app_status

MCP tool from GhostDesk by YV17labs

Check if an application is running and read its logs

How to use it

Project documentation lists app_status for the GhostDesk MCP server. Add the server to your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf and others), then check which tools your installed version makes available. Tool availability can depend on configuration and credentials. A server handshake does not verify this tool’s behavior. See the full listing for setup details.
