Connect via MCP

Remote Streamable HTTP at api.downrightnow.in/mcp. Pick your AI platform for copy-paste setup.

Plans & MCP access

One API key for REST and MCP. Free: status + subscription check. Pro: trending + webhooks. Ultra: bulk status.

MCP tool	Min plan
get_api_subscription_status	Free
check_service_status	Free
list_trending_outages	Pro
bulk_check_service_status	Ultra
subscribe_outage_webhook	Pro
list_outage_webhooks	Pro
delete_outage_webhook	Pro

Upgrade on the pricing section — same drn_live_ key works for REST and MCP. Call get_api_subscription_status from your agent to verify plan after checkout.

Cursor setup

Project: .cursor/mcp.json — or global ~/.cursor/mcp.json

Remote MCP URL: https://api.downrightnow.in/mcp · Env var: DOWNRIGHTNOW_API_KEY

Export your API key: export DOWNRIGHTNOW_API_KEY=drn_live_…
Paste the JSON below into .cursor/mcp.json (create the file if needed).
Restart Cursor or reload MCP from Settings → Tools & MCP.
In Agent mode, ask: “Is incometax.gov.in down right now?”

Configuration

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "downrightnow": {
      "url": "https://api.downrightnow.in/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer ${env:DOWNRIGHTNOW_API_KEY}"
      }
    }
  }
}

Test prompt: Use downrightnow to check if sbi.co.in is down.

Pro and Ultra gates match REST v1. Tool calls count toward the same daily limits as HTTP (except get_api_subscription_status).
