Installation

Releases​

Download the archive for your platform from the releases page. Archives are built for Linux, macOS, FreeBSD and Windows. Unpack it and put statuscake-mcp somewhere your AI assistant can run it.

Terminal
$ tar -xzf statuscake-mcp_<version>_linux_amd64.tar.gz
$ sudo mv statuscake-mcp /usr/local/bin/
$ statuscake-mcp --version

Every release includes a checksum file, statuscake-mcp_<version>_SHA256SUMS, together with a detached signature of it. Check the archive against the checksums before you unpack it.

Terminal
$ sha256sum --check --ignore-missing statuscake-mcp_<version>_SHA256SUMS

Docker​

A Docker image, statuscake/statuscake-mcp, is also published. It suits assistants that start servers as containers, and keeps the program off your PATH.

Terminal
$ docker pull statuscake/statuscake-mcp

See Setting Up a Client for how to start it.

Running it by hand​

The server is not meant to be run yourself. It speaks the MCP protocol over standard input and output, so it needs an assistant on the other end. If you run it from a terminal it prints a notice saying so and stops:

Terminal
$ statuscake-mcp
This binary is an MCP server. It is not meant to be executed directly.
...

For the same reason it has no shell completions. statuscake-mcp --version still works, and is the way to check it is installed.

Next Steps​

Connect it to your assistant. See Setting Up a Client.
