DataDog MCP Server

CI Release Go Report Card codecov

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that provides AI assistants with direct access to DataDog's observability platform through a standardized interface.

🎯 Purpose

This server bridges the gap between Large Language Models (LLMs) and DataDog's comprehensive observability platform, enabling AI assistants to:

  • Monitor Infrastructure: Query dashboards, metrics, and host status
  • Manage Events: Create and retrieve events for incident tracking
  • Analyze Data: Access logs, traces, and performance metrics
  • Automate Operations: Interact with monitors, downtimes, and alerts

🔧 What is MCP?

The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is a standardized way for AI assistants to interact with external tools and data sources. Instead of each AI system building custom integrations, MCP provides a common interface that allows LLMs to:

  • Execute tools with structured inputs and outputs
  • Access real-time data from external systems
  • Maintain context across multiple tool calls
  • Provide consistent, reliable integrations

📊 DataDog Platform

DataDog is a leading observability platform that provides:

  • Infrastructure Monitoring: Track server performance, resource usage, and health
  • Application Performance Monitoring (APM): Monitor application performance and user experience
  • Log Management: Centralized logging with powerful search and analysis
  • Real User Monitoring (RUM): Track user interactions and frontend performance
  • Security Monitoring: Detect threats and vulnerabilities across your infrastructure

🚀 Quick Start

  1. Build the server:

    make build
    
  2. Configure DataDog API:

    export DD_API_KEY="your-datadog-api-key"
    export DATADOG_APP_KEY="your-datadog-app-key"  # Optional
    export DATADOG_SITE="datadoghq.eu"  # or datadoghq.com
    
  3. Generate MCP configuration:

    make create-mcp-config
    
  4. Run the server:

    ./build/datadog-mcp-server
