redhat-status-mcp

MCP server that exposes Red Hat's status page data to LLMs. Built with FastMCP and httpx.

This is definitely a work in progress.

Tools

Tool	Description
get_overall_status	Top-level severity indicator (operational, minor, major, critical)
list_service_groups	List all groups, or pass group_name to drill into one group's child services
get_incidents	Currently unresolved incidents with impact, status, and latest updates
get_maintenances	Active and upcoming scheduled maintenance windows

Prompts

Prompt	Description
triage_service_issue	Walk through status, incidents, and maintenances for a specific service
status_report	Full status report across all groups, incidents, and maintenances

Quickstart

Run with stdio (default, for MCP clients like Claude Desktop)

uv sync
uv run redhat-status-mcp

Run with HTTP transport (for llama-stack, lightspeed-stack, etc.)

uv run redhat-status-mcp --transport streamable-http --port 8000

Or use environment variables:

MCP_TRANSPORT=streamable-http MCP_PORT=8000 uv run redhat-status-mcp

SSE transport is also supported:

uv run redhat-status-mcp --transport sse --port 8000

Run from container

The container defaults to streamable-http on 0.0.0.0:8000:

podman run --rm -p 8000:8000 ghcr.io/rhel-lightspeed/redhat-status-mcp:latest

Override transport settings with environment variables:

podman run --rm -p 9090:9090 \
  -e MCP_TRANSPORT=sse \
  -e MCP_PORT=9090 \
  ghcr.io/rhel-lightspeed/redhat-status-mcp:latest

Integration

llama-stack

Register as a connector in your llama-stack config.yaml:

connectors:
  - connector_type: mcp
    connector_id: redhat-status
    url: http://localhost:8000/mcp

lightspeed-stack

Add to mcp_servers in your lightspeed-stack.yaml:

mcp_servers:
  - name: "redhat-status"
    url: "http://localhost:8000/mcp"
