Frequently asked questions
Can I check if a specific website is down using the agent?
Yes! Use the list_monitors tool to see the status of all your monitored URLs. You can also use get_monitor with a specific ID to see its current status and last checked timestamp.
How do I see who is currently on-call?
Simply ask the agent to list_on_calls. It will retrieve the current schedules and rotations, showing you who is responsible for incident response right now.
Does the integration allow me to create a new heartbeat monitor?
Currently, the toolset focuses on managing monitors and retrieving incident/on-call data. You can list and inspect heartbeats, but for creating new monitors with complex notification rules, we recommend using the Better Stack dashboard.
How does Cline connect to MCP servers?
Cline reads MCP server configurations from its settings panel in VS Code. Add the server URL and Cline discovers all available tools on initialization.
Can Cline run MCP tools without approval?
By default, Cline asks for confirmation before executing tool calls. You can configure auto-approval rules for trusted servers in the settings.
Does Cline support multiple MCP servers at once?
Yes. Configure as many servers as needed. Cline can use tools from different servers within the same autonomous task execution.
