It exposes Home Assistant's device control, state queries, service calls, and automation management through an MCP interface, allowing AI models to interact with smart homes using natural language. The package can run as a Home Assistant custom component (in-process, recommended), a standalone add-on, Docker container, or via PyPI/uvx as an HTTP server. It depends on fastmcp for MCP protocol handling, httpx for HTTP requests, pydantic for data validation, python-dotenv for environment configuration, cryptography and truststore for secure connections, and packaging utilities.\n\nThe server supports multiple deployment modes and authentication strategies\u2014webhook-based remote access through Nabu Casa or reverse proxies, local-only operation, optional Home Assistant account sign-in, and OIDC integration for external identity providers. A Home Assistant sidebar panel allows administrators to manage tools, feature flags, and settings. The package is actively maintained (last commit 2026-08-14) and marked Production/Stable.","worth_installing":"Yes. Active maintenance, low install friction, permissive MIT license, no known vulnerabilities, and broad Python 3.13\u20133.14 support make it a solid choice. The custom component integration path is particularly smooth for Home Assistant users. Install if you want AI assistants to control your smart home; the recommended in-process setup requires no separate token management."},"id":"ha-mcp","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/ha-mcp","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/ha-mcp.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/ha-mcp/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-08-10","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"ha-mcp","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"Home Assistant MCP Server - Complete control of Home Assistant through MCP"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":427611,"position":6748,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"8.2.0"}
