Oxidized MCP runs on your own machine — the client starts it, so there is no endpoint to ping. 124 installs a week from pypi. Last commit 27 Sep 2026.
MCP server for Oxidized network device configuration backups
Today is the operative word: we check Oxidized 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:
OXIDIZED_URL (Oxidized web base URL (e.g., http://localhost:8888)), OXIDIZED_USERNAME (HTTP Basic auth username (e.g., for a reverse proxy in front of oxidized-web)), OXIDIZED_PASSWORD (HTTP Basic auth password), OXIDIZED_VERIFY_SSL (Verify SSL certificates (true/false)), OXIDIZED_TIMEOUT (Request timeout in seconds), OXIDIZED_SEARCH_TIMEOUT (Timeout in seconds for configuration searches (oxidized-web reads every stored configuration)), OXIDIZED_REDACT_NODE_VARS (Redact node vars (may contain device credentials) in tool output), READ_ONLY_MODE (Enable read-only mode to restrict write operations), OXIDIZED_DISABLED_TAGS (Comma-separated list of tags to disable tools for), LOG_LEVEL (Logging level (DEBUG, INFO, WARNING, ERROR, CRITICAL)), RATE_LIMIT_ENABLED (Enable rate limiting), RATE_LIMIT_MAX_REQUESTS (Maximum requests per rate limit window), RATE_LIMIT_WINDOW_MINUTES (Rate limit window in minutes), TOOL_SEARCH_ENABLED (Enable FastMCP tool search transform), TOOL_SEARCH_STRATEGY (Tool search strategy (bm25 or regex)), TOOL_SEARCH_MAX_RESULTS (Maximum tool search results returned by search_tools), MCP_HTTP_PORT (Port for HTTP server (default: 8000)), MCP_TRANSPORT (MCP transport type (http for HTTP, stdio for stdio)).
