pnpm install
pnpm run build

(npm also works: `npm install && npm run build`)

## Env config

- `HEALTHCHECKS_API_KEY` (required) — API key from Settings > API Access on healthchecks.io.
- `HEALTHCHECKS_API_URL` (optional) — defaults to `https://healthchecks.io/api/v3`. Change if self-hosting.
- `HEALTHCHECKS_PING_URL` (optional) — defaults to `https://hc-ping.com`. Change if self-hosting.

## Register with Claude Code

Install straight from GitHub, no clone needed (pnpm preferred):

```bash
claude mcp add healthchecksio -e HEALTHCHECKS_API_KEY=your-key -- pnpm dlx github:nguyenhuy158/healthchecksio-mcp

npm also works:

```bash
