oracle.oci-notifications-mcp-server
An MCP server that exposes Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) Notifications service APIs, enabling AI agents to create and manage pub/sub topics, configure subscriptions (email, HTTPS, Slack, PagerDuty, SMS, OCI Functions), and publish messages to notification channels for event-driven workflows.
Score Breakdown
⚙ Agent Friendliness
🔒 Security
Notification payloads may contain sensitive operational data. HTTPS subscription endpoints should use TLS. Agents should not publish to topics without understanding downstream consumers. IAM policies should restrict publish permissions to trusted principals only.
⚡ Reliability
Best When
You need to automate OCI alert notification routing — connecting OCI Monitoring alarms, Events service triggers, or custom agent-published messages to email, Slack, PagerDuty, or HTTPS endpoints.
Avoid When
You need guaranteed message ordering, large message payloads, or fan-out to millions of subscribers — use OCI Streaming or a dedicated message broker instead.
Use Cases
- • Automating creation of notification topics for new application alert channels
- • Programmatically managing subscriptions for incident response routing
- • Publishing custom messages to notification topics from AI agent workflows
- • Integrating OCI Notifications into event-driven automation pipelines
- • Managing alarm notification channels for OCI Monitoring integration
Not For
- • Message queuing with guaranteed delivery ordering (use OCI Queue)
- • Streaming large volumes of events (use OCI Streaming/Kafka)
- • Non-OCI notification services (PagerDuty native, AWS SNS)
- • Real-time WebSocket push notifications to browser clients
Interface
Authentication
Requires IAM policies for ons-family resources. Publishing messages and managing topics require separate permission sets. Subscription endpoints may require confirmation workflows.
Pricing
Notifications pricing is straightforward; most operational alerting workloads stay within free tier
Agent Metadata
Known Gotchas
- ⚠ Email subscriptions require manual confirmation by recipient before messages are delivered
- ⚠ Message size limit is 64 KB — large payloads must be stored externally with a reference
- ⚠ Compartment OCID required for all management operations
- ⚠ HTTPS subscriptions require endpoint to respond with 200 OK to subscription confirmation
- ⚠ Slack and PagerDuty subscriptions require additional integration setup outside OCI console
