Show HN: I made an MCP server that checks 172 cloud and SaaS status feeds

OutageDeck has launched an MCP server that checks status feeds from 172 cloud and SaaS providers, accessible at https://outagedeck.com/api/mcp. The server integrates with ChatGPT, Claude, VS Code, Gemini CLI, Windsurf, Zed, and the OpenAI Agents SDK, offering search and fetch tools with citable links. This provides developers and users a unified way to monitor service outages across major platforms.

and choose No authentication. The server also exposes the standard search

VS Code, Gemini CLI, Windsurf, Zed, and the OpenAI Agents SDK

All of them take a remote Streamable HTTP server by URL. Point them at https://outagedeck.com/api/mcp

in whatever the client calls its MCP server list. Clients whose connector layer only speaks Server-Sent Events are handled too: request Accept: text/event-stream

and the same JSON-RPC comes back as an event stream.
