What is the Pusher Channels MCP Server?
Connect your Pusher Channels infrastructure to any AI agent to orchestrate real-time messaging and monitor your application's pub/sub health through natural language.
What you can do
- Event Broadcasting — Trigger single or batch events across multiple channels with custom JSON payloads to update your frontend instantly.
- Channel Monitoring — List all active channels, filter by prefix, and fetch specific metadata like subscription counts or user counts.
- Presence Management — Retrieve lists of user IDs currently subscribed to presence channels to understand real-time engagement.
- Session Control — Terminate all active WebSocket connections for a specific user ID to handle security incidents or forced logouts.
- State Inspection — Query the detailed state of any specific channel to debug message flow or connection metrics.
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Provide your Pusher App ID, Key, Secret, and Cluster
- Start broadcasting events and managing connections from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP client
No more jumping into the Pusher Debug Console to manually trigger test events or check if a channel is active. Your AI acts as a real-time infrastructure operator.
Who is this for?
- Full-stack Developers — trigger test events and verify webhook payloads directly from the code editor.
- DevOps Engineers — monitor channel activity and user counts without opening the Pusher dashboard.
- Support Teams — quickly identify if a user is connected to a presence channel or terminate problematic sessions.
Built-in capabilities (6)
Fetch information for a specific channel
Fetch users in a presence channel
Fetch multiple channels
Terminate all connections for a user
Trigger multiple events in a single batch
Max 10KB data payload. Trigger an event on one or more channels

Frequently asked questions
Can I send the same event to multiple channels at once?
Yes. The trigger_event tool accepts an array of channel names (up to 100) to broadcast your message simultaneously across your infrastructure.
How do I check which users are currently online in a presence channel?
Use the list_channel_users tool with the specific channel name (must start with presence-). It will return a list of all active user IDs.
Is it possible to force a user to disconnect?
Yes. The terminate_user_connections tool allows you to close all active WebSocket connections for a specific user ID immediately.
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.
