Axiom MCP Server
Official Axiom MCP server enabling AI agents to query and analyze log data, events, and metrics in Axiom — executing APL (Axiom Processing Language) queries, searching log streams, analyzing time-series metrics, and integrating Axiom's serverless observability platform into agent-driven incident response, debugging, and performance analysis workflows.

⚡ Reliability
Best When
An agent needs to query Axiom log data for debugging, incident response, or observability analysis — the official MCP provides full APL query access to Axiom datasets.
Avoid When
You use Datadog, Grafana, CloudWatch, or other observability platforms — use their dedicated MCPs.
Use Cases
- • Querying application logs for error investigation from incident response agents
- • Analyzing performance metrics and latency distributions from SRE agents
- • Searching for specific events or patterns in log streams from debugging agents
- • Generating observability reports from log data from reporting agents
- • Correlating events across multiple log streams from root cause analysis agents
- • Building alert condition queries from monitoring automation agents
Not For
- • Teams not using Axiom (use Datadog, Grafana, or other observability MCPs)
- • Real-time streaming alerts (APL queries are for historical analysis)
- • Structured database queries on relational data (Axiom is for logs/events)
Interface
Authentication
Axiom API token required. Generate from Axiom settings. Dataset names needed for queries. Store token as environment variable.
Pricing
Axiom has a generous free tier. MCP server is free. Paid plans for higher data volumes and retention.
Agent Metadata
Known Gotchas
- ⚠ APL (Axiom Processing Language) has unique syntax — agents must learn APL, not SQL
- ⚠ Dataset names must be known in advance — no dynamic dataset discovery without additional API calls
- ⚠ Large time range queries may be slow or time out — scope time ranges carefully
- ⚠ Official Axiom MCP from axiomhq organization — well-maintained
- ⚠ Log data may contain PII — ensure APL queries respect data privacy requirements
- ⚠ Free tier retention is 30 days — older log data requires paid plan
