catalog/cache/queue
• Model catalog of pre-configured GGUF models for llama.cpp (llmkube catalog list)
• Prometheus metrics + OpenTelemetry tracing of ModelRouter proxy requests (details)
• For an existing Prometheus Operator or kube-prometheus-stack: Grafana dashboards (inference, llama.cpp, vLLM, SGLang, ModelRouter, GPU quota, SLOs, AMD GPU), PodMonitors, a ServiceMonitor and PrometheusRule alerts. All of them are off by default (prometheus.*.enabled, grafana.dashboards.enabled), and Prometheus and Grafana themselves are not bundled
• GPU alert rules on DCGM exporter metrics (utilization, temperature, power, memory, Xid faults)
• Per-service SLOs through Pyrra (spec.slo; needs Pyrra installed and pyrra.enabled)
• Custom CA certificates for corporate environments
• Example Terraform for GPU clusters on GKE, AKS and EKS (terraform/; last changed November 2025, not tested in CI)
• Cost controls: scale a service to zero by hand (kubectl scale isvc <name> --replicas=0) or with KEDA on the scale subresource, and target spot or preemptible node pools with nodeSelector and tolerations. There is no automatic idle scale-to-zero

---

Use the API

Every deployment exposes an OpenAI-compatible API. Use any OpenAI SDK:

from openai import OpenAI

# Through the port-forward from Quick Start. Inside the cluster, use the
# endpoint `llmkube status phi-4-mini` prints:
# http://phi-4-mini.<namespace>.svc.cluster.local:8080/v1
client = OpenAI(
    base_url="http://localhost:8080/v1",
    api_key="not-needed"
)

response = client.chat.completions.create(
    model="phi-4-mini",
    messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Explain Kubernetes in one sentence"}]
)

Works with LangChain, LlamaIndex, and any OpenAI-compatible client library.

Troubleshooting

Model won't download

kubectl describe model <model-name>
kubectl logs <pod-name> -c model-downloader

Common causes: HuggingFace URL needs auth (use direct links), insufficient disk space, network timeout (auto-retries).

Pod OOM crash

llmkube deploy <model> --memory 8Gi  # Rule of thumb: file size x 1.2

GPU not detected

kubectl get pods -n gpu-operator-resources
kubectl get pods -n kube-system -l name=nvidia-device-plugin-ds

OpenShift / MicroShift / OKD: ship the bundled Helm preset

LLMKube's CI exercises the OpenShift SCC admission path end-to-end against MicroShift on every PR, in a best-effort job (continue-on-error) that does not fail the build. The repo ships a Helm values preset at charts/llmkube/values-openshift.yaml that disables the operator's default fsGroup so the restricted-v2 SCC can inject an appropriate value from the namespace's allocated supplemental-groups range.

Recommended install:

helm install llmkube ./charts/llmkube \
  -f charts/llmkube/values-openshift.yaml \
  -n llmkube-system --create-namespace

That single command produces an LLMKube deployment whose InferenceService pods are admitted cleanly under restricted-v2. The same values-openshift.yaml works on MicroShift, OKD, OpenShift Container Platform, and any other distribution that runs the SCC admission controller with the standard MustRunAs fsGroup strategy.

Per-InferenceService override (fallback for single-tenant cases).

If you would rather pin fsGroup per workload instead of disabling the default operator-wide:

# Find your namespace's supplemental-groups range
oc get namespace <namespace> -o jsonpath='{.metadata.annotations.openshift\.io/sa\.scc\.supplemental-groups}'

apiVersion: inference.llmkube.dev/v1alpha1
kind: InferenceService
metadata:
  name: my-service
spec:
  modelRef: my-model
  podSecurityContext:
    fsGroup: 1000680000  # first value from the command above

What the preset does, in one line. Sets controllerManager.initContainer.defaultFSGroup: 0 so the SCC admission controller is the authoritative source of fsGroup, not the operator's default of 102 (which is correct for non-OpenShift clusters and would be rejected by restricted-v2).
