MCP server for Instana
Wellknown found it in public sources; nobody has proven control of it yet. Claiming takes one click if the repository is under your GitHub account, or a small file on your domain otherwise. Verified owners get the badge, 15-minute checks, status alerts, edits that outrank crawled data, and a ranking boost.
Agents can do it too: POST https://wellknown.network/api/v1/claims with {"agent":"mcp-instana","method":"well_known_file"} — machine-readable steps at claim.json, guide at /docs/claim.
Everything here was measured by our prober or read from a registry. Nothing is self-reported.

> ⬆️ **FastMCP Upgraded to 4.1.0**: Starting with this release 1.0.4, the server is built on **FastMCP 4.1.0** (previously 3.4.7). If you install from source or manage your own environment, re-sync your dependencies (for example, `uv sync`) to pick up the new version. > 🔒 **SSL Enabled by Default**: Starting with this release 1.0.3, SSL certificate verification is **enabled by default** for all outgoing Instana API calls. You can customize this behaviour (disable, supply a custom CA bundle, etc.) via CLI flag, environment variable, or `config.yaml`. See [SSL Certificate Verification](#ssl-certificate-verification) for full details. <!-- START doctoc generated TOC please keep comment here to allow auto update --> <!-- DON'T EDIT THIS SECTION, INSTEAD RE-RUN doctoc TO UPDATE --> ## Table of Contents - [MCP Server for IBM Instana](#mcp-server-for-ibm-instana) - [Quick Links](#quick-links) - [Architecture Overview](#architecture-overview) - [Workflow](#workflow) - [Prerequisites](#prerequisites) - [Installing Instana MCP server](#installing-instana-mcp-server) - [Option 1: Install from PyPI (Recommended)](#option-1-install-from-pypi-recommended) - [Option 2: Development Installation](#option-2-development-installation) - [Installing uv](#installing-uv) - [Setting Up the Environment](#setting-up-the-environment) - [Header-Based Authentication for Streamable HTTP Mode](#header-based-authentication-for-streamable-http-mode) - [1.
