Sign up, install the Helm chart, share fleet views with your team. Free tier: 3 clusters, unlimited members. For the architecture, see Cloud overview.

Sign up

Go to app.radarhq.io and authenticate with Google, a passkey, or an email magic link. New users are routed through the WorkOS sign-up flow on the same page. Auth is via WorkOS.

Name your organization

First-time users land on an onboarding page. If your email domain isn’t a free-mail provider (gmail.com, outlook.com, etc.), we’ll suggest a name based on it. You can change it later under Settings → Organization.

Connect a cluster

From the home page, click Connect a cluster (or go to /install). Give the cluster a name and click Generate install command.You’ll see a Helm command with your cluster ID and one-time install token baked in:
helm upgrade --install radar oci://ghcr.io/skyhook-io/radar \
  --namespace radar --create-namespace \
  --set cloud.enabled=true \
  --set cloud.url=wss://api.radarhq.io/agent \
  --set cloud.token=rhc_... \
  --set cloud.clusterName=<cluster_id> \
  --set rbac.helm=true \
  --set rbac.secrets=true \
  --set rbac.podExec=true \
  --set rbac.portForward=true
Run that against the cluster you want to connect. The page polls for up to 5 minutes; once the in-cluster Radar reaches the control plane, you’ll be redirected into the cluster view.
The token is shown once. If you lose it, rotate it from Clusters → cluster → Rotate token - this invalidates the old one and forces a reconnect.

Use Radar

Once connected, you’ll see the same Radar UI as the OSS binary - topology, resources, timeline, audit, Helm, GitOps, traffic, cost, MCP. Cloud adds:
  • Cluster switcher in the top nav for jumping between connected clusters.
  • Fleet views at /fleet/* - cross-cluster problems, search, checks, and package drift.
  • Disconnected banner if the in-cluster Radar stops reaching the control plane.

Invite your team

Settings → Organization → Members → Invite member. Pick a role:
  • Owner - full admin, including billing and destructive ops.
  • Member - operational access (view + standard mutations).
  • Viewer - read-only.
If everyone on your team uses the same email domain, set up domain auto-join so new sign-ups land in the org automatically.

Wire AI tools (optional)

Radar Cloud exposes per-cluster MCP endpoints so Claude, Cursor, Claude Code, and other MCP-aware tools can read and operate on your clusters. Mint a personal access token under Settings → Tokens and follow the in-app wizard. See Personal access tokens and AI via MCP.
