About pingpulse
pingpulse is a local bridge to Hyperping's hosted uptime-monitoring MCP server, for agents working with monitoring and incident response. Its tools cover monitors, outages, on-call schedules, status pages, maintenance, logs, and related project views.
Key features
- 01List, inspect, and control monitors
- 02Review and manage outages
- 03Read uptime and response-time metrics
- 04Inspect on-call schedules and escalation policies
- 05Manage status pages and incidents
- 06Search logs and schedule maintenance
Use cases
- 01Review monitor health and performance
- 02Acknowledge, escalate, or resolve an outage
- 03Publish status-page incident updates
- 04Investigate logs and plan maintenance windows
MCP support
Exposes Hyperping monitoring tools to MCP clients through a local bridge. It forwards tool calls to the hosted Hyperping MCP server and passes through its replies.
Configuration
Local server config is the same for every client. Copy it into your client’s MCP config file.

Details
From the project READMEpingpulse
pingpulse is a small local bridge to the hosted Hyperping uptime-monitoring MCP server. It puts the whole monitoring workspace behind one tool surface: the monitors watching your sites and APIs, the outages they produce, the people who get woken up when something breaks, and the public status pages that tell your users what is happening.
From here an agent can list and inspect monitors, pause or resume them, run a check on demand, read uptime, response-time, MTTR and MTTA figures, work through outages (acknowledge, escalate, resolve), review on-call schedules and escalation policies, manage status pages and post or update their incidents, schedule maintenance windows, search logs and log dashboards, and pull project reports, healthchecks, servers, browser runs and the audit log. The surface is 69 tools, exactly as captured from the live endpoint. No payment, billing or plan tool exists in it.
The bridge holds no monitoring data of its own. It answers the tool list locally, exactly as captured, and forwards each tool call upstream, returning whatever comes back untouched.
Tools
Grouped by area; required arguments are listed where
the captured schema carries them. Tools not listed
with required arguments take none that are required
(26 of the 69 carry no required key at all in the
capture, and they are served that way).
- Monitors:
list_monitors,get_monitor(uuid),create_monitor(name,url),update_monitor(uuid),pause_monitor(uuid),resume_monitor(uuid),search_monitors_by_name(query),get_status_summary. - Outages and alerts:

Configuration
HYPERPING_MCP_URL(optional) — override the upstream endpoint. Defaults tohttps://api.hyperping.io/v1/mcp. (The override hook is this rebuild's own labelled reconstruction.)HYPERPING_API_KEY(optional) — when set, every upstream request carries anAuthorization: Bearer <key>header with your Hyperping API key. When it is not set, no key header is sent; the captured surface answered its tool list without a key. (TheAuthorizationheader name is pinned by the original's registry record, which declares it a required secret for the remote; the record pins no package env name, so the Bearer form and forwarding the key from this env var are labelled reconstructions.)
Forwarding mechanics
On the first tool call the client opens a streamable
HTTP session upstream: a JSON-RPC initialize
request (protocolVersion 2025-03-26, clientInfo
name pingpulse), then a
notifications/initialized notification, then the
tools/call request carrying the caller's arguments
unchanged. When the upstream answers initialize
with an Mcp-Session-Id header, that value rides on
every later request of the session, which is reused
for the life of the process. Replies may arrive as
plain JSON or as server-sent events; both are read.
Successful upstream results pass through verbatim,
including any isError flag the upstream sets.
Failures — a JSON-RPC error, a non-2xx status, an
unreadable response, or a request that cannot be
completed — come back as an isError result whose
text starts with pingpulse error: (this rendering
is this rebuild's own labelled reconstruction).
CLI
Each tool is also a subcommand taking one JSON argument string:
npx @reneturcios/pingpulse list_monitors '{"status":"down"}'
npx @reneturcios/pingpulse get_monitor '{"uuid":"mon_..."}'
npx @reneturcios/pingpulse create_monitor '{"name":"API","url":"https://example.com/health"}'
npx @reneturcios/pingpulse get_status_summary '{}'
npx @reneturcios/pingpulse --version
Exit codes: 0 on success, 1 on an isError
result, 2 on a usage error.
MCP server
npx -y @reneturcios/pingpulse mcp
MCP client config:
{
"mcpServers": {
"pingpulse": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@reneturcios/pingpulse", "mcp"]
}
}
}
Docker
docker run -i ghcr.io/cloudcorprecords/pingpulse
docker run --rm ghcr.io/cloudcorprecords/pingpulse --version
The container's default command is mcp, so the first
form is a stdio MCP server; any other arguments reach
the CLI normally.
Development
npm install
npm run build
npm test
npm run dev
The test suite runs entirely against a stubbed JSON-RPC upstream — no live network calls.

From what the protocol is to installing your first server, these answers cover most first questions.
An open protocol that defines how AI applications connect to external tools and data in a uniform way. Clients talk to the model; MCP servers provide tools, resources and prompt templates. They exchange standard messages, so one server can be reused by many clients.
