Operating an MCP server requires a specialized status page that goes beyond basic HTTP reachability to address unique agent-developer support needs. Unlike standard web services, MCP servers can appear operational via HTTP while failing critical functions like handshake initialization or tool schema changes. A purpose-built status page should provide granular details on handshake state, transport type (Streamable HTTP vs. HTTP+SSE), tool inventory drift, authentication errors, and latency, enabling developers to quickly diagnose issues specific to their agents.
