Connect your Datadog account to any AI agent and gain full observability over your entire infrastructure, applications and logs through natural conversation.
What you can do
- Monitor Management — List, create, update, mute and unmute alert monitors across metric, anomaly, log, service check and synthetics types
- Metrics Querying — Query raw metric timeseries data with Datadog's query syntax to analyze CPU, memory, custom business metrics and more
- Log Search — Search structured and unstructured log events using the same query syntax as the Log Explorer, filtering by service, host, status and any indexed attribute
- Dashboard Discovery — List all dashboards, view their widget configurations and audit shared access without opening the Datadog app
- Synthetics & SLOs — Audit your synthetic test coverage and Service Level Objectives to track SLA compliance across teams
- Incident Tracking — View active and recently resolved incidents with severity, responder assignments and postmortem status
- Infrastructure Inventory — List all monitored hosts with their tags, metrics summary and agent version
- Team & User Auditing — Review team membership, user roles and access permissions to maintain organizational security
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Enter your Datadog API Key and Application Key
- Start monitoring your stack from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client
Stop context-switching to the Datadog dashboard every time an alert fires. Your AI acts as a dedicated SRE.
Who is this for?
- SREs & On-Call Engineers — instantly triage monitors, search error logs and check incident status without opening Datadog
- Engineering Managers — audit monitor coverage, review SLO compliance and track team ownership across services
- Developers — query metrics, inspect log events and verify synthetics directly from your IDE
Built-in capabilities (16)
Requires the monitor type (metric, anomaly, service check, event, log, process, rum, synthetics), a query string (e.g. "avg(last_5m):avg:system.cpu.user{host:myhost} > 80"), a notification message (using @user, @slack, @pagerduty) and a name. Optionally set tags, priority, renotify interval and threshold windows. Create a new Datadog monitor
Provide the dashboard ID. Get details for a specific Datadog dashboard
Provide the numeric monitor ID. Get details for a specific Datadog monitor
Use to discover available dashboards before opening a specific one. List all Datadog dashboards
Each host reports CPU, memory, disk, network metrics plus custom tags. Optionally filter by a tag string (e.g. "env:production") to narrow results. List hosts monitored by Datadog
Each incident has a title, severity, status (active, resolved), timeline, responder assignments and postmortem status. Use to audit ongoing incidents and review resolution patterns. List Datadog incident management records
Monitors track metrics, anomalies, service checks and events. Each monitor has a type (metric, anomaly, service check, event, log), name, query string, notification message and current status. Use this to audit your alerting coverage. List all Datadog monitors
Each SLO defines a target availability percentage (e.g. 99.9%) for a service over a time window (7d, 30d, 90d). Useful for auditing SLA compliance across teams. List Datadog Service Level Objectives
Each test has a type, target URL, status, locations and check frequency. Use to audit your synthetic test coverage and verify endpoints are being monitored. List Datadog Synthetics tests
Teams group users for ownership of monitors, dashboards, SLOs and incidents. Each team has a name, handle, description and user membership list. List Datadog teams
Use to audit access, identify inactive accounts and verify user permissions. List Datadog users
Useful during maintenance windows or known incidents. Provide the monitor ID. Optionally set an end timestamp for auto-unmute or a scope to mute only specific sub-alerts. Mute a Datadog monitor
The query string uses Datadog syntax like "avg:system.cpu.user{host:myhost}". Provide Unix timestamps for the from/to range. Useful for analyzing metric trends without opening a dashboard. Query Datadog metrics timeseries
Supports filtering by source, service, status, host and any indexed attribute. Example query: "service:api status:error". Returns matching log entries with full context, host info and trace ID if available. Search Datadog logs
Provide the monitor ID. Optionally set a scope to unmute only specific sub-alerts. Unmute a Datadog monitor
Provide the monitor ID and any fields to update: name, query, message, tags, priority or thresholds. Only the fields you provide will be changed. Update an existing Datadog monitor

Frequently asked questions
What's the difference between Datadog API Key and Application Key?
The API Key authenticates your requests to the Datadog platform and is required for all endpoints. The Application Key is an additional layer of authorization that controls what actions your integration can perform. Both are generated in Organization Settings > API and Application Keys. Most Datadog API endpoints require both keys.
Can I mute a monitor during a maintenance window?
Yes! Use the mute_monitor action with the monitor ID. You can optionally set an end timestamp (ISO 8601) for the mute to automatically expire, or specify a scope to mute only certain sub-alerts (e.g. 'env:staging'). Use unmute_monitor to re-enable notifications.
What query syntax does the metrics endpoint use?
Datadog uses a specific query format: [function]:[metric]{[tags]}. For example: avg:system.cpu.user{host:web01} returns the average CPU user time for host web01. Common functions include avg, sum, max, min, count. Time windows are specified in the query as avg(last_5m):... or passed as from/to Unix timestamps to the tool.
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.
