What is an MCP server?
MCP (Model Context Protocol) is a standard way for AI assistants to call external tools safely. Instead of hardcoding custom integrations for each assistant, you expose tools once through an MCP server.
Pulsiv's MCP server gives assistants direct access to your organization's alert workflows so they can create and manage on-chain monitoring tasks for you.
