What is the Better Stack MCP Server?
Connect your Better Stack (Better Uptime) account to any AI agent and empower it to act as your Level 1 Site Reliability Engineer (SRE). Let your AI diagnose incidents, manage escalations, and audit monitoring configs securely via conversation.
What you can do
- Incident Response — Rapidly list firing incidents, inspect technical downtime payloads, acknowledge alerts, and force resolve states inline
- Uptime Monitors — Fetch exact definitions of active HTTP endpoint pings, DNS probes, and latency constraints across your fleet
- Cron Heartbeats — Investigate passive tracking endpoints validating background workers and server limits
- On-Call Management — Expose active shifts and team schedules to determine explicitly who is getting paged in real-time
- Status Pages — Read configured public dashboards tracking your global infrastructure
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Enter your Better Stack API Token
- Empower Claude, Cursor, or your preferred agent to respond to alerts interactively
Stop switching context between your terminal and incident dashboards during critical outages.
Who is this for?
- DevOps & SREs — audit on-call matrices safely, track firing pages, and orchestrate initial debugging workflows without leaving chat
- Engineering Managers — review recent downtime timelines and resolve dormant alerts quickly
- Backend Developers — rapidly debug failing cron heartbeats while simultaneously patching code

Frequently asked questions
Can my AI automatically acknowledge an incident so my phone stops ringing?
Yes! Running the acknowledge_incident capability pushes a verified API command halting escalation cycles (like SMS and phone calls) natively while you debug.
Is it possible to see the exact HTTP response body or headers that caused a monitor to fail?
Yes, pulling details via get_incident exposes the raw nested trace containing the root cause payloads and server errors Better Stack historically received when the check failed.
Can the agent create new monitors automatically?
No. The integration focuses safely on observation, alerting resolution, and tracking currently. Creation endpoints represent mutation vectors decoupled to ensure you preserve billing and account structure intentionally.
How does the OpenAI Agents SDK connect to MCP?
Use MCPServerSse(url=...) to create a server connection. The SDK auto-discovers all tools and makes them available to your agent with full type information.
Can I use multiple MCP servers in one agent?
Yes. Pass a list of MCPServerSse instances to the agent constructor. The agent can use tools from all connected servers within a single run.
Does the SDK support streaming responses?
Yes. The SDK supports SSE and Streamable HTTP transports, both of which work natively with Vinkius.
