rollbar-mcp-server

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for Rollbar.

Note

This software is alpha quality and under active development.

Features

This MCP server implementes the stdio server type, which means your AI tool (e.g. Claude) will run it directly; you don't run a separate process or connect over http.

Configuration

ROLLBAR_ACCESS_TOKEN: an access token for your Rollbar project with read and/or write scope.

Tools

get-item-details(counter, max_tokens?): Given an item number, fetch the item details and last occurrence details. Supports an optional max_tokens parameter (default: 20000) to automatically truncate large occurrence responses. Example prompt: Diagnose the root cause of Rollbar item #123456

get-deployments(limit): List deploy data for the given project. Example prompt: List the last 5 deployments or Are there any failed deployments?

get-version(version, environment): Fetch version details for the given version string, environment name, and the configured project.

get-top-items(environment): Fetch the top items in the last 24 hours given the environment name, and the configured project.

list-items(environment): List items filtered by status, environment and a search query.

update-item(itemId, status?, level?, title?, assignedUserId?, resolvedInVersion?, snoozed?, teamId?): Update an item's properties including status, level, title, assignment, and more. Example prompt: Mark Rollbar item #123456 as resolved or Assign item #123456 to user ID 789. (Requires write scope)
