Outages.live Launches Agent Outage Checks
Polylane’s outages.live aggregates official status pages for cloud, AI, payments, and developer providers into a live feed that coding agents can query through MCP. It is free, requires no login or API key, and also supports RSS, Atom, JSON Feed, and Slack. [Official site](https://outages.live/) [Product Hunt](https://www.producthunt.com/products/polylane)
outages.live targets a real failure mode in agentic development: rewriting working code when an upstream provider is actually degraded.
- –MCP integration lets agents check provider health before debugging or modifying code
- –Multiple delivery formats make it useful for humans and automation, not just coding agents
- –No-auth access removes adoption friction for small teams and personal projects
- –Its main limitation is dependence on providers’ status pages, which can be delayed, incomplete, or overly optimistic
- –It complements telemetry and synthetic monitoring rather than replacing them
