+# Kubernetes Health Probes for Kepler
+
+This documentation describes the implementation of health check endpoints for Kubernetes probes in Kepler.
+
+## Overview
+
+Health probes allow Kubernetes to determine the health status of your application. Kepler implements two types of probes:
+
+- **Liveness Probe** (`/probe/livez`): Determines if the application is alive and responding
+- **Readiness Probe** (`/probe/readyz`): Determines if the application is ready to receive traffic
+
+## Endpoints
+
+### `/probe/livez` - Liveness Probe
+
+**Description**: Checks if Kepler's monitor service is alive and responding.
+
+**Success Criteria**:
+- PowerMonitor service is not nil
+- Collection context is not cancelled
+
+**Response**:
+- `200 OK`: Service is alive
+- `503 Service Unavailable`: Service is not alive
+
+**Example Response**:
+```json
+{
+  "status": "ok",
+  "timestamp": "2025-01-17T10:30:00Z",
+  "duration": "1.2µs"
+}
+```
+
+### `/probe/readyz` - Readiness Probe
+
+**Description**: Checks if Kepler's monitor service is ready to serve data.
+
+**Success Criteria**:
+- Service is alive (checks liveness first)
+- At least one snapshot is available
+- Snapshot is not too old (within staleness limit)
+- CPU meter is functional
+- Energy zones are initialized
+
+**Response**:
+- `200 OK`: Service is ready
+- `503 Service Unavailable`: Service is not ready
+
+**Example Response**:
+```json
+{
+  "status": "ok", 
+  "timestamp": "2025-01-17T10:30:00Z",
+  "duration": "1.8µs"
+}
+```
+
+## Kubernetes Configuration
+
+### DaemonSet with Health Probes
+
+```yaml
+apiVersion: apps/v1
+kind: DaemonSet
+metadata:
+  name: kepler
+  namespace: kepler
+spec:
+  selector:
+    matchLabels:
+      app: kepler
+  template:
+    metadata:
+      labels:
+        app: kepler
+    spec:
+      containers:
+      - name: kepler
+        image: quay.io/sustainable_computing_io/kepler:latest
+        ports:
+        - containerPort: 28282
+          name: http-metrics
+        livenessProbe:
+          httpGet:
+            path: /probe/livez
+            port: 28282
+          initialDelaySeconds: 10
+          periodSeconds: 30
+          timeoutSeconds: 5
+          failureThreshold: 3
+        readinessProbe:
+          httpGet:
+            path: /probe/readyz
+            port: 28282
+          initialDelaySeconds: 5
+          periodSeconds: 10
+          timeoutSeconds: 5
+          failureThreshold: 3
+```
+
+## Testing
+
+### Unit Tests
+
+Unit tests are available in `internal/server/health_test.go`:
+
+```bash
+go test ./internal/server/ -v
+```
+
+### Integration Tests
+
+A test script is provided to test the endpoints live:
+
+```bash
+# Start Kepler
+go run ./cmd/kepler/
+
+# In another terminal, test the endpoints
+./examples/test-health-endpoints.sh
+```
+
+## Architecture
+
+### Interfaces
+
+The following interfaces were added in `internal/service/service.go`:
+
+```go
+// LiveChecker checks if a service is alive
+type LiveChecker interface {
+    IsLive(ctx context.Context) (bool, error)
+}
+
+// ReadyChecker checks if a service is ready
+type ReadyChecker interface {
+    IsReady(ctx context.Context) (bool, error)
+}
+```
+
+### Implementation
+
+1. **PowerMonitor** (`internal/monitor/monitor.go`): Implements `LiveChecker` and `ReadyChecker` interfaces
+2. **HealthProbeService** (`internal/server/health.go`): Service that exposes HTTP endpoints
+3. **Integration** (`cmd/kepler/main.go`): Service registration in the main application
+
+### Verification Flow
+
+#### Liveness Check
+1. Verify the monitor is not nil
+2. Verify the collection context is not cancelled
+
+#### Readiness Check  
+1. Execute liveness check
+2. Verify a snapshot is available
+3. Verify the snapshot is not stale
+4. Verify the CPU meter is available
+5. Verify energy zones are initialized
+
+## Performance
+
+Health checks are designed to be very lightweight:
+- **Liveness**: Typically 1-5 microseconds
+- **Readiness**: Typically 1-10 microseconds
+
+No forced data collection is performed during health checks to avoid performance impact.
+
+## Debugging
+
+### Logs
+
+Health checks generate DEBUG level logs for successes and ERROR level logs for failures:
+
+```bash
+# View health check logs
+journalctl -u kepler -f | grep "health-probe"
+```
+
+### Manual Testing
+
+```bash
+# Test liveness
+curl -v http://localhost:28282/probe/livez
+
+# Test readiness  
+curl -v http://localhost:28282/probe/readyz
+
+# With jq to format response
+curl -s http://localhost:28282/probe/livez | jq .
+```
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Liveness probe fails
+
+- Verify Kepler is started
+- Check logs for startup errors
+- Verify port 28282 is accessible
+
+### Readiness probe fails
+
+- Verify liveness probe works
+- Verify `/proc` and `/sys` files are accessible
+- Check RAPL zones configuration
+- Verify collection interval is not too long
+
+## Migration
+
+This implementation is compatible with existing Kepler versions. The new endpoints are optional and do not affect existing functionality.
+
+To enable health probes in an existing installation, simply update the Kubernetes configuration to include the new probes.
