## Description

Heuristic fallback — verify the package name and runner against the repository README before running it. Uses `npx` (confidence: low):

```json

  "alertchecker-mcp": {
    "command": "npx",
    "args": ["-y","alertchecker-mcp"]
  }
}
```

## Documentation & README

# AlertChecker MCP Server

Gives any MCP-compatible AI assistant (ChatGPT, Claude, and others) the ability to create AI-monitored web alerts on your behalf. Then you will be told when something happens instead of having to ask — just say **"Alert me when..."**

## What it does

AlertChecker watches the web for you and emails you when a plain-English statement becomes true. Once you connect this MCP server, any supporting AI assistant can create these alerts directly from natural conversation.

**Example prompts:**
- "Alert me when the iPhone 16 Pro is back in stock at apple.com"
- "Let me know whenever it's going to rain in London tomorrow"
- "Email me when Tesla stock drops below $200"
- "Tell me if there's an earthquake over 4.0 magnitude in California"

## Tools

| Tool | Description |
|---|---|
| `create_alert` | Creates an alert that monitors the web and emails you when a statement becomes true (or false). Accepts a statement, a short title, confidence level, and which outcome to notify on. |

## Icon

A public icon suitable for connector setup is available at [alertchecker.com/app-icon.png](https://alertchecker.com/app-icon.png) — PNG, 256x269px, under 9KB.

## Connecting

**Server URL:** `https://alertchecker.com/api/mcp`

**Transport:** Streamable HTTP

**Authentication:** OAuth 2.0 with PKCE and Dynamic Client Registration (RFC 7591). No manual API key or client credentials needed — your MCP client discovers everything automatically from:

On first connection, you'll be redirected to sign in via Google or a magic email link.
