maxoperf — Claude Code MCP server for load testing
Control MaxoPerf load and browser tests through an AI agent, then inspect run metrics and diagnostics. Access requires a MaxoPerf API key.
claude mcp add --transport http maxoperf https://app.maxoperf.com/mcpWhat maxoperf does
The hosted server connects an AI agent to MaxoPerf. It can create tests, upload their files, start runs on managed cloud runners, and retrieve results. Available data includes throughput, latency percentiles, error rates, logs, and runner health.
The toolset covers projects, tests, runs, API discovery, and failure analysis. Text recipes guide tasks such as comparing p95 across runs or investigating a failed run. Nothing needs to run locally, but requests require MAXOPERF_API_KEY for platform authentication. In read-only mode, write tools are hidden.
What it helps with
- create a load test and launch a run
- compare p95 across two runs
- inspect errors and logs after a failed run
- check whether runners reached the target load
- review latency and throughput metrics
Example prompts for the agent
- Run a load test against my API and show me its results.
- Compare p95 for two runs and explain where latency increased.
- Investigate the failed run by checking its errors, logs, and achieved runner load.
