Check updown.io uptime checks, downtimes, response metrics and status pages, and create checks.
The publisher's own server: Ably MCP by usefulapi
Hosted MCP server for updown.io uptime monitoring: inspect checks, downtimes, metrics and status pages, and create or change checks and alerts.
Web executable via Streamable HTTP. Remote servers run from the web runtime once configured in a workspace.
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.usefulapi%2Fupdown-io/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.Add this to your client's mcpServers config.

}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
https://updown-io.usefulapi.io/mcp.claude mcp add --transport http updown-io https://updown-io.usefulapi.io/mcp, then run /mcp to log in.Add only the URL. Do not add an Authorization header or an API key to the client config: the server signs you in with OAuth, and the login page asks for your updown.io credentials.
Step-by-step setup, where to find your credentials, and FAQ: https://usefulapi.io/updown-io/
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.
read tools are read-only; write tools mutate data (clients should confirm them); meta tools report usage, manage your subscription or send a feature request.
Each paid plan covers this server only. Ask your AI to run updown_upgrade and choose Pro or Pro+, billed monthly or yearly (it returns a Stripe Checkout link). If you already have Pro, ask to change it to Pro+. The change requires your confirmation, keeps your billing interval and charges the price difference for the rest of the period immediately. Cancel any time with updown_cancel_subscription: your paid plan continues to the end of the paid period, with no refund for the current period, and asking to resume the same plan with updown_upgrade before then undoes the cancel. Or write to [email protected].

List checks
List all monitoring checks on the account with their status (down, uptime, last_status, error), period, SSL certificate and domain-expiry info. Optionally filter client-side by status or a text match on URL/alias. updown: GET /api/checks.
searchstatusGet one check
Fetch a single check by token, optionally with the last hour of performance metrics and/or the detailed results of the last 5 requests. updown: GET /api/checks/:token.
tokenrequiredmetricsresultsList a check's downtimes
List the downtimes of one check, newest first, 100 per page: error, started_at, ended_at, duration (seconds) and a details URL. updown: GET /api/checks/:token/downtimes.
pagetokenrequiredresultsGet a check's metrics
Get aggregated metrics for one check over a time range: uptime, apdex, timings (redirect/namelookup/connection/handshake/response/total, ms) and request counts by response time. Optionally group by 'time' or by 'host' (monitoring location). Data is hourly (daily after 2 days, monthly after 40 days); the range must span at least one hour. Uptime is not returned when grouping. updown: GET /api/checks/:token/metrics.
tofromgrouptokenrequiredFind checks with problems
One-call health overview across every check: which are DOWN (since when, error), which have an invalid SSL certificate, which certificates or domains expire within N days, and which checks are paused or muted. Built from GET /api/checks.
ssl_daysdomain_daysList alert recipients
List the alert recipients/channels on the account (email, sms, slack, telegram, webhook, zapier, ...). The `id` (e.g. email:3719031852) is what check `recipients` take. updown: GET /api/recipients.
Takes no parameters.
List status pages
List the account's status pages: token, public URL, name, description, visibility (public/protected/private) and the ordered check tokens shown. updown: GET /api/status_pages.
Takes no parameters.
List monitoring nodes
List updown.io's monitoring/webhook servers keyed by location code (lan, mia, tor, rbx, fra, cap, hel, sin, tok, syd) with IPv4, IPv6, city, country and coordinates. Public — no API key needed. updown: GET /api/nodes.
Takes no parameters.
List monitoring node IPs
List updown.io's server IP addresses — e.g. to allowlist the monitors in a firewall. Choose all, ipv4 or ipv6. Public — no API key needed. updown: GET /api/nodes/ips, /api/nodes/ipv4, /api/nodes/ipv6.
familyCreate a check
Add a new monitoring check. The type (http, https, tcp, tcps, icmp) is inferred from the URL scheme; pass type 'pulse' (and no URL) for a cron/heartbeat check. Each check consumes updown credits while enabled. Requires the read/write API key. updown: POST /api/checks.
urltypealiasperiodapdex_tenabledhttp_bodyhttp_verbpublishedmute_untilrecipientsstring_match+2 moreUpdate a check
Change a check's settings — URL, period, alias, string match, recipients, headers, locations — or pause/resume it (enabled) or mute its alerts (mute_until). Only the fields you pass are changed. Caution: URLs returned by a read-only key hide basic-auth credentials; re-sending such a URL erases them. Requires the read/write API key. updown: PUT /api/checks/:token.

Add an alert recipient: an email address, phone number (sms), webhook URL, Slack-compatible incoming-webhook URL, or Microsoft Teams webhook URL. Returns the new (or already-existing) recipient with its id. By default it is selected on ALL existing checks; pass selected=false to add it unattached. Slack/Telegram/Zapier/Statuspage integrations must be set up in the web UI. Requires the read/write API key. updown: POST /api/recipients.

Create a status page showing the given checks, in order. Returns its token and URL. Requires the read/write API key. updown: POST /api/status_pages.

Change a status page's checks (replaces the list, order respected), name, description, visibility or access key. Only the fields you pass are changed. Requires the read/write API key. updown: PUT /api/status_pages/:token.

How complete this listing is, computed from the registry entry, the endpoint and public sources. Not a rating of the server and not a statement that it is safe or working today: reachability is a dated check, and no installs or reviews go into the score.
