RealUptime MCP - Uptime, Status and Outage Intelligence for Agents¶

Remote MCP server (Streamable HTTP; keyed and keyless endpoints) - RealUptime wraps four products in one MCP surface: Status (public status pages and incident communication), Monitor (multi-region uptime monitoring), Errors (application error tracking) and Outages (free "Is X down?" checks on roughly 200 popular third-party services). The keyless public endpoint is probe-verified and served 7 tools with no signup.

Server type: Remote (Streamable HTTP, stateless)
Auth: Keyed endpoint (API key) for account operations; keyless public endpoint for outage intelligence
Endpoints: https://mcp.realuptime.io/mcp (keyed, probe-verified 401) and https://mcp.realuptime.io/public (keyless, probe-verified with 7 tools)
Tools: 7 public outage tools; account-scoped tools for monitors, incidents, status pages and errors
Pricing: Free read access included with every account; plans at realuptime.io
Category: Business Operations
Built by: RealUptime (realuptime.io); no public repo (private monorepo)

Why This Matters for Operators¶

"Is it us or is it them" is the most expensive question in incident response. RealUptime answers it from its own scheduled probe measurements - never scraped from vendor status pages - with every answer carrying its measurement time and a citation URL. The agent can check whether a third-party service, a shared-infrastructure layer or the internet at large is degraded before the team opens an internal war room.

The keyless endpoint is a genuine differentiator: an agent can answer outage questions with zero setup, and every account gets free read access to monitor status, incidents and third-party outage data before any paid plan.

Tools & Capabilities¶

Group	What the agent does
Outage checks (public)	is_service_down and get_regional_readings with per-region status, latency and measurement detail
Report volume	get_report_volume: how many people are reporting problems, by region, against trailing baselines
Incident history	list_recent_incidents with the most recent closed outage per service
Stack and internet health	get_stack for named service stacks; internet_weather and is_the_internet_down for shared-infrastructure incidents
Account operations (keyed)	Create and manage monitors, incidents, status pages and maintenance windows; search error issues

Installation¶

Keyless: point any Streamable HTTP client at the public endpoint with no headers. Keyed: create an API key in the RealUptime dashboard and use the account endpoint.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "realuptime-public": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://mcp.realuptime.io/public"
    }
  }
}

Configuration¶

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "realuptime": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://mcp.realuptime.io/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Attach the API key as the bearer authorization header on the keyed endpoint. Both endpoints are stateless Streamable HTTP with no SSE or session cookies; health checks run at https://mcp.realuptime.io/health.

Business Relevance¶

SRE and ops teams get "is it us or them" answers with citations before paging anyone.
Support teams check third-party service status while triaging customer tickets.
Agencies operate status pages and incident communication for clients from the agent.
Founders get a free, credential-less outage intelligence surface for the tools their stack depends on.

Integration with CorpusIQ¶

RealUptime tells the agent whether a dependent service is down; CorpusIQ tells it whether the business felt it. A composed workflow: the agent checks RealUptime outage signals, then pulls revenue, order and traffic data from CorpusIQ's Stripe, Shopify and GA4 connectors to quantify incident impact and feed the incident postmortem.

Limitations¶

Brand new listing (issue #3975, Sep 6, 2026); no public repository exists (private monorepo), so the guide relies on the vendor's documented surface and live probes.
The public endpoint covers the outage product; monitor, status page and error management require an account key.
Outage coverage is limited to the roughly 200 services RealUptime tracks plus its own internet-weather probes.
