Let AI install it

Copy this message into a Claude chat. The AI checks your computer, tells you which file it will change, and waits for your OK every time.

Please install the MCP server DevHelm MCP Server for Claude on this computer, in this order: 1) Check uv with uv --version. If it is missing, tell me to install it from https://docs.astral.sh/uv/getting-started/installation/; do not install it yourself. 2) Use only this config (already checked by PopNx MCP): { "mcpServers": { "devhelmhq": { "command": "uvx", "args": [ "devhelm-mcp-server" ], "env": { "DEVHELM_API_TOKEN": "your-value" } } } } 3) Tell me the full path of the file you will change, or the command you will run, and wait for my OK. 4) For DEVHELM_API_TOKEN, leave "your-value" in place and tell me to paste the real value myself into the file or the app’s field. Never ask me to type a key in chat. 5) Do what we agreed, then check that the DevHelm MCP Server tools really show up.

This message has no key in it. If a key is needed, the AI will ask you to paste it yourself into the file or the app’s field.

Common questions

Is DevHelm MCP Server safe?

It passed 3 of 3 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

You need to fill in: DEVHELM_API_TOKEN

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs on your computer. Your AI app starts it when needed, and data does not pass through the maker’s servers (unless it calls an online service itself).

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed 2 days ago, and the latest version (1.0.2) reached the registry 6 months ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. You also need Python (uv) on your computer.

What can I use instead?

DevHelm MCP Server

Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for DevHelm — gives AI coding assistants (Cursor, Claude Desktop, Windsurf, etc.) access to your uptime monitors, incidents, alerting, and more.

Quick Start

Hosted (recommended)

Use the hosted server at mcp.devhelm.io. Two connection modes:

Bearer auth:

URL: https://mcp.devhelm.io/mcp

Authorization: Bearer

API key in URL (for clients that only accept a URL):

URL: https://mcp.devhelm.io/<your-api-token>/mcp

Local (stdio)

pip install devhelm-mcp-server

export DEVHELM_API_TOKEN=your-token devhelm-mcp-server

Or with uvx (no install required):

export DEVHELM_API_TOKEN=your-token

uvx devhelm-mcp-server

Cursor / Claude Desktop

Add to your MCP config:

"mcpServers": { "devhelm": { "url": "https://mcp.devhelm.io/ /mcp" } } }

Errors come back as isError with every ErrorResponse field and a sentence for the agent.
