- Manage dashboards, folders, and visualization assets via MCP tools
- Configure alerts, notification channels, and data sources
- Administer users, teams, and access-control settings in Grafana
- Stdio MCP 1.0.3 with uvx (mcparmory-grafana) and Docker ghcr.io/mcparmory/grafana:1.0.3
- Observability control plane for agents—not a log shipping SDK
- Server version 1.0.3 on MCP schema 2025-12-11

What problem does it solve?
When production misbehaves, fixing Grafana dashboards and alerts means leaving the agent session that is already digging through your codebase.
Who is it for?
Solo operators running Grafana or Grafana Cloud who want MCP-driven dashboard and alert administration during incidents or iteration.
Skip if: Builders with no Grafana deployment, or teams that only need local unit tests without centralized observability.
What do I get? / Deliverables
Your agent can query and change Grafana resources in one thread while correlating deploys, alerts, and infra changes.
- Dashboard and alert configuration changes applied through agent-directed tool calls
- Documented Grafana resource state your agent can reference in postmortems or iterate tasks
Recommended MCP Servers
Journey fit
Grafana administration and alert context belong in Operate, where solo builders keep production visible after Ship and Launch. Monitoring is the canonical subphase for dashboards, alerting, and datasource health—not greenfield feature coding.
How it compares
Grafana admin API MCP server, not a generic log parser skill or hosting panel.
Common Questions / FAQ
Who is com.mcparmory/grafana for?
Developers who operate Grafana-backed monitoring and use Claude Code, Cursor, or similar MCP clients to adjust dashboards, alerts, and access during ops work.
When should I use com.mcparmory/grafana?
Use it in Operate monitoring workflows—after you ship—when you need to inspect or change Grafana assets while debugging errors, tuning alerts, or onboarding a datasource.
How do I add com.mcparmory/grafana to my agent?
Register stdio MCP with uvx mcparmory-grafana 1.0.3 or Docker ghcr.io/mcparmory/grafana:1.0.3, then supply your Grafana base URL and API key or admin credentials in the server environment.
