Overview

AI-generated overview

Lets an assistant read updown.io uptime checks, downtimes, metrics and status pages, and create or update checks, recipients and status pages.

What it does
A hosted MCP server for updown.io, a website uptime monitoring service. Read tools list checks, fetch a single check, list a check's downtimes, get response-time metrics, find checks with problems, and list alert recipients, status pages, monitoring nodes and node IPs. Write tools create and update checks, add alert recipients, and create or update status pages. Two meta tools report usage against the free-tier meter and manage a Pro upgrade.
When to use it
Useful when you want an assistant to answer questions about site uptime, recent downtime incidents or response-time trends, or to set up and adjust monitoring checks and status pages without opening the updown.io dashboard.
Requirements
A remote streamable HTTP endpoint; nothing is installed locally. You need an updown.io account and API key, entered on first connect (a read-only key for read tools, a read/write key to make changes). The key is stored per user by the hosted service.
Before you install
Write tools create or change checks, alert recipients and status pages, so confirm them before running. The server asks for your updown.io API key, which is validated and stored per user by the third-party host rather than kept in your config. The meta upgrade tool relates to a paid Pro plan at $9/mo or $90/yr; the free tier is limited to 100 tool calls per month.

README

updown.io MCP by usefulapi

Use updown.io from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP client — check uptime status, downtimes and response-time metrics, and create checks, recipients and status pages. Hosted, no local install: connect with your own updown.io credentials.

Live endpoint: https://updown-io.usefulapi.io/mcp · Homepage: https://usefulapi.io/updown-io

Add to Claude

json
{  "mcpServers": {    "updown-io": {      "url": "https://updown-io.usefulapi.io/mcp"    }  }}

On first connect you'll provide your updown.io API key (Settings > API keys; read-only key for reads, read/write key to make changes). They're validated, stored per-user, and scoped to you — no keys in config files.
