ros2_medkit_status_set

MCP tool from Ros2 Medkit MCP by selfpatch

Trigger a lifecycle transition on an app or component via PUT /{entitytype}/{entityid}/status/{action}. Requires a gateway-side LifecycleProvider plugin for the entity. Warning: shutdown, force-shutdown, restart, and force-restart affect the running node or host process.

How to use it

Project documentation lists ros2_medkit_status_set for the Ros2 Medkit MCP 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.
