What is the Datadog Cloud SIEM MCP Server?
Connect your Datadog security module to any AI agent and take full control of your Cloud SIEM and threat hunting workflows through natural conversation.
What you can do
- Security Signal Search — Execute ingestion searches returning critical threats detected by Datadog SIEM, CSPM, and CWS matching MITRE ATT&CK vectors
- Signal Triaging — Update the state of active threat alerts, transitioning signals from open to archived with audited false-positive justifications
- Detection Rule Management — List and retrieve exact logic for security rules identifying AWS CloudTrail deviations or Kubernetes root escalations
- Rule Orchestration — Construct new Cloud SIEM Log Detection rules by pushing raw name/message fields and specific Lucene query bindings
- Threat Hunting — Directly query raw Datadog logs with a 10s lookbehind to capture highly localized context matching malicious source IPs
- Security Filter Auditing — Retrieve global exclusion policies mapping to SIEM log pipelines to verify which low-value vectors are blocked
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Enter your Datadog API Key and APP Key
- Start managing your cloud security from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client
Who is this for?
- Security Analysts & SOC — search for security signals and triage active threats in real-time
- Incident Responders — hunt for threats using raw log context and malicous IP tracking
- Security Engineers — manage and deploy new detection rules using natural language
- Compliance Officers — audit security filters and detection rule configurations across environments
Built-in capabilities (10)
Accepts raw name/message fields, specific Lucene query bindings filtering for malicious activity, and severity levels (info, low, medium, high, critical). Auto-activates upon creation. Construct a new Cloud SIEM Log Detection Rule
Irreversible action. Pre-packaged rules provided by Datadog typically cannot be outright deleted (only disabled), making this primarily for user-created custom JSON rules. Permanently delete a Datadog Security Detection Rule
g. > 5 occurrences in 5 mins), severity bindings, tagging matrices, and Notification routing hooks tying into PagerDuty or Slack. Retrieve the exact logic/queries for a specific Detection Rule
Use this immediately after verifying an attacker footprint. Additional threat hunt tool extracting exact log bounds (100 msgs)
Verifies the existence of proactive detections identifying AWS CloudTrail deviations, GCP anomalous IAM usage, and Kubernetes root escalations. List configured Datadog Security Detection Rules
These filters inherently block high-volume, low-value logging vectors from ever reaching the SIEM evaluation engine in order to preserve compute budgets. List Security Filter configurations
Essential for rapid Threat Hunting before detection rules alert. Useful for extracting contextual VPC Flow Logs or application stack traces related to an active breach. Directly query raw Datadog Logs over the past 15/m for Threat Hunting
Use lucene-based queries like "status:critical OR @usr.id:admin" to filter high severity indicators mapping to MITRE ATT&CK vectors. Search Cloud SIEM Security Signals (Alerts) over the last 24h
Test API authentication validity against the Security Module
Transition signals directly from "open" to "archived", or from "archived" back to "open". If archiving, an official reason (e.g. "false_positive" or "testing_or_maintenance") must be assigned. Modify the state of a Datadog SIEM Security Signal
Why Cursor?
Cursor's Agent mode turns Datadog Cloud SIEM into an in-editor superpower. Ask Cursor to generate code using live data from Datadog Cloud SIEM and it fetches, processes, and writes. all in a single agentic loop. 10 tools appear alongside file editing and terminal access, creating a unified development environment grounded in real-time information.
- —
Agent mode turns Cursor into an autonomous coding assistant that can read files, run commands, and call MCP tools without switching context
- —
Cursor's Composer feature can generate entire files using real-time data fetched through MCP. no copy-pasting from external dashboards
- —
MCP tools appear alongside built-in tools like file reading and terminal access, creating a unified agentic environment
- —
VS Code extension compatibility means your existing workflow, keybindings, and extensions all work alongside MCP tools

Frequently asked questions
Can my agent help me triage security alerts in Datadog?
Yes. Use the 'triage_signal' tool. You can update active threats from 'open' to 'archived', providing a required justification like 'false_positive'. The agent will push the status update directly to the Datadog SIEM platform.
How do I search for malicious activities matching specific IP addresses?
Use the 'get_raw_log_context' tool. Provide the suspicious IP address, and the agent will perform a threat-hunting search with a 10s lookbehind to capture highly localized context matching that source, helping you verify attacker footprints.
Can I see all active security detection rules through the agent?
Absolutely. The 'list_detection_rules' tool returns all custom and prepackaged Datadog Cloud SIEM rules. Your agent can then inspect specific rule schemas to verify evaluation windows, trigger cases, and notification hooks.
What is Agent mode and why does it matter for MCP?
Agent mode is Cursor's autonomous execution mode where the AI can perform multi-step tasks: reading files, editing code, running terminal commands, and calling MCP tools. Without Agent mode, Cursor operates in a simpler ask-and-answer mode that doesn't support tool calling. Always ensure you're in Agent mode when working with MCP servers.
Where does Cursor store MCP configuration?
Cursor looks for MCP server configurations in a mcp.json file. You can configure servers at the project level (.cursor/mcp.json in your project root) or globally (~/.cursor/mcp.json). Project-level configs take precedence.
Can Cursor use MCP tools in inline edits?
No. MCP tools are only available in Agent mode through the chat panel. Inline completions and Tab suggestions do not trigger MCP tool calls. This is by design. tool calls require user visibility and approval.
How do I verify MCP tools are loaded?
Open Settings → Features → MCP and look for your server name. A green indicator means the server is connected. You can also check Agent mode's available tools by clicking the tools dropdown in the chat panel.
Tools not appearing in Cursor
Ensure you are in Agent mode (not Ask mode). MCP tools only work in Agent mode.
Server shows as disconnected
Check Settings → Features → MCP and verify the server status. Try clicking the refresh button.
