Kiaaccess MCP runs on your own machine — the client starts it, so there is no endpoint to ping. 330 installs a week from npm. Last commit 4 Nov 2026.
Kia Access for Claude — vehicle status, location, doors, climate, and charging
Today is the operative word: we check Kiaaccess 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.

Put your own values in place of
<KIA_USERNAME> (Your Kia Owners Portal / Kia Access account email address), <KIA_PASSWORD> (Your Kia Owners Portal / Kia Access account password).
The author’s registry entry marks them as required.
Optional settings from the registry entry, left out of the block above:
KIA_WRITE_MODE (Write-tool gate: "none" registers no vehicle commands; "comfort" registers climate and charging only; "all" adds door lock/unlock (default "comfort"). Unrecognized values fail closed to "none"), KIA_DEVICE_ID (Optional stable device UUID used for the app login handshake. Generated and cached under ~/.kiaaccess-mcp/ when omitted), KIA_RMTOKEN (Optional. A remember-me token from a completed MFA bootstrap elsewhere (copy `rmtoken` out of that machine's ~/.kiaaccess-mcp/session.json). Set it and the one-time bootstrap is skipped entirely; set KIA_DEVICE_ID to the SAME value that was in effect during the bootstrap), KIA_REQUEST_TIMEOUT_MS (Optional. Per-request deadline for Kia API calls, in milliseconds (default 30000)), KIA_SESSION_FILE (Optional. Where the session store lives (default ~/.kiaaccess-mcp/session.json)).
