Overview

AI-generated overview

Remote AlertChecker server that lets an assistant create AI-monitored web alerts from plain-English statements and email you when they come true.

What you can do
  • Create alerts from a yes/no question or natural-language statement, such as a restock, weather, stock price or earthquake condition
  • Have AlertChecker monitor relevant web information and notify you by email, optionally with push notifications
  • Set these alerts up directly from conversation in any MCP-compatible assistant instead of using the web app
When to use it
Use it when you want ongoing monitoring of a web condition and a notification when it changes, rather than having to ask again. Good for restock checks, price thresholds, weather or event conditions you would otherwise poll manually.
Requirements
A remote MCP endpoint over Streamable HTTP; no local package or runtime. OAuth 2.0 with PKCE and dynamic client registration, so no manual API key is needed. You sign in on first connection with Google or a magic email link, and an email address is needed for notifications.
Before you install
Creating an alert writes data to your AlertChecker account and starts ongoing monitoring that sends email or push notifications. Sign-in is delegated to Google or an email magic link, so the assistant acts on your account. Alerts are evaluated against web sources chosen by the service, and notification content comes from those third parties.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open Alertchecker Mcp in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
  2. Connect the required credentials. They are stored privately and never shown on public pages.
  3. Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.

Web executable via Streamable HTTP. Remote servers run from the web runtime once configured in a workspace.

Use with an agent

Paste this prompt into Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or another agent — or into SourceWeft chat. The agent reads this server's install guide, shows you its publisher, endpoint and sign-in, and adds it to your client once you agree. Keys never go into a command.

Read https://sourceweft.com/mcp/io.github.steve-chambers%2Falertchecker-mcp/install.md and connect the MCP server it describes to my client. Before changing any config, show me its publisher, endpoint and sign-in method and wait for my OK. Never put an API key in a command or in a file I would commit; ask me where it should come from.

Read the install guide the agent follows

Other MCP clients

Add this to your client's mcpServers config. The client completes OAuth sign-in on first connect.

README

AlertChecker MCP Server

Gives any MCP-compatible AI assistant (ChatGPT, Claude, and others) the ability to create AI-monitored web alerts on your behalf. Then you will be told when something happens instead of having to ask — just say "Alert me when..."

What it does

AlertChecker watches the web for you and emails you when a plain-English statement becomes true. Once you connect this MCP server, any supporting AI assistant can create these alerts directly from natural conversation.

Example prompts:

  • "Alert me when the iPhone 16 Pro is back in stock at apple.com"
  • "Let me know whenever it's going to rain in London tomorrow"
  • "Email me when Tesla stock drops below $200"
  • "Tell me if there's an earthquake over 4.0 magnitude in California"

Tools
