Unverified: 6 categories

Categories scored 0 because we could not verify them: authentication we do not have, an unreachable endpoint, or not enough scan history. We only credit what we can confirm. Claim this server and supply a read-only token to verify it and lift the score.

Install

How do I install the HostTracker MCP server?

HostTracker is a hosted endpoint at https://mcp.host-tracker.com/mcp, so there is nothing to install locally. Ready-made configuration for Claude, Cursor, VS Code, Codex and 5 more is on this page, copied from each client's own documentation.

MCP tools · 65 exposed · ~7,341 tokens

The tools this component advertises to a client, with an estimated token cost for each. Expand a tool to see its parameters and schema. The per-tool counts are indicative and are not scored directly; the schema's total context footprint is one signal in Schema Quality & AI Usability. A tool's description is untrusted text the model reads on every call, which is what makes this list a security surface and not just an inventory: how tool poisoning works →

Tool Tokens
resume_job ~58

Continue a job whose state is 'interrupted' (the server running it died). Items already concluded are skipped. A job that is not interrupted, or whose kind cannot be resumed, is refused.

NameTypeReqDescription
idstringyesThe job id.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

resume_monitor ~29

Resume a paused monitor. Scope 'monitor:write'.

NameTypeReqDescription
idstringyesThe monitor id.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

run_instant_check ~291

Run a free instant website/host check from HostTracker's global monitoring locations and return per-location results. Requires a token with the 'check' scope (mint at Integrations → API, https://www.host-tracker.com/integrations/api). Starts the check, polls up to ~30s, and returns per-location status plus the public result-page URL; a check that is still running comes back partial with the ids to poll.

NameTypeReqDescription
devicestring|null–Device-emulation profile for a waterfall/pageSpeed check; one of the device tokens from list_check_types.
poolsstring|null–Comma-separated location pools to run from, e.g. 'europe,northamerica'. Unknown pool names are refused by the API, which names the offender.
strictTlsboolean–http checks only: validate the TLS handshake strictly. An untrusted root, an incomplete chain, a hostname mismatch or a self-signed certificate fails the handshake and is recorded on the result's TLS…
typestring|null–Check type; one of the tokens from list_check_types (default http). 'pageSpeed' is accepted as an alias for 'waterfall'.
urlstringyesThe site or host to check, e.g. example.com or https://example.com

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

send_contact_confirmation ~64

Send (or resend) the confirmation code to an unconfirmed contact. Scope 'contact:write'. This delivers a real message to the address; the code itself is never returned to the agent — ask the user for it.

NameTypeReqDescription
idstringyesThe contact id.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

subscribe_contact ~126

Subscribe a contact to a monitor. Scope 'monitor:write'. Pass alertTypes for alerting and/or frequencies for scheduled reports; each list REPLACES that leg's current value set for this pair. The contact must be confirmed before anything is actually delivered.

NameTypeReqDescription
alertTypesstring|null–Comma-separated alert types: up, down, repeatedlyDown.
contactIdstringyesThe contact id.
frequenciesstring|null–Comma-separated report frequencies: daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly, yearly.
monitorIdstringyesThe monitor id.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

test_contact ~78

Send a real test alert to a confirmed contact and report how the delivery ended. Scope 'contact:write'. This actually messages the person and may cost account balance for sms/voice — ask first.

NameTypeReqDescription
alertTypestring|null–Which alert to simulate: up, down or repeatedlyDown.
idstringyesThe contact id.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

test_webhook ~78

Send a synthetic test delivery and report the endpoint's answer. Scope 'webhook:write'. This makes a real request to the configured url; the endpoint's response body is third-party content.

NameTypeReqDescription
eventNamestring|null–Event name to simulate, e.g. 'monitor.down'.
idstringyesThe webhook id.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

unsubscribe_contact ~101

Remove a contact's subscription to a monitor. Scope 'monitor:write'. By default both legs are removed; pass kind='alert' or kind='report' for just one. Confirm with the user — they stop being notified.

NameTypeReqDescription
contactIdstringyesThe contact id.
kindstring|null–Which leg to remove: 'alert', 'report' or 'both' (default).
monitorIdstringyesThe monitor id.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

update_contact ~100

Partially update a contact. Scope 'contact:write'. Changing the address re-triggers confirmation.

NameTypeReqDescription
addressstring|null–New address.
alertDelayinteger|null–New alert delay in minutes.
groupedAlertsboolean|null–Group several alerts into one message.
idstringyesThe contact id.
languagestring|null–New message language code.
namestring|null–New display name.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

update_contact_group ~78

Rename a contact group and/or REPLACE its membership. Scope 'contact:write'. A members list replaces the whole set, it does not merge.

NameTypeReqDescription
idstringyesThe group id.
itemsJsonstring|null–JSON array of members that replaces the current set.
namestring|null–New group name.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

update_maintenance ~154

Reschedule a maintenance window or change what it covers. Scope 'monitor:write'. Only the arguments you pass are changed; a monitorIds list REPLACES the current coverage.

NameTypeReqDescription
durationSecinteger|null–New length in seconds.
enabledboolean|null–Enable or disable the window without deleting it.
frominteger|null–New start instant, Unix seconds.
idstringyesThe maintenance window id.
monitorIdsstring|null–Comma-separated monitor ids that replace the current coverage.
namestring|null–New name.
timezonestring|null–New IANA timezone.
tointeger|null–New end instant, Unix seconds.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

update_monitor ~162

addTagsstring|null–Comma-separated tags to add.
idstringyesThe monitor id.
intervalinteger|null–New check interval in minutes.
namestring|null–New display name.
poolsstring|null–Comma-separated location pools that replace the current pinning.

titlestring|null–New page title.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

update_webhook ~126

Change a webhook's url, events, scope, name, or enabled state. Scope 'webhook:write'. Re-enabling an auto-disabled webhook also clears its failure counter.

idstringyesThe webhook id.
monitorIdsstring|null–Comma-separated monitor ids that replace the current scope.

Common questions

What is the HostTracker MCP server?

HostTracker is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as io.github.HostTracker/hosttracker. Website uptime monitoring: run checks from 300+ locations, manage monitors, alerts and incidents. This page covers its hosted endpoint (https://mcp.host-tracker.com/mcp).

Is the HostTracker MCP server safe to use?

HostTracker scores 32 out of 100 on VerifyMCP. That is a record of what we were able to check automatically, not an endorsement. The category breakdown on this page shows every signal behind the number, including the ones we could not confirm.

What tools does the HostTracker MCP server expose?

HostTracker exposes 65 tools: get_monitor, delete_status_page, create_maintenance, create_contact_group, get_uptime_summary, and 60 more. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 7,341 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

Does the HostTracker MCP server require authentication?

Yes. HostTracker asked us for credentials when we connected, so you will need to authorise it in your MCP client before it can do anything.

Is the HostTracker MCP server still maintained?

HostTracker is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 6 October 2026. Those dates come from our own scans of the registry and the channel itself, not from anything the publisher announced.
