"rootly": {
"url": "https://mcp.rootly.com/mcp",
"headers": {
"Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_ROOTLY_API_TOKEN"
}
}
}
}
SSE fallback:
{

Agent Setup
Claude CodeStreamable HTTP
claude mcp add --transport http rootly https://mcp.rootly.com/mcp \
--header "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_ROOTLY_API_TOKEN"
Code Mode:
claude mcp add rootly-codemode --transport http https://mcp.rootly.com/mcp-codemode \

}
}
}
Restart Claude Code after updating the config.

Rootly CLI
Standalone CLI for incidents, alerts, services, and on-call operations.
Install via Homebrew:
brew install rootlyhq/tap/rootly-cli
Or via Go:
go install github.com/rootlyhq/rootly-cli/cmd/rootly@latest
For more details, see the Rootly CLI repository.
Alternative Installation (Local)
Run the MCP server locally if you do not want to use the hosted service.
Prerequisites
- Python 3.12 or higher
uvpackage managercurl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh- Rootly API token
API Token Types
Choose the token type based on the access you need:
- Global API Key: Full access across the Rootly instance. Best for organization-wide visibility.
- Team API Key: Access limited to entities owned by that team.
- Personal API Key: Access matches the user who created it.
A Global API Key is recommended for tools like get_oncall_handoff_summary, get_oncall_shift_metrics, and org-wide incident search.

Self-Hosted Transport Options
Choose one transport per server process:
- Streamable HTTP endpoint path:
/mcp - SSE endpoint path:
/sse - Code Mode (experimental) endpoint path:
/mcp-codemodein hosted dual-transport mode
Example Docker run (Streamable HTTP):
docker run -p 8000:8000 \
-e ROOTLY_TRANSPORT=streamable-http \
-e ROOTLY_API_TOKEN=<YOUR_ROOTLY_API_TOKEN> \
rootly-mcp-server
Example Docker run (SSE):
docker run -p 8000:8000 \
-e ROOTLY_TRANSPORT=sse \
-e ROOTLY_API_TOKEN=<YOUR_ROOTLY_API_TOKEN> \
rootly-mcp-server
Example Docker run (Dual transport + Code Mode):
docker run -p 8000:8000 \
-e ROOTLY_TRANSPORT=both \
-e ROOTLY_API_TOKEN=<YOUR_ROOTLY_API_TOKEN> \

Features
- Dynamic Tool Generation: Automatically creates MCP resources from Rootly's OpenAPI (Swagger) specification
- Smart Pagination: Defaults to 10 items per request for incident endpoints to prevent context window overflow
- API Filtering: Limits exposed API endpoints for security and performance
- Intelligent Incident Analysis: Smart tools that analyze historical incident data
find_related_incidents: Uses TF-IDF similarity analysis to find historically similar incidentssuggest_solutions: Mines past incident resolutions to recommend actionable solutions
- MCP Resources: Exposes incident and team data as structured resources for easy AI reference
- Intelligent Pattern Recognition: Automatically identifies services, error types, and resolution patterns
- On-Call Health Integration: Detects workload health risk in scheduled responders
Supported Tools
The default server configuration exposes 101 tools.

On-Call Health Integration
Integrates with On-Call Health to detect workload health risk in scheduled responders.
Setup
Set the ONCALLHEALTH_API_KEY environment variable:
{
"mcpServers": {
"rootly": {
"command": "uvx",
"args": ["rootly-mcp-server"],
"env": {
"ROOTLY_API_TOKEN": "your_rootly_token",
"ONCALLHEALTH_API_KEY": "och_live_your_key"
}
}
}
}
Usage
check_oncall_health_risk(
start_date="2026-02-09",
end_date="2026-02-15"
)
Returns at-risk users who are scheduled, recommended safe replacements, and action summaries.
Example Skills
Pre-built Claude Code skills:
🚨 Rootly Incident Responder
This skill:
- Analyzes production incidents with full context
- Finds similar historical incidents using ML-based similarity matching
- Suggests solutions based on past successful resolutions
- Coordinates with on-call teams across timezones
- Correlates incidents with recent code changes and deployments
- Creates action items and remediation plans
- Provides confidence scores and time estimates
Quick Start:
# Copy the skill to your project
mkdir -p .claude/skills
cp examples/skills/rootly-incident-responder.md .claude/skills/
# Then in Claude Code, invoke it:
# @rootly-incident-responder analyze incident #12345
It demonstrates a full incident response workflow using Rootly tools and GitHub context.
On-Call Shift Metrics
Get on-call shift metrics for any time period, grouped by user, team, or schedule. Includes primary/secondary role tracking, shift counts, hours, and days on-call.
get_oncall_shift_metrics(
start_date="2025-10-01",
end_date="2025-10-31",
group_by="user"
)
On-Call Handoff Summary
Complete handoff: current/next on-call + incidents during shifts.
# All on-call (any timezone)
get_oncall_handoff_summary(
team_ids="team-1,team-2",
timezone="America/Los_Angeles"
)
# Regional filter - only show APAC on-call during APAC business hours
get_oncall_handoff_summary(
timezone="Asia/Tokyo",
filter_by_region=True
)
Regional filtering shows only people on-call during business hours (9am-5pm) in the specified timezone.
Returns: schedules with current_oncall, next_oncall, and shift_incidents
Shift Incidents
Incidents during a time period, with filtering by severity/status/tags.
get_shift_incidents(
start_time="2025-10-20T09:00:00Z",
end_time="2025-10-20T17:00:00Z",
severity="critical", # optional
status="resolved", # optional
tags="database,api" # optional
)
Returns: incidents list + summary (counts, avg resolution time, grouping)
