### Start MCP Server Programmatically with Stdio Transport (TypeScript)

Source: https://context7.com/domdomegg/downdetector-mcp/llms.txt

Initiates the MCP server using stdio transport, enabling integration with MCP clients. This function connects to the transport, logs a success message, or exits with an error if the server fails to start. Dependencies include '@modelcontextprotocol/sdk/server/stdio' and 'downdetector-mcp/server'.

```typescript
import { StdioServerTransport } from '@modelcontextprotocol/sdk/server/stdio.js';
import { server } from 'downdetector-mcp/server';

async function main(): Promise<void> {
  try {
    const transport = new StdioServerTransport();
    await server.connect(transport);
    console.error('MCP server running on stdio');
  } catch (error) {
    console.error('Failed to start server:', error);
    process.exit(1);
  }
}

main();
```

### Query Service Status with Regional Domains (TypeScript)

Source: https://context7.com/domdomegg/downdetector-mcp/llms.txt

Demonstrates how to query service status for different geographic regions by specifying the 'domain' parameter. It includes a list of supported domains and provides examples of checking service status in the US, UK, and Germany. Assumes the existence of a 'handler' function.

```typescript
// Available domains for regional queries
const supportedDomains = [
  'com',    // United States (default)
  'co.uk',  // United Kingdom
  'uk',     // United Kingdom (alternative)
  'it',     // Italy
  'fr',     // France
  'de',     // Germany
  'es',     // Spain
  'nl',     // Netherlands
  'br',     // Brazil
  'mx',     // Mexico
  'ar',     // Argentina
  'in',     // India
  'au',     // Australia
  'jp',     // Japan
];

// Example: Check Instagram status in different regions
const usStatus = await handler({ serviceName: 'instagram' });
const ukStatus = await handler({ serviceName: 'instagram', domain: 'co.uk' });
const deStatus = await handler({ serviceName: 'instagram', domain: 'de' });
```

### Programmatic Usage in TypeScript

Source: https://context7.com/domdomegg/downdetector-mcp/llms.txt

Demonstrates how to import and use the downdetector handler directly within a TypeScript application, including input validation using Zod.

```typescript
import { handler, schema } from 'downdetector-mcp/tools/downdetector';

const validatedArgs = schema.parse({
  serviceName: 'steam',
  domain: 'com'
});

const result = await handler(validatedArgs);
console.log(result.content[0].text);
```
