Traversal MCP

An official Model Context Protocol server provided by Traversal that enables AI agents like Claude and Cursor to investigate production incidents across observability stacks. It supports agent-to-agent collaboration where the local agent provides context and executes commands while Traversal performs causal searches across metrics, logs, and traces to identify root causes and suggest next steps.

Endpoint and access

OAuth sign-in: the first time you connect, your client opens the vendor's own authorization prompt in a browser.

Checks and signals

Each line is separate evidence, not a trust score.

  • Passed Endpoint answered the live check ·
  • Passed Official MCP Registry namespace is tied to traversal.com ·
  • Passed Endpoint is on the registry namespace domain ·
  • Availability 1 of 1 checks passed in 30 days

What you can do with it

  • Run fast first-pass investigations across metrics, logs, and traces
  • Collaborate with local agents to execute commands like kubectl or read code files
  • Follow up on existing investigations using session IDs to refine diagnoses
  • Retrieve investigation results and post-mortem drafts

90-day uptime

A lightweight connection check about every six hours, sampled on hosts with many listings. It shows the server answered, not that its tools work.

Too few checks for a percentage yet (2 of 2 answered).

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 the remote server. Use --scope project to write .mcp.json for the repo.
Claude Code configuration
claude mcp add --transport http traversal-mcp https://api.prod.traversal.com/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 traversal-mcp --url https://api.prod.traversal.com/mcp/

Cursor

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

Cline

Merge this into cline_mcp_settings.json (Cline → MCP Servers → Configure).
Cline configuration
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "traversal-mcp": {
      "type": "streamableHttp",
      "url": "https://api.prod.traversal.com/mcp/",
      "disabled": false
    }
  }
}

VS Code

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

Claude Desktop

Open Claude Settings > Connectors > Add custom connector, enter this server URL and enable it for the conversation. This is a manual remote-connector handoff, not a desktop JSON configuration.
Claude Desktop configuration
https://api.prod.traversal.com/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": {
    "traversal-mcp": {
      "serverUrl": "https://api.prod.traversal.com/mcp/"
    }
  }
}
