MCP Server: Performance, Logs, and More

AppSignal MCP graduates from beta to preview with this release.

The AppSignal MCP server now exposes 24 tools across seven areas — up from 18 — with two new capability areas and expanded write access throughout.

What's new:

• Performance: Ask your agent which actions are slowest, pull traces for a specific action, inspect full span trees, and drill into individual spans. Works with both sample-based performance data and OpenTelemetry traces.
• Logging: Search log lines using AppSignal's expression syntax, and set up log processing rules directly from your editor: create filters, trigger alerts, extract metrics from log lines, and control execution order.
• Anomaly triggers: In addition to listing triggers and alerts, you can now create, update, and archive anomaly detection triggers without leaving your editor.
• OAuth support: The MCP server now supports OAuth authentication, which unlocks GitHub Copilot CLI support.

Token permissions now include the performance and logging toolsets alongside app, exceptions, metrics, anomalies, and dashboards.
