Larm has a built-in MCP server that lets AI tools manage your monitors, check uptime, create incidents, and set up alerts — all through natural language. Available on all plans, including Free.

Claude Code

Run this command in your terminal: 
claude mcp add larm --transport http https://app.larm.dev/mcp
Or add it to your project’s .mcp.json: 
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "larm": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://app.larm.dev/mcp"
    }
  }
}

​
Claude Desktop

Open Settings > Developer > Edit Config and add: 
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "larm": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://app.larm.dev/mcp"
    }
  }
}

​
Cursor

Open Settings > MCP Servers and add a new server:
  • Name: larm
  • Type: http
  • URL: https://app.larm.dev/mcp
Or add to your project’s .cursor/mcp.json: 
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "larm": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://app.larm.dev/mcp"
    }
  }
}

​
VS Code

Add to your project’s .vscode/mcp.json: 
{
  "servers": {
    "larm": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://app.larm.dev/mcp"
    }
  }
}
VS Code uses servers as the root key, not mcpServers. MCP tools work in Copilot’s Agent mode.

​
Authentication

The first time you use a Larm tool, your MCP client will open a browser window:
  1. Log in with your Larm account (email, GitHub, or Google)
  2. Approve the authorization request — “Full access to your Larm account”
  3. Return to your editor — the connection is ready
Tokens refresh automatically. You won’t need to authorize again unless you revoke access.
