LiveStatus MCP server

Claude, Cursor, and ChatGPT can now manage your incidents directly via the LiveStatus MCP server.

We shipped an MCP server. If you're running Claude Desktop, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client, you can now manage incidents without touching the dashboard.

Six tools are available:

  • list_pages — get all your status pages
  • get_status — current status for a page
  • list_incidents — all incidents, optionally filtered by status
  • create_incident — open a new incident with title, severity, and body
  • update_incident — change the status, severity, or body of an existing incident
  • resolve_incident — close it out

Auth is a plain API key. Generate one from Settings > API Keys, drop it in your MCP config, and you're connected.

The practical upshot: you can tell Claude "create a degraded performance incident for the API, severity medium, say we're investigating" and it happens. No browser tab, no context switch. For teams already living in AI-native tooling, this is the fastest incident workflow we've ever offered.

The MCP server is open source and ships as a separate npm package. Docs are at the usual place.
