This is the third-party server itself — Odel doesn't run it. Hitting this URL directly talks straight to the upstream server with no auth or proxying. Connect through Odel to front it with managed auth.

AlertChecker MCP Server

Gives any MCP-compatible AI assistant (ChatGPT, Claude, and others) the ability to create AI-monitored web alerts on your behalf. Then you will be told when something happens instead of having to ask — just say "Alert me when..."

What it does

AlertChecker watches the web for you and emails you when a plain-English statement becomes true. Once you connect this MCP server, any supporting AI assistant can create these alerts directly from natural conversation.

Example prompts:

  • "Alert me when the iPhone 16 Pro is back in stock at apple.com"
  • "Let me know whenever it's going to rain in London tomorrow"
  • "Email me when Tesla stock drops below $200"
  • "Tell me if there's an earthquake over 4.0 magnitude in California"

Tools

ToolDescription
create_alertCreates an alert that monitors the web and emails you when a statement becomes true (or false). Accepts a statement, a short title, confidence level, and which outcome to notify on.
