We've just launched the AppSignal MCP Server. This new integration marks the start of our mission to give developers practical value with AI, not hype.

Our MCP (Model Context Protocol) server helps you debug and optimize code faster with AppSignal Insights right in your coding tools, so you can go from "There's a bug?" to "Fix deployed", all from within the tools you already use. No more context switching.

What Is the AppSignal MCP Server?

The AppSignal MCP Server connects your application monitoring data directly to AI-powered developer tools. It helps answer critical questions like:

• What's broken or slow in my app?
• How can I fix this error?
• Which part of my codebase is causing this performance issue?
• Where are anomalies happening in production?

By converging metrics, logs, and anomalies into actionable insights, AppSignal makes debugging less about guesswork and more about productivity.

Seamless Integration With the Tools You Love

Because AppSignal follows the MCP standard, it should work with any MCP-enabled tool, meaning you can access powerful performance insights inside the editors and AI assistants you already use, such as:

• Claude AI
• VS Code
• Windsurf
• Cursor
• Zed

With AppSignal, insights come to you inside your workflow: no app switching, no disruption.

Debug Smarter With Unified Insights

AppSignal's MCP server unifies monitoring data into a single feed for your AI-powered tools. This makes it easier to get to the root cause of issues and understand how and why your app is performing the way it is.

To provide you with comprehensive, reliable, and robust visibility into your app, our MCP server makes the following insights available to MCP-enabled tools:

• Error and exception tracking
• Performance metrics
• Anomaly detection
• Health check-ins
• Uptime monitoring
• Application logging

Easy to Install, Even Easier to Use: Set Up AppSignal MCP in Minutes

Getting started with AppSignal's MCP server is easy; the setup takes only a few minutes. First, make sure your app is set up with AppSignal and has an MCP token.

Below are example configurations for Claude, Cursor, Windsurf, and Zed:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "appsignal": {
      "command": "docker",
      "args": [
        "run",
        "-i",
        "--rm",
        "-e",
        "APPSIGNAL_API_KEY",
        "appsignal/mcp"
      ],
      "env": {
        "APPSIGNAL_API_KEY": "your_api_key_here"
      }
    }
  }
}

More Focus on Coding, Less on Context Switching

We've designed AppSignal to be a developer-friendly monitoring tool. We focus on usability and value, avoiding information overload and unnecessary clickbait features, which is why we haven't shoved AI buttons all over our UI.

We believe the future of AI-powered software development lies in information convergence. AppSignal's MCP server brings all the insights you need where they matter most, so you can spend more time coding productively, and less time tool-jumping and context switching.

Start Debugging Smarter Today

AppSignal is an APM built by developers, for developers. We use our own tools daily to ensure they deliver value.

With the new AppSignal MCP Server, you can bring error tracking, performance metrics, and anomaly detection straight into your coding workflow. Debug faster, reduce context switching, and stay focused on building great software.
