What is the Hookdeck (Webhook Gateway) MCP Server?
Connect your Hookdeck account to any AI agent and take full control of your webhook gateway and event-driven architecture through natural conversation.
What you can do
- Connection Management — List, create, and update connections that route events from sources to destinations with specific rules.
- Operational Control — Instantly pause, unpause, enable, or disable connections to handle maintenance or traffic spikes without touching code.
- Source Monitoring — Manage your webhook sources, retrieve their configurations, and monitor the flow of incoming events.
- Infrastructure Auditing — Count active connections and sources to get a high-level overview of your integration health.
- Lifecycle Actions — Delete or update existing infrastructure components as your project requirements evolve.
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Enter your Hookdeck API Key
- Start managing your webhook reliability from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client
No more jumping between dashboards to pause a failing webhook or check a source configuration. Your AI acts as a dedicated DevOps engineer for your event pipeline.
Who is this for?
- Backend Engineers — quickly debug and manage webhook routes without leaving the terminal or IDE.
- DevOps & SREs — automate the enabling/disabling of connections during deployment windows or incidents.
- Support Engineers — check source configurations and connection statuses to troubleshoot client integration issues.

Frequently asked questions
Can I pause a specific webhook connection if my destination server is undergoing maintenance?
Yes. Use the pause_connection tool with the Connection ID. This will hold incoming events until you use unpause_connection to resume delivery.
How do I see all the active sources currently receiving webhooks?
Simply ask the agent to run list_sources. It will return a list of all configured sources, including their IDs and current status.
Is it possible to get a quick count of how many connections I have configured?
Yes, the count_connections tool provides the total number of connections in your Hookdeck project instantly.
How does Pydantic AI discover MCP tools?
Create an MCPServerHTTP instance with the server URL. Pydantic AI connects, discovers all tools, and generates typed Python interfaces automatically.
Does Pydantic AI validate MCP tool responses?
Yes. When you define result types as Pydantic models, every tool response is validated against the schema. Invalid data raises a clear error instead of silently corrupting your pipeline.
Can I switch LLM providers without changing MCP code?
Absolutely. Pydantic AI abstracts the model layer. your Hookdeck (Webhook Gateway) MCP integration works identically with OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, or any supported provider.
