Overview

A Model Context Protocol Server for Home Assistant. This integration allows a user to link their AI assistant (presumably Claude, given the mention of "claude_desktop_config.json") to their smart home hub, enabling the AI assistant to check device status and adjust room settings using plain language. To get started, a user must generate a secure access key and add a quick update in Home Assistant, which involves installing a custom component and configuring the integration with the AI assistant and Home Assistant details. The repository provides usage instructions and references a related issue in the Home Assistant Core issue tracker, indicating that the custom component is moving there.

Q&A

What are the security considerations?

You must generate a secure long‑lived API token and keep it confidential. The server runs locally and communicates over WebSocket, so ensure your Home Assistant instance is protected behind proper authentication and network security measures.

Asked by Hasan Demir · Oct 24, 2025

Is the repository actively maintained?

No, the repository was archived on March 2, 2025 and is now read‑only. The custom component is being migrated to Home Assistant Core, so future updates will come from the core project rather than this repo.

Asked by Liam O’Connor · Aug 4, 2025

Can this tool control any Home Assistant device?

The integration exposes device status and control via the Model Context Protocol, allowing the AI assistant to query and adjust any entity that Home Assistant can manage, as long as the user has proper permissions in Home Assistant.

Asked by Sami Virtanen · Aug 1, 2025

What is required to set up the mcp-server-home-assistant integration?

You need to install the custom component in Home Assistant, generate a long‑lived access token, clone the repo, and add a configuration block to your claude_desktop_config.json that points to your Home Assistant URL and token. Logs can be checked in the specified log file to troubleshoot.
