# Uninstall Kubernetes Agentic Harness (kube-agents)
Use this skill when asked to remove or uninstall `kube-agents` infrastructure from a GCP project or GKE cluster.
## One-Liner Uninstall Command (Non-Interactive)
To run the project teardown non-interactively:
```bash
curl -fsSL https://gke-labs.github.io/kube-agents/uninstall.sh | bash -s -- \
--non-interactive \
--project-id="<PROJECT_ID>" \
--cluster-name="<CLUSTER_NAME>" \
--region="<REGION>"
```
+ The engine is `lifecycle.sh destroy` in `terraform/examples/full-install`, run against the
+ install's Terraform state in GCS (bucket `<project>-kube-agents-tfstate`, prefix
+ `kube-agents/<cluster>` — derived from the coordinates, so a fresh clone finds it). Before
+ `terraform destroy` it handles the four asymmetries a bare destroy trips over: it forgets the
+ undeletable KMS resources from state (kept usable in GCP, re-adopted on the next apply), deletes
+ the `PlatformAgent` CR and force-clears its finalizer if the operator is wedged, purges every
+ backup the GKE BackupPlan owns, and clears the cluster's deletion protection.
+
When the command does not run from a local `kube-agents` checkout, pass
- `--source-ref="<SEMVER_TAG_OR_FULL_COMMIT_SHA>"` so the teardown scripts are fetched at the same
- revision that was installed; otherwise they are fetched from `main`.
+ `--source-ref="<SEMVER_TAG_OR_FULL_COMMIT_SHA>"` so the teardown engine is fetched at the same
+ revision that was installed; otherwise it is fetched from `main`.
+
+ **Installs with no Terraform state** (in GCS or locally) were created by a pre-Terraform
+ release. This uninstaller exits without touching them — re-run it with
+ `--source-ref=<that release>` so that release's own teardown runs instead.
