Overview
Uptime Kuma Agent is a production-grade Agent and Model Context Protocol (MCP) server designed to interface directly with Agent for interacting with Uptime Kuma API.
Key Features
- Consolidated Action-Routed MCP Tools: Minimizes token overhead and eliminates tool bloat in LLM contexts by grouping methods into optimized, togglable tool modules.
- Enterprise-Grade Security: Comprehensive support for Eunomia policies, OIDC token delegation, and granular execution context tracking.
- Integrated Graph Agent: Built-in Pydantic AI agent supporting the Agent Control Protocol (ACP) and standard Web interfaces (AG-UI).
- Native Telemetry & Tracing: Out-of-the-box OpenTelemetry exports and native Langfuse tracing.

2 action-routed tool(s) (default) · 88 verbose 1:1 tool(s). Each is enabled unless its <DOMAIN>TOOL toggle is set false; MCP_TOOL_MODE selects the surface (condensed default · verbose 1:1 · both). Auto-generated — do not edit.
Detailed tool schemas, parameter shapes, and validation constraints are preserved in docs/index.md.
Detailed Tool Actions Mapping
The action-routed tools wrap complex calls behind a simple, unified parameters scheme:
1. uptime_kuma_monitors
Manage uptime kuma monitors operations. Action parameter must be one of:
get_monitors: List all monitors.get_monitor: Fetch a single monitor details by ID (inparams_json).add_monitor: Create a new monitor.edit_monitor: Modify an existing monitor.delete_monitor: Delete a monitor by ID.pause_monitor: Pause monitoring for a specific ID.resume_monitor: Resume monitoring for a specific ID.
2. uptime_kuma_status
Retrieve status and analytics. Action parameter must be one of:
get_heartbeats: Fetch monitor heartbeat records.info: Retrieve system stats and general status info.
Dynamic Tool Selection & Visibility
This MCP server supports dynamic toolset selection and visibility filtering at runtime. This allows you to restrict the set of exposed tools in order to prevent blowing up the LLM's context window.
You can configure tool filtering via multiple input channels:
- CLI Arguments: Pass
--toolsor--toolsets(or their disabled counterparts--disabled-toolsand--disabled-toolsets) during startup. - Environment Variables: Define standard environment variables:
MCP_ENABLED_TOOLS/MCP_DISABLED_TOOLSMCP_ENABLED_TAGS/MCP_DISABLED_TAGS
- HTTP SSE Request Headers: Pass custom headers during transport initialization:
x-mcp-enabled-tools/x-mcp-disabled-toolsx-mcp-enabled-tags/x-mcp-disabled-tags
- HTTP SSE Request Query Parameters: Append query parameters directly to your transport connection URL:
?tools=tool1,tool2?tags=tag1
When query strings or parameters are supplied, an LLM-free Knowledge Graph resolution layer (using DynamicToolOrchestrator) matches query intents against known tool tags, names, or descriptions, with safe fallback and automated 24-hour background cache refreshing.
MCP Configuration Examples
Install the slim
[mcp]extra. All examples installuptime-kuma-agent[mcp]— the MCP-server extra that pulls only the FastMCP / FastAPI tooling (agent-utilities[mcp]). It deliberately excludes the heavy agent runtime (pydantic-ai, the epistemic-graph engine,dspy,llama-index), souvx/ container installs are far smaller. Use the full[agent]extra only when you need the integrated Pydantic AI agent.

Additional Deployment Options
uptime-kuma-agent can also run as a local container (Docker / Podman / uv) or be
consumed from a remote deployment. The
Deployment guide has full, copy-paste
mcp_config.json for all four transports — stdio, streamable-http,
local container / uv, and remote URL:
- Local container / uv — launch the server from
mcp_config.jsonviauvx,docker run, orpodman run, or point at a local streamable-http container byurl. - Remote URL — connect to a server deployed behind Caddy at
http://uptime-mcp.arpa/mcpusing the"url"key.
Agent
This repository features a fully integrated Pydantic AI Graph Agent. It communicates over the Agent Control Protocol (ACP) and interacts seamlessly with the Agent Web UI (AG-UI) and Terminal interface.
Running the Agent CLI
To start the interactive command-line agent:
# Set credentials
export UPTIME_KUMA_URL="http://localhost:3001"
export AUTH_TYPE="password"
export UPTIME_KUMA_USERNAME="admin"
export UPTIME_KUMA_PASSWORD="your-password"
# Run the agent server
uptime-agent --provider openai --model-id gpt-4o

Security & Governance
Built directly upon the enterprise-ready agent-utilities core, standard security parameters are fully supported:
Access Control & Policy Enforcement
- Eunomia Policies: Fine-grained, policy-driven tool authorization. Supports
none, localembedded(mcp_policies.json), or centralizedremotemodes. - OIDC Token Delegation: Compliant with RFC 8693 token exchange for flowing authenticating user credentials from Web UI / ACP → Agent → MCP.
- Scoped Credentials: Execution context runs restricted to the specific caller identity.

Container images (:mcp vs :agent)
One multi-stage docker/Dockerfile builds two right-sized images, selected by --target:
| Image tag | Build target | Contents | Entrypoint |
|---|---|---|---|
knucklessg1/uptime-kuma-agent:mcp |
--target mcp |
uptime-kuma-agent[mcp] — slim, no engine/pydantic-ai/dspy/llama-index/tree-sitter |
uptime-mcp |
knucklessg1/uptime-kuma-agent:latest |
--target agent (default) |
uptime-kuma-agent[agent] — full agent runtime + epistemic-graph engine |
uptime-agent |
docker build --target mcp -t knucklessg1/uptime-kuma-agent:mcp docker/ # slim MCP server
docker build --target agent -t knucklessg1/uptime-kuma-agent:latest docker/ # full agent
docker/mcp.compose.yml runs the slim :mcp server; docker/agent.compose.yml runs the
agent (:latest) with a co-located :mcp sidecar.
Knowledge-graph database (epistemic-graph)
The full agent ([agent] / :latest) embeds the epistemic-graph engine (pulled in
transitively via agent-utilities[agent]). For production — or to share one knowledge graph
across multiple agents — run epistemic-graph as its own database container and point the
agent at it instead of embedding it. Deployment recipes (single-node + Raft HA), connection
config, and the full database architecture (with diagrams) are documented in the
epistemic-graph deployment guide.
The slim [mcp] server does not require the database.
Documentation
The complete documentation is published as the official documentation site and is the recommended reference for installation, deployment, and day-to-day operation.

Deploy with agent-os-genesis
This package can be provisioned for you — skill-guided — by the agent-os-genesis
universal skill (its single-package deploy mode): it picks your install method, seeds
secrets to OpenBao/Vault (or .env), trusts your enterprise CA, registers the MCP
server, and verifies it — the same machinery that stands up the whole Agent OS, narrowed
to just this package. Ask your agent to "deploy uptime-kuma-agent with agent-os-genesis".
| Install mode | Command |
|---|---|
| Bare-metal, prod (PyPI) | uvx uptime-mcp · or uv tool install uptime-kuma-agent |
| Bare-metal, dev (editable) | uv pip install -e ".[all]" · or pip install -e ".[all]" |
| Container, prod | deploy knucklessg1/uptime-kuma-agent:latest via docker-compose / swarm / podman / podman-compose / kubernetes |
| Container, dev (editable) | deploy docker/compose.dev.yml (source-mounted at /src; edits live on restart) |
Secrets are read-existing + seeded via vault_sync — you are only prompted for what's missing.
