Connect AI coding agents (Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, OpenAI Codex) to Grafana Cloud via the `mcp-grafana` Model Context Protocol server. Installs the server with `go install`, generates a Grafana service-account token, wires `~/.claude/settings.json` or `~/.cursor/mcp.json` with the `command` + `env` block, runs `--disable-write` for safer read-only sessions, switches to SSE transport for team-shared / VS Code setups, and verifies with `/mcp` + a `list_datasources` round-trip. Use when connecting Claude Code to Grafana, setting up MCP for Grafana, configuring the Grafana MCP server, using Grafana tools in Cursor/VS Code, querying Grafana from an AI agent, sharing the MCP server across a team — even when the user says "give my agent Grafana access", "let Claude see my metrics", or "Cursor + Grafana" without saying "MCP".

# Grafana Cloud MCP Server Setup
The Grafana MCP server exposes Grafana Cloud capabilities as tools that AI agents can call via the Model Context Protocol. Agents can then query metrics, search dashboards, manage alerts, investigate incidents, and interact with Fleet Management without leaving the coding environment.
Transports: `stdio` (agent spawns the server as a subprocess, simplest), or `SSE` (server runs independently, agents connect via HTTP — see [references/sse-transport.md](references/sse-transport.md)).
## Common Workflows
### Connecting Claude Code to Grafana (stdio)
```bash
# 1. Install the server
go install github.com/grafana/mcp-grafana/cmd/mcp-grafana@latest
