Owl24 MCP Overview

The owl24-mcp MCP server connects MCP-speaking coding agents to owl24's production error and agent-access queue workflow. It lets agents list and queue errors, claim work, inspect traces, read cached RCA reports, and release, resolve, or extend claims. It runs locally through npx over stdio and uses an owl24 project API key. Reach for it when an agent should investigate production failures interactively inside Claude Code, Cursor, or another MCP client.
