connect-betterstack
Connect the Better Stack MCP server and check that it works. Use when the user installs the Better Stack plugin or asks to set it up, when a Better Stack request comes in but no Better Stack tools (such as `incidents`, `monitors`, `query`, `documentation`) are available, or when a Better Stack tool fails with "unauthorized", 401 or "needs authentication". Tells the user exactly how to connect in the app they are using (ChatGPT, Codex, Cursor, Claude Code, Claude chat and Cowork, Claude Tag in Slack).
Install
With your agent
Install OMGSkills skill "betterstackhq/claude-plugin:skills/connect-betterstack" into this agent's normal skills directory: call the OMGSkills MCP get_install_plan tool for your agent and run the script it returns (it installs only the pinned commit and verifies SKILL.md), and stop if MCP or the pin is unavailable. Do not overwrite or change existing skills without asking me.
Manual command
git clone https://github.com/BetterStackHQ/claude-plugin /tmp/claude-plugin && ln -s /tmp/claude-plugin/skills/connect-betterstack ~/.claude/skills/connect-betterstackFrom README
Connect Better Stack The Better Stack plugin brings skills, and its tools come from the Better Stack MCP server at https://mcp.betterstack.com. The server lists no tools until the user signs in with their Better Stack account (OAuth in the browser, no token needed). Until then the skills can't read any data. Check whether Better Stack is connected Look at the tools you have right now. Connected: you have Better Stack tools, such as incidents, monitors, oncalls, sources, query or documentation. Their names may carry a prefix (mcppluginbetterstackbetterstackincidents, betterstack.incidents). Confirm with one cheap read-only call: incidents with status: ["ongoing"], or monitors. If it returns data (even an empty list), say Better Stack is connected and carry on with what the user asked. Not connected: no Better Stack tools at all, only an authenticate tool for Better Stack, or a call that fails with unauthorized, 401, 403 or "needs authentication".
