How do I use mcp-centreon?

1. Click on "Install Server". 2. Wait a few minutes for the server to deploy. Once ready, it will show a "Started" state. 3. In the chat, type @ followed by the MCP server name and your instructions, e.g., "@mcp-centreon Show me all hosts that are down" That's it! The server will respond to your query, and you can continue using it as needed. Here is a step-by-step guide with screenshots.

mcp-centreon

MCP server for Centreon IT monitoring — hosts, services, alerts, acknowledgements, and downtimes.

Integrates Claude (or any MCP-compatible AI) with Centreon to query monitoring status, manage acknowledgements and downtimes, and retrieve performance metrics.

Features

Hosts — list, search, and inspect monitored hosts; acknowledge problems; schedule downtimes
Services — list and filter services by state or host; acknowledge and schedule downtimes
Alerts — browse recent events, active acknowledgements, and scheduled/active downtimes
Performance — list available metrics per service and fetch time-series data
Platform status — cluster-level host/service state counts; poller topology

API version support

Targets Centreon REST API v2 (/centreon/api/latest/), supported in Centreon 21.04 and later (including 21.10, 22.x, 23.x, 24.x).

The authentication endpoint used is:

POST https://{host}/centreon/api/latest/authentication/providers/configurations/local

If you use an older Centreon installation that only exposes the legacy v1 API, the monitoring endpoints will not be available. Upgrade to Centreon 21.04+ to use this server.

Required Centreon user permissions

A read-only user is sufficient for all monitoring and read operations:

Permission	Reason
`View all objects` (or access to relevant host groups)	Needed for listing hosts and services
`Reach API configuration`	Required for host/service groups endpoints
`Reach API realtime`	Required for monitoring, events, metrics endpoints

To use acknowledgement and downtime tools the user also needs:

Permission	Reason
`Acknowledge resources`	`acknowledge_host`, `acknowledge_service`
`Schedule downtimes`	`add_downtime_host`, `add_downtime_service`

Create the API user in Administration > ACL > ACL Access Groups and assign the relevant ACL menus and actions.

Setup

1. Install

npm install -g mcp-centreon

Or run directly without installing:

npx mcp-centreon
