2. Sign in
Run codex mcp login <name> to complete OAuth for a remote server. Netdata is hosted by Netdata, so there is nothing to install or keep updated.
3. Try it
Ask Codex for something Netdata can do. Query real-time infrastructure metrics, alerts, logs and anomaly detection across all your Netdata Cloud nodes. Approve the first tool call and check the result before allowing write actions automatically.
- · Each server is a [mcp_servers.<name>] table in config.toml.
- · Use enabled_tools or disabled_tools to keep the tool list short.
