Dynatrace-official MCP — Claude writes DQL, investigates incidents, tracks K8s events, surfaces security findings.
Dynatrace publishes this MCP under their dynatrace-oss org. It exposes the Grail platform: DQL query helper, problems/incidents stream, K8s events, security findings. Comes with a Grail budget tracker so agents don't blow your quota.
