Pingdom for AI agents

Pingdom monitors uptime and performance for websites, servers, and applications, alerting teams when something goes down. Ops teams use it to catch outages before customers report them. Connect it once through Arc0, and your agent, or Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor, can use it through one MCP endpoint, limited to what each user approved.

What agents do in Pingdom.

01

Check a site's uptime status

Look up a single check's current status read-only to confirm a site is responding.

02

Review recent maintenance windows

List maintenance windows to see if a reported outage overlaps planned downtime.

03

Check contact alert settings

Look up contact details read-only before confirming who gets paged for a new check.

02 · ACTIONS

13 Pingdom actions, graded by risk.

Every Pingdom action is tagged read, write or destructive, so one policy covers the whole app and new actions inherit the right default.

03 · HOW IT WORKS

Pingdom in three steps.

  1. 01Your users connect PingdomThey add their Pingdom api key on Arc0 Connect, under your brand. It goes straight into the vault.
  2. 02You set the rulesReads run, and writes like “updates” can wait for the user to approve.
  3. 03Any agent can actYour agent calls Pingdom through the Arc0 SDK or MCP, and so can Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor. Every call lands on the audit log.
POLICY.TS
await arc0.policies.set('pingdom', {
  read: 'allow',
  write: 'ask',        
  destructive: 'deny',  
})

04 · AUTH AND DATA

How Pingdom connects.

Users add their Pingdom api key on Arc0 Connect. It is encrypted in the vault, never shown to the model, and each user can rotate or revoke it at any time.

The same Pingdom connection serves your agent over MCP and your own backend over REST and the proxy, so a user connects once. How Arc0 handles credentials →

07 · FAQ

Pingdom and Arc0, answered.

Q01

Can I use Pingdom with Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor?

Yes. Connect Pingdom to Arc0 once, then add your Arc0 MCP URL to Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Claude Code or any other remote-MCP client. Each assistant only gets the Pingdom actions you allow.

Q02

How do users connect Pingdom?

Users add their Pingdom api key on Arc0 Connect. It is encrypted in the vault, never shown to the model, and each user can rotate or revoke it at any time.

Q03

Which Pingdom actions can my agent take?

13 in total: 13 read, 0 write and 0 destructive. Your policies decide which of them each agent may call.

Q04

Can I make my agent read-only in Pingdom?

Yes. Allow read actions and deny writes in the Pingdom policy. Your agent can still look things up, and any write it attempts is blocked and logged.

Q05

Can my own backend call Pingdom too?

Yes. The same Pingdom connection is available over REST and through the Arc0 proxy, so your product and your agent share one connection per user.
