Bring Service Health
to OpenAI Agents SDK
Learn how to connect Gatus (Health Dashboard) to OpenAI Agents SDK and start using 4 AI agent tools in minutes. Fully managed, enterprise secure, and ready to use without writing a single line of code.
Compatible with every major AI agent and IDE
What is the Gatus (Health Dashboard) MCP Server?
Connect your Gatus health dashboard to any AI agent to monitor your services and infrastructure through natural conversation.
What you can do
- Global Visibility — List all monitored endpoints and their current health status across your entire infrastructure.
- Deep Health Inspection — Drill down into specific services to see recent results and status history using slugified keys.
- Performance Statistics — Retrieve performance metrics for individual endpoints to identify latency or reliability issues.
- Metrics Export — Access raw Prometheus-compatible metrics for deep technical analysis and custom reporting.
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Enter your Gatus instance URL
- Start monitoring your system health from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client.
No more manual dashboard checking. Your AI acts as a 24/7 SRE assistant, providing instant insights into your service availability.
Who is this for?
- DevOps Engineers — quickly audit service health and retrieve raw metrics without leaving the terminal or IDE.
- SRE Teams — investigate performance regressions and endpoint history through natural language queries.
- Product Owners — get high-level status reports on system availability during incidents.

Why teams choose Vinkius for Gatus (Health Dashboard) in OpenAI Agents SDK
The Gatus (Health Dashboard) MCP Server runs on Vinkius-managed infrastructure inside AWS — a purpose-built runtime with per-request V8 isolates, Ed25519 signed audit chains, and sub-40ms cold starts. All 4 tools execute in hardened sandboxes optimized for native MCP execution.
Your AI agents in OpenAI Agents SDK only access the data you authorize, with DLP that blocks sensitive information from ever reaching the model, kill switch for instant shutdown, and up to 60% token savings. Enterprise-grade infrastructure, zero maintenance.

* Every MCP server runs on Vinkius-managed infrastructure inside AWS - a purpose-built runtime with per-request V8 isolates, Ed25519 signed audit chains, and sub-40ms cold starts optimized for native MCP execution. See our infrastructure
How Vinkius secures
Gatus (Health Dashboard) for OpenAI Agents SDK
Every tool call from OpenAI Agents SDK to the Gatus (Health Dashboard) MCP Server is protected by DLP redaction, cryptographic audit chains, V8 sandbox isolation, kill switch, and financial circuit breakers.
Frequently asked questions
Can I see the status of all my services at once?
Yes! Use the list_endpoints tool to retrieve a complete list of all configured endpoints and their current health status across your Gatus instance.
How do I check the performance history of a specific service?
You can use get_endpoint_stats with the endpoint's slugified key to see detailed performance statistics, or get_endpoint_health for recent health check results.
Does this server provide raw metrics for analysis?
Yes, the get_metrics tool retrieves raw Prometheus-compatible metrics exported by Gatus, allowing your AI to perform deep technical analysis.
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.
