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 smartrent-mcp -- uvx smartrent-mcp
~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "smartrent-mcp": {
      "args": [
        "smartrent-mcp"
      ],
      "command": "uvx"
    }
  }
}
~/.codex/config.toml
[mcp_servers.smartrent-mcp]
command = "uvx"
args = ["smartrent-mcp"]
.cursor/mcp.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "smartrent-mcp": {
      "args": [
        "smartrent-mcp"
      ],
      "command": "uvx"
    }

This one needs environment variables set before it will start: SMARTRENT_EMAIL (Your SmartRent account email), SMARTRENT_PASSWORD (Your SmartRent account password). The author declared them in the registry entry; get the values from the project itself.

Smartrent MCP — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for Smartrent MCP?
Smartrent 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 pypi package smartrent-mcp was installed 69 times last week.
How do I connect Smartrent 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 smartrent-mcp straight from pypi; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use Smartrent MCP?
The pypi package smartrent-mcp was installed 69 times in the last week. Week over week that is -33%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is Smartrent MCP open source?
Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, written in Python and 0 stars on GitHub. The source link is on this page, so you can read exactly what it does with your data before you connect it.
