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.

run in your terminal
claude mcp add home-assistant-mcp -- npx -y @coolver/home-assistant-mcp
~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "home-assistant-mcp": {
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@coolver/home-assistant-mcp"
      ],
      "command": "npx"
    }
  }

  "mcpServers": {

      ],
      "command": "npx"
    }
  }
}

This one needs environment variables set before it will start: HA_AGENT_URL (URL of your on-board Home Assistant Vibecode Agent add-on (generated after installation of the add-on)), HA_AGENT_KEY (Access key generated by the Home Assistant Vibecode Agent add-on after installation). The author declared them in the registry entry; get the values from the project itself.

Home Assistant MCP — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for Home Assistant MCP?
Home Assistant MCP runs on your own machine over stdio — there is no network address to reach, so uptime cannot be measured for it by anyone. What can be measured is adoption: the npm package @coolver/home-assistant-mcp was installed 217 times last week.
How do I connect Home Assistant MCP?
Copy the ready config from this page — we generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each with the file path that client actually reads. It runs locally, so the command pulls @coolver/home-assistant-mcp straight from npm; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use Home Assistant MCP?
The npm package @coolver/home-assistant-mcp was installed 217 times in the last week. Week over week that is +50%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is Home Assistant MCP open source?
Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, written in TypeScript, 57 stars on GitHub and 2 open issues. The source link is on this page, so you can read exactly what it does with your data before you connect it.
