Waitbus MCP Server
One wait verb that blocks on, and queries across, every local source at once. When any agent, CI job, test, or container on your machine finishes or fails, every other tool on the box hears it: your Claude Code, your Cursor, your scripts, your CI. Clients that support server notifications get a push; the rest get one blocking waitbus wait. No waitbus cloud, no account, no telemetry; all processing stays on your…
People connecting DevOps & monitoring tools to Claude, Cursor, VS Code, or another MCP client. The project is written in Python.

Is Waitbus still maintained?
Yes - as of 2026-08-25, its last commit was 2026-08-24 and it shipped 7 releases in the last 90 days. We re-verify nightly.
How do I install Waitbus?
