What is the UptimeRobot MCP Server?
Connect your UptimeRobot account to any AI agent to actively manage your website monitors, alert contacts, and response times directly from your conversational workspace.
What you can do
- Uptime Monitors — List all configured services natively, retrieve individual historical logs, create new endpoints to monitor (HTTP, Ping), edit configurations, or permanently delete monitors.
- Alert Contacts — Browse your configured alert notification targets (Email, Slack, Webhooks), create new distribution recipients, and manage who gets notified upon downtime.
- Metrics & History — Reset historical statistics for specific monitors quickly or retrieve the raw data array of up ratios and response times to graph or analyze.
- Account Setup — Extract UptimeRobot account usage to discover your remaining monitor slots limits and overall subscription features.
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Enter your main UptimeRobot API Key
- Start managing your uptime coverage from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client
Who is this for?
- DevOps Engineers — instantly setup standard monitoring checks for newly deployed microservices straight from the terminal/editor.
- SRE Teams — pull SLA metrics, uptime percentage stats, and incident reaction logs directly into your incident management context window.
- System Administrators — manage alert contacts by automatically adding new on-call employees to notification targets quickly.
- Founders & Indie Hackers — get a fast, bird's eye view summary report on your entire infrastructure uptime across all your apps without opening the dashboard.

Frequently asked questions
Can I automatically monitor a newly deployed application?
Absolutely. After you deploy a new service (for example, inside an IDE like Cursor), you can casually text the agent: Create an HTTP uptime monitor for https://new-service.com called 'Frontend Node'. The agent natively crafts the exact UptimeRobot POST configuration and injects the endpoints. Zero web dashboards needed.
How do I easily get an executive summary of server incidents across my company?
You don't need to sift manually through UptimeRobot's metrics arrays. Prompt your agent to get details for all monitors and summarize our SLA ratio. It will fetch the individual up-ratio indicators for every entry, average them, highlight any services below 99.9%, and present you a clean Markdown table summarizing the state of your whole operations in seconds.
Why should I reset my monitor logs by AI?
Oftentimes a development server has planned downtime, destroying your overall "green board" of perfect SLA. By asking the AI to reset logs for monitor ID X, you cleanly wipe the inaccurate or skewed history and start recording clean metrics instantly without disturbing real-time operations.
Which VS Code version supports MCP?
MCP support requires VS Code 1.99 or later with the GitHub Copilot extension. Ensure both are updated to the latest version. Older versions of Copilot may not expose the Agent mode toggle.
How do I switch to Agent mode?
Open the Copilot Chat panel and look for two mode options: "Ask" and "Agent". Click "Agent" to enable autonomous tool calling. In Ask mode, Copilot provides conversational answers but cannot invoke MCP tools.
Can I restrict which MCP tools Copilot can access?
Yes. VS Code shows a tool consent dialog before any MCP tool is invoked for the first time. You can also configure tool access policies at the organization level through GitHub Copilot settings.
Does MCP work in VS Code Remote or Codespaces?
Yes. MCP servers configured via .vscode/mcp.json work in Remote SSH, WSL, and GitHub Codespaces environments. The MCP connection is established from the remote host, so ensure the server URL is accessible from that environment.
MCP tools not available
Ensure you are in Agent mode in Copilot Chat. MCP tools only appear in Agent mode.
