What is the Gotify MCP Server?

Connect your Gotify instance to any AI agent to streamline your notification workflows. Gotify is a self-hosted notification server, and this MCP server allows you to interact with its API using natural language.

What you can do

  • Messaging — Send push notifications with custom priorities and titles, or retrieve and delete existing messages from your stream.
  • Application Management — Create, list, update, or delete Gotify applications to organize your notification sources and tokens.
  • Client Control — Manage clients and tokens to authorize different devices or services to receive messages.
  • User Administration — (Admin only) List or create users to manage access to your private Gotify instance.

How it works

  1. Subscribe to this server
  2. Enter your Gotify URL and your Application or Client tokens
  3. Start sending alerts or managing your server from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP client

Who is this for?

  • DevOps Engineers — automate alerts for CI/CD pipelines or server health checks directly from the terminal.
  • Developers — test notification payloads and manage app tokens without leaving the code editor.
  • Home Automation Enthusiasts — bridge your AI assistant with your self-hosted notification hub.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

01

How do I send a notification to my phone using this server?

Use the send_message tool. You'll need to provide a message and a title. Ensure you have configured your GOTIFY_APP_TOKEN so the server knows which application is sending the alert.

02

Can I clear all messages from my Gotify stream at once?

Yes, you can use the delete_all_messages tool. This requires a valid GOTIFY_CLIENT_TOKEN to authorize the deletion of messages for that specific client.

03

Is it possible to create new application tokens via AI?

Absolutely. Use the create_application tool with a name and optional description. The AI will return the details of the new application, including its token.

04

How does Claude Desktop discover MCP tools?

When Claude Desktop starts, it reads the claude_desktop_config.json file and connects to each configured MCP server. It calls the tools/list endpoint to fetch the schema for every available tool, then surfaces them as clickable options in the chat interface via the 🔌 icon.

05

What happens if the MCP server is temporarily unavailable?

Claude Desktop handles disconnections gracefully. if the server is unreachable at startup, the tools simply won't appear. Once the server becomes available again, restarting Claude Desktop will re-establish the connection. There is no timeout penalty or error loop.

06

Can I connect multiple MCP servers simultaneously?

Yes. You can add as many servers as you need in the mcpServers section of the config file. Each server appears as a separate tool provider, and Claude can use tools from multiple servers in a single conversation turn.

07

Is there a limit on the number of tools per server?

Claude Desktop can handle hundreds of tools per server. However, for optimal LLM performance, Vinkius servers are designed to expose focused, well-documented tool sets rather than overwhelming the model with too many options.

08

Does Claude Desktop support Streamable HTTP transport?

Yes. Claude Desktop supports both SSE (Server-Sent Events) and the newer Streamable HTTP transport that Vinkius uses. Simply provide the server URL. Claude auto-negotiates the transport protocol.

09

Server not appearing after restart

Ensure the JSON is valid (no trailing commas). Check the file path: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json (macOS) or %APPDATA%\\Claude\\ (Windows).

10

Authentication error

Verify your Vinkius token is correct. Go to cloud.vinkius.com to regenerate it if needed.

11

Tools not showing in chat

Click the 🔌 icon at the bottom of the chat input. If it shows 0 tools, the server may still be connecting. wait a few seconds.
