Educator morning course health check for Canvas LMS. Shows submission rates, struggling students, grade distribution, and upcoming deadlines. Trigger phrases include "morning check", "course status", "how are my students", or any start-of-day teaching review.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Canvas Morning Check A comprehensive course health check for educators using Canvas LMS. Run it at the start of a teaching day or week to surface submission gaps, students who need support, and upcoming deadlines -- then take action directly from the results. ## Prerequisites - **Canvas MCP server** must be running and connected to the agent's MCP client. - The authenticated user must have an **educator or instructor role** in the target Canvas course(s). - **FERPA-conscious handling**: Set `ENABLE_DATA_ANONYMIZATION=true` in the Canvas MCP server environment to anonymize supported student identity fields in output.

Use the `list_courses` MCP tool if you need to look up available courses. ### 2. Collect Recent Submission Data For each target course: …

How to install
mdr add vishalsachdev/canvas-mcp/canvas-morning-check@sha256:f2e124d3336f79fdThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260925.e9456c6, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
