AppSignal MCP is now in Claude's connector directory

Oct 20, 2026

Until now, connecting AppSignal to Claude on the web or desktop meant configuring a custom connector. AppSignal is now listed in Claude's connector directory, so you can add it from Claude's settings instead:

  1. In Claude, go to Settings → Customize/Connectors → Discover tab.
  2. Search for AppSignal.
  3. Select Connect.
  4. Authorize AppSignal.

The Claude app setup guide walks you through each step.

Also new:

  • Charts in Claude and ChatGPT: get_metrics_timeseries results render as an interactive AppSignal chart in hosts that support MCP Apps. In text-only clients, such as Claude Code and Cursor, your agent answers from the same data in Markdown.
  • Uptime monitors: manage_uptime_monitor creates, updates, and deletes uptime monitors. When a monitored URL is slow, your agent can show how long each step of the check took, such as the DNS lookup, the connection, and waiting for the server to respond. It gets these timings from the uptime_monitor_timing metric.
  • Fewer round trips:
    • get_traces filters traces by tag and looks up a trace by trace_id alone.
    • If you ask for logs over a longer period than one query can cover, get_log_lines returns the newest part and tells your agent which time range to request next, so it can keep reading back through your logs.
    • get_incident now shows the ID of each note on an incident, so your agent can update a note you wrote, instead of adding a new note.

See the MCP tool reference for every tool and parameter.

Missing something? Ask your agent to call get_more_tools. We read those requests, and they shape what we add next.
