What the publisher says

From the prom-mcp repository's README, as published. We do not edit it. Read it on GitHub

prom-mcp — Prometheus MCP Server for AI Agents (Claude Code, Cursor)

prom-mcp is a Prometheus MCP server (Model Context Protocol) that gives AI agents production-grade eyes on your metrics. Connect Claude Code, Cursor, or any MCP client to Prometheus and let the agent run PromQL queries, explain firing alerts with their rule definitions, and discover which series actually exist before querying — so it investigates instead of guessing.

Built by a production engineer who works on-call, so the output reads like a triage note, not a raw JSON dump.

5 tools • 2 resources • 1 triage prompt • single Go binary • zero dependencies • stdio

Install

Claude Desktop (MCPB, no toolchain needed)

Download the bundle for your platform, then open it or drag it into Claude Desktop (Settings → Extensions). You will be asked for your Prometheus URL, which defaults to http://localhost:9090.

Claude Code

With the binary on your PATH (release download or go install, see below):

claude mcp add prom -- prom-mcp

Set PROMURL in your shell first if your Prometheus is not at http://localhost:9090, or pass --env PROMURL=... to the command. More variants in examples/claude-code.md.

Cursor

Add to ~/.cursor/mcp.json (same file as examples/cursor-mcp.json):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "prom": {
      "command": "prom-mcp",
      "env": {
        "PROM_URL": "http://localhost:9090"
      }
    }
  }
}

VS Code

Add to .vscode/mcp.json (same file as examples/vscode-mcp.json):

{
  "servers": {
    "prom": {
      "command": "prom-mcp",
      "env": {
        "PROM_URL": "http://localhost:9090"
      }
    }
  }
}

Go install / build from source

go install github.com/aniketatgithub/prom-mcp@latest
git clone https://github.com/aniketatgithub/prom-mcp && cd prom-mcp
go build -o prom-mcp ./cmd/prom-mcp

Plain binaries for all four platforms are also on the v0.2.0 release, next to the MCPB bundles above.
