incident.io MCP server
Endpoint: https://mcp.incident.io/mcp · Authentication: Sign in with OAuth
Works with incident.io incidents, alerts, on-call schedules and escalations, follow-ups, status page drafts, and the service catalog. Supports OAuth or an incident.io API key as a bearer token.
How do I authenticate?
Add the endpoint in your client, start Connect or Sign in, approve the requested scopes, and return to the client. OAuth discovery finds the authorization server; client registration requirements vary by provider. Follow the provider guidance and client setup below.

Live-validated endpoint: https://mcp.incident.io/mcp · Streamable HTTP. Registration requirements not verified: The OAuth authorization and app-registration requirements for this exact endpoint have not been verified. A compatible client will request authorization, but follow the publisher documentation and do not guess client credentials or callbacks.
Agent prompt for Claude Code or Codex
Add the incident.io MCP server to my MCP client configuration and verify that it works. What it is: Works with incident.io incidents, alerts, on-call schedules and escalations, follow-ups, status page drafts, and the service catalog. Supports OAuth or an incident.io API key as a bearer token. Server URL: https://mcp.incident.io/mcp Transport: Streamable HTTP (remote MCP server, no local install). Authentication: OAuth 2.1. Registration requirements not verified: The OAuth authorization and app-registration requirements for this exact endpoint have not been verified. A compatible client will request authorization, but follow the publisher documentation and do not guess client credentials or callbacks. Tools: not yet observed by mcptest; tools/list will show them. Reference: https://mcptest.io/servers/incident-io/ Steps: 1. Work out which MCP client I use (Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, VS Code or another) and add the server under the name "incident-io" in that client's MCP configuration, user scope unless I ask otherwise. Claude Code: claude mcp add --transport http --scope user 'incident-io' 'https://mcp.incident.io/mcp' Other clients: use the setup for that client on the reference page. 2. Never write a credential value into a file that could be committed; reference an environment variable or the client's secret store, and ask me for any value you need. 3. Verify: connect to the server and call tools/list. Confirm the tools above are listed, and report any sign-in step I still have to complete.
Claude Code setup
Run in a terminal. This user-scoped entry is available across projects.
claude mcp add --transport http --scope user 'incident-io' 'https://mcp.incident.io/mcp'- After adding the server, open Claude Code, run /mcp, select the server, and follow the browser flow to authenticate.
Codex CLI setup
Run in a terminal; Codex stores the entry in ~/.codex/config.toml.
codex mcp add 'incident-io' --url 'https://mcp.incident.io/mcp'
codex mcp login 'incident-io'Cursor setup
Add to .cursor/mcp.json for this project, or ~/.cursor/mcp.json for all projects.

Notes for every client
- Publisher evidence (reviewed 2026-10-20): https://docs.incident.io/ai/remote-mcp
- Optional bearer token alternative: Store INCIDENT_IO_API_KEY in your operating system keychain, secret manager, or protected environment; never commit the value. The Authorization header syntax is Bearer <INCIDENT_IO_API_KEY>.
- Provider guidance: Available on Team, Pro, and Enterprise plans after an admin enables it under Settings > MCP.

Tool inventory
The catalog validator lists tools only on servers that answer without credentials. incident.io asks for OAuth 2.1 sign-in first, so its tools, resources and prompts were not observed. Connect in the Playground with your own credentials to list them.
