AppDynamics (Application Performance Monitor API) MCP Connector for Claude

F

Monitor application performance, business transactions, and infrastructure health rules directly from your AI agent.

13 tools Official Updated Jun 28, 2026 Official Vinkius Partner

Connect your AppDynamics Controller to any AI agent to gain deep visibility into your software ecosystem through natural language. This MCP server provides a comprehensive interface to the AppDynamics Application Performance Monitor API.

What you can do

  • Application Discovery — List all applications, tiers, and nodes monitored by your Controller to map out your infrastructure.
  • Performance Metrics — Retrieve real-time metric data (like Average Response Time or Errors per Minute) using specific metric paths.
  • Transaction Monitoring — List business transactions and access detailed snapshots to identify bottlenecks.
  • Health & Compliance — Export health rules and monitor violations to ensure your system stays within operational thresholds.
  • User Management — List and create users within the Controller to manage access and collaboration.

How it works

  1. Subscribe to this server
  2. Provide your AppDynamics Controller URL, Username, and Password
  3. Start querying your APM data from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client

Who is this for?

  • SREs & DevOps Engineers — quickly check system health and metric rollups without navigating the Controller UI.
  • Developers — inspect transaction snapshots and node performance directly from the IDE during debugging.
  • IT Operations — automate health rule reporting and user auditing via conversational commands.

List all applications monitored by our AppDynamics Controller.

I've retrieved the applications. You have 3 active applications: 'E-Commerce-Prod' (ID: 45), 'Payment-Gateway' (ID: 12), and 'Inventory-Service' (ID: 89).

Show me the average response time for application 45 for the last 15 minutes.

Fetching metric data... The Average Response Time for 'E-Commerce-Prod' over the last 15 minutes is 245ms, with a peak of 410ms during the last 5-minute window.

Are there any health rule violations for app 12?

Checking violations... I found one 'Warning' violation for 'Payment-Gateway': 'CPU Usage is high on Tier: Web-FrontEnd'. It started 10 minutes ago.

You can use the `get_metric_data` tool. Provide the `app_id` and the `metric_path` (e.g., 'Overall Application Performance|Average Response Time (ms)') to retrieve precise performance data.
