ioda
ioda_find_outages
Find IODA outage events overlapping an explicit Unix-second window of at most 31 days. Omit entity filters for global scope, which searches one day outside the window by default instead of 14; global searches over multi-day windows can time out, so narrow the window or add entityType. A code requires its entityType. relatedToType and relatedToCode limit results to entityType entities within one country, region, ASN, or geoasn. Source scores are not an absolute severity scale. Starts at until are included; adjacent windows can duplicate boundary detections. Starts may precede from; ends can be clipped at until and do not establish recovery. ignoreMethods excludes source.method, source.*, or *.method upstream before scoring. includeAlerts adds nested transitions and can increase size. Pages are zero-based; keep filters and limit fixed.
ioda_get_alerts
Retrieve IODA detection and recovery transitions in an explicit Unix-second window of at most 31 days. Omit entity filters for global scope; a code requires entityType. relatedToType and relatedToCode limit results to entityType entities within one country, region, ASN, or geoasn, served at page 0 only. Each transition retains its source, level, condition, value and baseline; levels and baselines are not a source-independent severity scale. A recovery's historyValue can be a baseline IODA re-based during a long event; compare its value with the detection's historyValue and condition. Transitions include both requested bounds, widened by extendWindowSeconds; adjacent windows can duplicate boundary detections. ignoreMethods excludes source.method, source.*, or *.method upstream. Missing transitions do not establish health. Pages are zero-based; keep filters and limit fixed.
ioda_get_signals
Fetch numeric BGP visibility, active IPv4 /24 probing, Merit telescope, or Google Transparency Report traffic series for one entity in an explicit Unix-second window of at most 31 days. source is required: bgp, ping-slash24, merit-nt, or gtr (countries only). Nulls are not zero connectivity: trailing nulls in buckets not yet ended or ended within the publication allowance before the call (1800 seconds for bgp and ping-slash24, 10800 for merit-nt and gtr) are usually unpublished, and every other null is a missing observation; the notice counts each trailing class. maxPoints requests upstream aggregation, not first-N samples; smaller values lose temporal resolution. Returned series retain aligned boundary buckets with exclusive returned until bounds that may extend beyond requested bounds; timestamps and intervals support cross-source comparisons.
ioda_get_status
Inspect recent IODA detection evidence and measurement coverage for one entity over a lookback of 1–24 hours. Collect events, alerts, bgp, ping-slash24 and merit-nt evidence. Partial failures remain explicit and route to standalone tools. recent, stale, no_data and unknown describe observation availability; buckets within the 1800-second publication allowance count as pending, not missing. No alerts is not an all-clear. IODA measures macroscopic connectivity, not one office or a shutdown cause.
ioda_search_entities
Resolve country, region, autonomous-system, or geoasn (one ASN within a region or country) names and codes for outage investigations. Choose entityType and either query or entityCode; omit both to list the type. Countries use two letters, regions numeric IODA codes, ASNs decimal digits (AS prefix accepted), geoasns an ASN and a region or country code (40934-576, 59962-IR). Add relatedToType and relatedToCode to list entityType entities within one country, region, ASN, or geoasn, such as the regions or networks of a country; a scope combines with query. Region results can include IODA geolocation catch-alls named [Invalid Region (N)] or Unknown Region in <country>, which are not provinces or states; a notice names them. Metadata does not establish measurement coverage. Pages are zero-based; keep limit fixed when continuing.
ioda_summarize_outages
Rank the entities of one entityType by IODA's outage summary score over an explicit Unix-second window of at most 31 days, such as the countries or a country's regions hit hardest this week. Rows keep IODA's order, descending scores.overall. Region rankings can include IODA geolocation catch-alls named [Invalid Region (N)] or Unknown Region in <country>, which are not provinces or states; a notice names them. IODA merges overlapping events from different sources, scores each merged event as the product of its sources' scores, and sums the merged events into overall; each <source>.<method> key sums that source's event scores. Scores are window totals for ranking the rows of one request, not current status, and are not comparable across requests with different windows. Add entityCode for one entity, or relatedToType and relatedToCode to rank entityType entities within one country, region, ASN, or geoasn; large type-only rankings can time out. Event-start selection includes until, so adjacent windows can duplicate boundary detections. ignoreMethods excludes source.method, source.*, or *.method upstream before scoring; keep exclusions fixed when comparing rankings or drilling into events and alerts. An empty result is not an all-clear. Pages are zero-based; keep filters and limit fixed.

Ioda Outages MCP Server — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Ioda Outages MCP Server do?
It exposes 6 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: ioda_find_outages, ioda_get_alerts, ioda_get_signals, ioda_get_status, ioda_search_entities, ioda_summarize_outages. The full list with descriptions is on this page — we take it from the server itself via tools/list, not from a README. How MCP servers expose tools in the first place →
Is Ioda Outages MCP Server working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 92 of 92 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 546 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
How do I connect Ioda Outages MCP Server?
Copy the ready config from this page. We generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each in the form that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.
Does Ioda Outages MCP Server need an API key?
No. Ioda Outages MCP Server completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 6 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is Ioda Outages MCP Server?
It answers our handshake in 546 ms on average, which is faster than 22% of all working MCP servers we measure. That is on the slow side — worth knowing if the tool sits inside an interactive loop. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
How many people use Ioda Outages MCP Server?
The npm package @cyanheads/ioda-outages-mcp-server was installed 560 times in the last week. Week over week that is +866%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is Ioda Outages MCP Server open source?
The code is open source: it is published under the Apache-2.0 licence, written in TypeScript, 1 stars on GitHub and 1 open issue. The licence covers the code in the repository, not the hosted service at ioda-outages.caseyjhand.com, which runs on its operator's own terms.
