Verified Code examples on this page have been automatically tested and verified.Use the agentgateway Admin UI to inspect your Kubernetes proxy configuration.
About
The agentgateway Admin UI is a built-in web interface that runs on port 15000 of the agentgateway-proxy pod. In Kubernetes mode, the UI is read-only. It reflects the configuration pushed by the agentgateway controller. Make configuration changes by updating your Kubernetes resources such as via GitOps, not through the UI.
The Admin UI is useful for debugging and verifying what configuration the proxy has received, and for testing MCP tool calls through the built-in playground.
Access the Admin UI
The Admin UI is not exposed as a Kubernetes Service. To access it, use kubectl port-forward to forward the pod’s port to your local machine.
Forward port 15000 from the
agentgateway-proxydeployment to your local machine.kubectl port-forward deployment/agentgateway-proxy -n agentgateway-system 15000Example output:
Forwarding from 127.0.0.1:15000 -> 15000 Forwarding from [::1]:15000 -> 15000While the port-forward is running, open http://localhost:15000/ui/ in your browser.
The Admin UI dashboard shows your configured listeners and port binding in read-only mode.


kubectl port-forward command. Run it in a dedicated terminal tab or in the background if you need persistent access.
