Hi MCP community 👋

Prismix runs a hosted MCP server that exposes real-time operational status for 75+ AI services — OpenAI, Anthropic, Cursor, Mistral, Perplexity, DeepSeek, xAI, and more.

Why it exists: when you're building MCP-powered apps, knowing whether the underlying AI providers are healthy is useful context. Instead of a separate browser tab, you can ask Claude directly.

Two tools:

• check_ai_status — query by service name (e.g. "anthropic", "openai"), get indicator (operational/degraded/outage) + active incident count + 30-day uptime
• list_ai_services — enumerate all 75+ tracked services with current indicators

Claude Desktop setup (30 seconds):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "prismix-status": {
      "url": "https://prismix.dev/api/v1/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Technical details: Streamable HTTP transport, protocol 2024-11-05. Status data refreshes every ~5 min from each provider's official status feed. Free, no auth, CORS-enabled. Source is public (MIT) — the same worker is deployable standalone: https://github.com/Prismor/prismix-status-mcp

Feedback we're curious about:

1. Is "is this AI provider up right now?" the right framing, or is there a more useful question to expose?
2. What other reliability data would be worth exposing via MCP — incident history, latency trends, historical uptime by day?
3. Any thoughts on the tool schema — should check_ai_status accept an array of service IDs?
