About OpenStatus
OpenStatus combines uptime monitoring with a public or password-protected status page. Monitors can be declared in a repository through a Terraform provider or the CLI, and the same actions are available through a typed HTTP API with an OpenAPI spec. An MCP server lets AI agents open and resolve status reports, and every change is recorded in an audit log.
Status pages support themes, custom domains and a timestamped incident history. You can use the hosted service or self-host it, either as the full stack or as the status page on its own.
Strengths
- Monitors can be managed as code with Terraform or the CLI
- Hosted or self-hosted, including a status-page-only setup
- Custom domains and password-protected status pages
- API, CLI, MCP server and Terraform share one API key
Limitations
- Self-hosting the full stack takes more setup than the hosted service
- Agent and MCP features assume an AI tooling workflow some teams will not use
