What is the Hookdeck MCP Server?
Connect your Hookdeck account to any AI agent to orchestrate your webhook infrastructure through natural conversation. Hookdeck provides the reliability layer for your event-driven architecture, and this server puts that power in your chat interface.
What you can do
- Connection Management — List, create, and update connections that route webhooks from sources to destinations.
- Traffic Control — Instantly pause or resume event routing for specific connections to manage maintenance windows or outages.
- Source Monitoring — Retrieve and count your webhook sources to understand where your incoming data originates.
- Lifecycle Operations — Enable or disable connections and manage their rules via JSON payloads without leaving your workflow.
- Deep Inspection — Fetch specific metadata for any connection or source using unique IDs to debug routing issues.
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Enter your Hookdeck API Key
- Start managing your webhook reliability layer from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client
Who is this for?
- Backend Engineers — quickly toggle webhook traffic or check connection statuses during deployments.
- DevOps Teams — monitor the health of event-driven pipelines and manage sources programmatically.
- Integration Specialists — verify routing rules and connection counts across different environments.

Frequently asked questions
How can I temporarily stop webhooks from being delivered to a destination?
You can use the pause_connection tool with the specific Connection ID. This will halt event routing until you call unpause_connection.
Can I see how many active sources I have configured?
Yes, use the count_sources tool to get the total number of sources, or list_sources to see the details of each one.
Is it possible to update connection rules through the AI?
Absolutely. Use the update_connection tool by providing the Connection ID and a JSON body containing the new configuration rules.
How do I add an MCP server to Claude Code?
Run claude mcp add <name> --transport http "<url>" in your terminal. Claude Code registers the server and discovers all tools immediately.
Can Claude Code run MCP tools in headless mode?
Yes. Claude Code supports non-interactive execution, making it ideal for scripts, cron jobs, and CI/CD pipelines that need MCP tool access.
How do I list all connected MCP servers?
Run claude mcp in your terminal to see all registered servers and their status, or type /mcp inside an active Claude Code session.
