When an API fails or a service slows down, checking the provider's status is a useful first step before digging into your own code. We wanted to make that easy for coding agents, too.

This is the check I wish my agent did on its own before it starts 'fixing' things. I've watched agents rewrite working code over a provider outage more than once, so having the official status feed available over MCP — with no login or API key — feels like the right default. Curious how you handle the gap when a status page is slow to admit there's an incident, since that's usually when the agent needs it most.
checking provider status before letting an agent rewrite working code is a sensible first step
a timestamp on the source status matters here because a stale green light can be as misleading as a stale incident
congrats on the launch matanya. to your question, i would use this when the agent starts blaming our code and it is actually stripe or openai being down. the providers i miss most are email ones, sendgrid and resend outages look exactly like a broken signup )
I'd want the MCP tool to tell the agent when an incident clears too, otherwise it either sits idle or keeps polling the feed every few minutes.
giving the agent a way to check the provider before it rewrites half my code over a Stripe outage is the right instinct, that loop happens way too often
status pages are usually the last to admit anyhting is wrong tho. do you only mirror what the provider posts, or do you also catch slowdowns before the official page turns orange???

We'd love to hear which providers we're missing and how your agent uses it. We'll be here for questions!
