🛠️ Installation

Prerequisites

Node.js 18 or higher
An active Uptime Agent account
Your Uptime Agent API key

To obtain your Uptime Agent API key:

Log in to your Uptime Agent Dashboard
Navigate to Account → API Keys
Create a new API key with appropriate permissions
Copy the generated key for use with the MCP server

Option 1: Quick Install via NPM (Recommended)

The fastest way to get started is with our setup command:

npx uptime-agent-mcp setup

This command will:

Install the MCP server
Configure it for use with Claude Desktop
Prompt you for your Uptime Agent API key
Set up all necessary configurations automatically

Option 2: Install via Smithery.ai

To install using Smithery.ai:

Create an account at smithery.ai
Get your personal key from your Smithery account
Run the following command:

npx -y @smithery/cli@latest install @AVIMBU/uptime_agent_mcp --client claude --key <personal_key>

Replace <personal_key> with your actual Smithery personal key.

# Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/AVIMBU/uptime_agent_mcp.git
cd uptime_agent_mcp

# Install dependencies

Configure with your API key by creating a .env file:

UPTIME_API_KEY=your-api-key-here
PORT=3000  # Optional, defaults to 3000

Start the server:

npm start
# or directly with
node dist/index.js

🤖 AI Assistant Integration

Setting Up with Claude Desktop

After installing using one of the methods above, your MCP server is automatically configured for Claude Desktop.

If you installed manually, add the following to your claude_desktop_config.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "uptime-agent": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "uptime-agent-mcp"
      ],
      "env": {
        "UPTIME_API_KEY": "<YOUR_API_KEY>"
      }
    }
  }
}

Alternatively, you can use Docker:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "uptime-agent": {
      "command": "docker",
      "args": [
        "run",
        "-i",
        "--rm",
        "-e",
        "UPTIME_API_KEY",
        "uptime-agent-mcp"
      ],
      "env": {
        "UPTIME_API_KEY": "<YOUR_API_KEY>"
      }
    }
  }
}
