Zigbee2mqtt MCP runs on your own machine — the client starts it, so there is no endpoint to ping. 50 installs a week from npm. Last commit 11 Aug 2026.
Administer a Zigbee2MQTT estate: health, mesh diagnostics, OTA, pairing, device management.
Today is the operative word: we check Zigbee2mqtt MCP every 15 minutes and re-read its code on every release. Watch it and you find out the day that stops being true.
This server runs on your own machine — install it with the package manager and the client starts it for you. Package name taken from the official registry entry.

This one needs environment variables set before it will start:
Z2M_MQTT_URL (MQTT broker URL used by Zigbee2MQTT, e.g. mqtt://192.168.1.10:1883. Supports mqtt://, mqtts://, ws:// and wss://. This is the broker, not the Zigbee2MQTT frontend port.), Z2M_MQTT_USERNAME (MQTT broker username, if the broker requires authentication.), Z2M_MQTT_PASSWORD (MQTT broker password, if the broker requires authentication.), Z2M_BASE_TOPIC (Zigbee2MQTT base topic. Must match mqtt.base_topic in configuration.yaml. Defaults to zigbee2mqtt.), Z2M_WRITE_MODE (Tool exposure tier: off (read-only), safe (default; adds non-destructive writes such as pairing, options, rename and binding) or full (adds device removal, OTA flashing, Touchlink and bridge restart).).
The author declared them in the registry entry; get the values from the project itself.
