# I Built an AI Kubernetes Pod Debugger — Diagnoses CrashLoopBackOff, OOMKilled, and More in Seconds

The author built an AI-powered Kubernetes pod debugger that automates the repetitive kubectl diagnostic loop (get pods, describe, logs, Google) by feeding structured pod failure data to Ollama. It handles six common failure types—ImagePullBackOff, CrashLoopBackOff, OOMKilled, Pending, Failed, and Init Container failures—by collecting logs and events, truncating them to fit context windows, and generating root cause analysis with fix suggestions.
