About New Relic MCP Server
Connect your New Relic account to your AI agent and gain full visibility into your applications and infrastructure through natural conversation using the powerful NerdGraph GraphQL API.
The OpenAI Agents SDK auto-discovers all 10 tools from New Relic through native MCP integration. Build agents with built-in guardrails, tracing, and handoff patterns. chain multiple agents where one queries New Relic, another analyzes results, and a third generates reports, all orchestrated through Vinkius.
What you can do
- Entity Discovery — List and search for monitored entities such as APM applications, hosts, containers, and browser apps.
- Custom Querying — Execute raw NRQL (New Relic Query Language) strings to retrieve specific datasets and custom metrics.
- Golden Metrics — Fetch real-time APM summaries including error rates, Apdex scores, and average response times.
- Incident Monitoring — Track active AI-detected issues and open alerts across your accounts.
- Dashboard Oversight — List and retrieve configuration details for your custom observability dashboards.
- Account Management — Access current user metadata and list all accessible New Relic accounts.
- SLO Tracking — Monitor defined Service Level Indicators (SLOs) and performance levels.
The New Relic MCP Server exposes 10 tools through the Vinkius. Connect it to OpenAI Agents SDK in under two minutes — no API keys to rotate, no infrastructure to provision, no vendor lock-in. Your configuration, your data, your control.
