Netdata's own MCP server, built into the Netdata monitoring agent and also offered by Netdata Cloud.
What it does
Netdata's own MCP server, built into the Netdata monitoring agent and also offered by Netdata Cloud. AI clients can look up nodes, search metrics, alerts and alert history, run queries with grouping and anomaly detection, score metrics to help find a root cause, and, through a Netdata Parent, run system functions such as process or network connection lists and explore logs. Each Agent or Parent from version 2.6 serves it on port 19999 over streamable HTTP, SSE or WebSocket with a locally generated key; the Cloud endpoint covers every node in a space and needs an API token with the mcp scope and a paid plan. Stdio-only clients need a bridge.
Capabilities
- Discover monitored nodes and their metrics
- Query metrics with aggregation and anomaly detection
- Read alerts and alert history
- Run system functions and explore logs through a Parent
