## Why AI + monitoring?

Monitoring involves repetitive, structured tasks that benefit from automation:

* **Creating monitors** — describe what you want to monitor in natural language
* **Investigating incidents** — AI agents can correlate data faster than manual review
* **Maintaining configs** — keep monitoring in sync with infrastructure changes
* **Generating reports** — summarize uptime, incidents, and trends

AI agents can perform these tasks through tool APIs, and the Model Context Protocol (MCP) standardizes how they do it.

## Use DevHelm with AI agents
