outage-mcp

Ask your AI if Cloudflare is down.

An MCP server that gives Claude, Cursor, and any MCP client live outage data from whatbroke.today, which monitors 100+ service status pages continuously. No API keys, no signup.

You:    Is GitHub down right now?
Claude: GitHub has 1 active incident: [MAJOR] Git operations degraded...
        first seen 14:02 UTC. Details: whatbroke.today/incident/...

Install

Claude Desktop / Claude Code — add to your MCP config:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "outage": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "outage-mcp"]
    }
  }
}

Claude Code one-liner:

claude mcp add outage -- npx -y outage-mcp

Works the same in Cursor, Windsurf, and any MCP-capable client.

Tools

Tool	What it answers
`whats_down`	"What's broken right now?" Active incidents first, then recently resolved.
`check_service`	"Is Stripe down?" Status and recent history for one service.
`get_incident`	Full detail for one incident, including AI root-cause analysis when available.
`outage_stats`	"What broke most this week?" Leaderboard and totals.
`list_services`	The 100+ services being monitored.

Notes

Data comes from whatbroke.today, which aggregates official status pages and adds AI summaries and RCAs.
The upstream API is rate-limited to 5 requests/min per IP; this server caches responses for 60 seconds, which in practice keeps you under it.
Severity resolved means the provider closed the incident. Everything else is treated as active.
