Overview Set up access to CoreWeave Kubernetes Service (CKS). CKS runs bare-metal Kubernetes with NVIDIA GPUs -- no hypervisor overhead. Access is via standard kubeconfig with CoreWeave-issued credentials. Prerequisites CoreWeave account at https://cloud.coreweave.com kubectl v1.28+ installed Kubernetes namespace provisioned by CoreWeave Instructions Step 1: Download Kubeconfig 1. Log in to https://cloud.coreweave.com 2. Navigate to API Access > Kubeconfig 3. Download the kubeconfig file Step 2: Configure API Token Step 3: Verify GPU Access Step 4: Test with a Simple GPU Pod Error Handling Error Cause Solution ------- ------- ---------- Unable to connect to the server Wrong kubeconfig Verify KUBECONFIG path Forbidden Missing namespace permissions Contact CoreWeave support No GPU nodes found Wrong node labels Check gpu.nvidia.com/class labels Pod stuck Pending GPU capacity exhausted Try different GPU type or region Output A namespace-scoped Kubernetes context and a verified GPU scheduling result. A credential setup that references the approved secret manager and never commits or prints live values. A deleted smoke-test Pod after its redacted result is recorded. Examples Configure a temporary shell session from your secret manager, then run the smallest GPU smoke test in a sandbox namespace: If access is denied or capacity is unavailable, retain the redacted status and contact the namespace owner. Do not put a token in .env, a manifest, shell history, or support tickets.
