MCP index access to the AgentOps Public API.
MCP index access to the AgentOps Public API. Exposed over MCP by the agentops mcp mcp server, that capability becomes something an assistant can invoke while it works, not something you go and do afterwards.
The AgentOps MCP server provides access to observability and tracing data for debugging complex AI agent runs. This adds crucial context about where the AI agent succeeds or fails.
Everything the assistant can do here goes through one of these:
auth — Authorize using an AgentOps project API key and return JWT tokenget_trace — The get_trace tool exposed by this serverget_span — The get_span tool exposed by this serverget_complete_trace — Get comprehensive trace information including all spans and their metricsYou will need one environment variable: AGENTOPS_API_KEY. The server will not start without them, which is usually why the tools fail to appear on a first run. Keep credentials in your client's env block or a secrets manager rather than in a file you might commit.
Installation goes through your MCP client rather than a global install: point it at @smithery/cli on npm and it is fetched when the client starts. The copy-paste blocks for Claude Desktop, Claude Code and Cursor are further down this page.
Among the developer tooling options, the useful question is rarely "what can it do" but "what does it cost you to run" — permissions, credentials, and how much of your context its toolset consumes. Agentops MCP's toolset — auth, get_trace, get_span and 1 more — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by AgentOps-AI; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.
