About UptimeRobot MCP Server
Connect your UptimeRobot account to any AI agent to actively manage your website monitors, alert contacts, and response times directly from your conversational workspace.
Windsurf's Cascade agent chains multiple UptimeRobot tool calls autonomously. query data, analyze results, and generate code in a single agentic session. Paste Vinkius Edge URL, reload, and all 10 tools are immediately available. Real-time tool feedback appears inline, so you see API responses directly in your editor.
What you can do
- Uptime Monitors — List all configured services natively, retrieve individual historical logs, create new endpoints to monitor (HTTP, Ping), edit configurations, or permanently delete monitors.
- Alert Contacts — Browse your configured alert notification targets (Email, Slack, Webhooks), create new distribution recipients, and manage who gets notified upon downtime.
- Metrics & History — Reset historical statistics for specific monitors quickly or retrieve the raw data array of up ratios and response times to graph or analyze.
- Account Setup — Extract UptimeRobot account usage to discover your remaining monitor slots limits and overall subscription features.
The UptimeRobot MCP Server exposes 10 tools through the Vinkius. Connect it to Windsurf in under two minutes — no API keys to rotate, no infrastructure to provision, no vendor lock-in. Your configuration, your data, your control.
