Before you connect

Questions about Better Stack.

The practical details behind the request, access and result.

Can the Better Stack MCP help me during a production outage?

Yes, it allows your AI agent to pull incident details, check on-call schedules, and acknowledge alerts directly from your chat interface, which helps you triage faster.

How does the Better Stack MCP handle on-call schedules?

It exposes your on-call routing calendars so you can ask your agent exactly who is on duty for any given shift or team rotation.

Can I use the Better Stack MCP to see my heartbeat status?

Yes, your agent can check the status of your cron heartbeats and background workers to ensure your passive tracking endpoints are running.

Does the Better Stack MCP support public status pages?

It can read your public-facing status dashboards, allowing you to quickly check what information is being shared with your customers.

Can my AI agent acknowledge alerts with the Better Stack MCP?

Yes, your agent can acknowledge ongoing incidents to halt the paging sequence while you work on a resolution.

Is the Better Stack MCP good for checking DNS probes?

It can retrieve the definitions and current status of all your active monitors, including DNS probes and HTTP endpoint pings.

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.
