How to choose

• Pick the server for the observability stack you already pay for (Grafana, New Relic, Axiom, Sentry, OneUptime, UptimeRobot).
• Start read-only: querying logs and metrics is low-risk, while creating monitors or changing incidents should stay behind approval.
• Large log queries can return a lot of text, so watch the model's context and token costs.
• Only connect servers you trust: an MCP server can read and act on whatever its credentials allow.
