Downtester MCP MCP server

The Downtester MCP server provides agents with tool access to live service status data, including active incidents and outage history. It uses HTTP transport and authenticates with dtk_ keys, offering tools to check service status, search services, list active incidents, and retrieve outage history for up to 90 days.

Endpoint and access

API key: create a key with the vendor first; your client sends it as an authorization header on every request.

What you can do with it

  • Check live canonical status for a specific service
  • Search for services by name or slug
  • List currently open incidents across the network
  • Retrieve daily outage history for a service

Connect from your client

Each snippet registers the same endpoint; pick the client you use.

This server is operated by the named third party. Listing and endpoint checks are not an endorsement or a security audit. Review the operator's permissions, terms, and data handling before connecting. How listings are checked and corrected.

Claude Code

Run this once in a terminal. It registers a Streamable HTTP server. Use --scope project to write .mcp.json for the repo.
Claude Code configuration
claude mcp add --transport http downtester-mcp https://dd-dp.downtester.com/v1/mcp

Codex

Run this once. Codex stores MCP servers in ~/.codex/config.toml (or .codex/config.toml in a trusted project).
Codex configuration
codex mcp add downtester-mcp --url https://dd-dp.downtester.com/v1/mcp

Cursor

Merge this server into .cursor/mcp.json in your project, then enable downtester-mcp in your MCP settings.
Cursor configuration
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "downtester-mcp": {
      "url": "https://dd-dp.downtester.com/v1/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Cline

Merge this into cline_mcp_settings.json (Cline → MCP Servers → Configure). The type must be streamableHttp for a remote HTTP server.
Cline configuration
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "downtester-mcp": {
      "type": "streamableHttp",
      "url": "https://dd-dp.downtester.com/v1/mcp",
      "disabled": false
    }
  }
}

VS Code

Merge this server into .vscode/mcp.json. Use MCP: List Servers to start downtester-mcp and inspect its tools.
VS Code configuration
{
  "servers": {
    "downtester-mcp": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://dd-dp.downtester.com/v1/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Gemini CLI

Run this once. It writes .gemini/settings.json in the current project; pass --scope user for ~/.gemini/settings.json.
Gemini CLI configuration
gemini mcp add --transport http downtester-mcp https://dd-dp.downtester.com/v1/mcp

Claude Desktop

Merge this into claude_desktop_config.json (macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/, Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\), then restart Claude Desktop.
Claude Desktop configuration
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "downtester-mcp": {
      "url": "https://dd-dp.downtester.com/v1/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Windsurf

Merge this into ~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json, then refresh MCP in Cascade. Windsurf remote servers use serverUrl, not url.
Windsurf configuration
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "downtester-mcp": {
      "serverUrl": "https://dd-dp.downtester.com/v1/mcp"
    }
  }
}
