Kubernetes gives teams incredible power and flexibility—but it’s also noisy. Every day, platform and security teams encounter a flood of policy violations, including missing resource limits, insecure container settings, deprecated APIs, and more. 

Fixing them typically means opening a ticket, chasing down the right developer, or manually editing manifests—wasting time and increasing mean time to remediate (MTTR)..

What if instead of endless firefighting, your system could spot a violation and propose the fix—automatically?

That’s precisely what the Remediator Agent does.

What Is the Remediator Agent?

The Remediator Agent is an AI-powered remediation engine for Kubernetes that integrates directly with Kyverno and  Nirmata Control Hub (NCH).

It bridges the gap between policy detection and automated action, helping teams reduce manual work while maintaining their clusters’ compliance and security.

Why We Built Remediator

With Kyverno and NCH, you already get powerful policy-as-code and cluster-wide visibility into policy violations.

But visibility alone doesn’t solve the problem; it just exposes it.

Teams kept asking:

• “Can you just fix this for me?”
• “Can you open the PR so I don’t have to?”
• “Can we run this across multiple clusters without breaking GitOps?”

The Remediator Agent answers these with AI-assisted remediation that works hand-in-hand with your existing GitOps workflows – and most importantly, helps teams dramatically reduce MTTR.

How The Remediator Agent Works

Think of Remediator as the missing link between detection and action:

1. Watch: The agent continuously detects policy violations.
2. Understand: AI interprets the violation, the resource, and the policy intent.
3. Propose: It generates a clean diff, the actual lines to change, and explains why.
4. Act: Depending on your setup, it can:
   1. Open a Pull Request
   2. Run in dry-run mode
   3. Apply fixes in a controlled way.

And because it’s GitOps-aligned, all changes flow through PRs, reviews, and approvals. No backdoors, no surprises.

Flexible Deployment Options

Choose where and how to run remediation:

 

• Centrally, like ArgoCD Hub: Deploy the Remediator once in a hub cluster and manage remediation across multiple spoke clusters.
• Locally in one cluster: Scope remediation down to a namespace, application, or workload.
• Watching your Git repos: for teams running policies in Enforce mode, Remediator can remotely track your Git repositories and automatically open PRs with fixes.

What Makes the Remediator Agent Different

• Reduced MTTR: Cut remediation time from days or hours down to minutes.
• AI-Powered Fixes: You don’t just see what’s wrong; you see how to fix it.
• Flexible Modes: Run locally, centrally, or with remote Git repo monitoring.
• Selective Control: Remediate what matters (e.g., “critical” violations in production).
• Explainability: Every suggested fix comes with a clear, plain-English explanation.

Try Remediator Agent Today

Policies keep your clusters safe. But without remediation, they’re just guardrails. With the Remediator Agent, we’re moving toward a world where Kubernetes not only tells you what’s wrong—it helps you fix it. The Remediator Agent transforms Kubernetes policy enforcement into policy automation.

The outcome? Dramatically reduced MTTR, less toil, and faster time to compliance.
