Before you install
- Requires Python 3.12 exactly (~=3.12.0).
- Requires a PagerDuty User API Token and an MCP-enabled client (VS Code with MCP enabled, Cursor, or Claude Desktop).
- The uv package manager is recommended for running the server.

What it is and what it does
pagerduty-mcp is a local MCP server that bridges your PagerDuty account to AI assistants running in VS Code, Cursor, and Claude Desktop. It exposes PagerDuty operations—incident management, schedule overrides, escalation policies, service dependencies, and event orchestrations—as tools callable from your IDE's chat interface, letting you query and manage on-call operations without leaving your editor.
The package bundles embedded React applications for incident lifecycle management, on-call scheduling, compensation reporting, and service dependency visualization. It requires a PagerDuty User API Token for authentication and runs as a stdio-based MCP server managed by your IDE. Python 3.12 is required; installation is straightforward via pip, and configuration happens in your IDE's settings file.
Use it for
- Query and acknowledge PagerDuty incidents directly from VS Code Chat while coding, without switching to the web UI.
- Create and manage schedule overrides and escalation policies through Claude Desktop during incident response.
- View on-call compensation metrics and fairness scoring across responders for compliance and team planning.
- Visualize service dependency graphs to understand blast radius during incident investigation.
- Onboard new PagerDuty accounts step-by-step through the embedded wizard without manual API calls.

Before you install
Low install friction with a pure-Python wheel. Marked active with a recent release. Requires Python 3.12 specifically (not a range), which narrows compatibility; verify your environment matches before installing.
Requires Python 3.12 exactly (~=3.12.0). Requires a PagerDuty User API Token and an MCP-enabled client (VS Code with MCP enabled, Cursor, or Claude Desktop). The uv package manager is recommended for running the server.
