Optional settings from the registry entry, left out of the block above: MIKROTIK_PASSWORD (RouterOS password (or use MIKROTIK_PASSWORD_FILE)), MIKROTIK_PASSWORD_FILE (Path to file containing the password), MIKROTIK_MODE (readonly | careful (default) | yolo).

Mikrotik REST MCP — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for Mikrotik REST MCP?

Mikrotik REST 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 mikrotik-rest-mcp-server was installed 165 times last week.

How do I connect Mikrotik REST MCP?

Copy the ready config from this page. We generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each in the form that client actually reads. It runs locally, so the command pulls mikrotik-rest-mcp-server straight from pypi; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.

How many people use Mikrotik REST MCP?

The pypi package mikrotik-rest-mcp-server was installed 165 times in the last week. Week over week that is +31%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.

Is Mikrotik REST 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.
