What you can do

The MCP server exposes 14 tools that let your AI assistant read and act on your monitoring data. Just ask in natural language - the AI figures out which tools to call.

  • "List my servers and show any that are offline"
  • "Show me all open alerts and summarise what's going on"
  • "What security events happened in the last hour?"
  • "Acknowledge alert abc-123"
  • "Give me a summary of my monitoring infrastructure"
  • "Are any of my Docker containers down?"
