About iot-device-mcp-server

iot-device-mcp-server is an MCP server published by AiAgentKarl in the IoT category: mCP Server for IoT Device Management — register, monitor, and control IoT devices via AI agents.

Six months or more without a commit doesn't mean the server is broken, but check the open issues before depending on it in production.

Install

uvx
uvx iot-device-mcp-server
pip
pip install iot-device-mcp-server

This server has no ConduID identity, so agent calls to it are not receipted. Pin the version you install and review the source before granting it credentials.

IoT Device Management MCP Server

PyPI version

MCP Server for IoT Device Management — Register, monitor, and control IoT devices via AI agents.

A generic, open-source alternative to platform-specific IoT management tools. No cloud API key required — all data stored locally.

Features

  • Device Registry — Register and manage IoT devices (sensors, actuators, gateways, cameras)
  • Real-time Status — Monitor device health, telemetry, and connectivity
  • Remote Commands — Send commands (reboot, enable, disable, calibrate) to devices
  • Firmware Updates — Track and simulate firmware update workflows
  • Alert Management — Create, filter, and resolve device alerts
  • Fleet Analytics — Health scores, status summaries, and recommendations
  • Fleet Dashboard — Single-view overview of your entire device fleet

Tools

Installation

pip install iot-device-mcp-server

Usage with Claude Desktop

Add to your claude_desktop_config.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "iot-device": {
      "command": "iot-device-mcp-server"
    }
  }
}

Example Workflow

Agent: "Register a temperature sensor in the server room"
→ register_device(name="Temp Sensor 01", device_type="sensor", location="Server Room")

Agent: "What's the current status?"
→ get_device_status(device_id="dev_abc123")

Agent: "Reboot the sensor"
→ send_command(device_id="dev_abc123", command="reboot")

Agent: "Are there any critical alerts?"
→ get_alerts(severity="critical")

Agent: "Show me the fleet health"
→ device_analytics()

Supported Device Types

  • sensor — Temperature, humidity, pressure sensors
  • actuator — Relays, motors, valves
  • gateway — IoT edge gateways and routers
  • camera — IP cameras and video devices
  • Custom types also supported

Supported Protocols

  • MQTT (default)
  • HTTP/HTTPS
  • CoAP
  • LoRa/LoRaWAN

Data Storage

All data is stored locally in ~/.iot_device_store.json. No cloud services required.

Why This Server?

  • Platform-agnostic — Works with any IoT setup, no vendor lock-in
  • No API keys — Fully local, no cloud dependency
  • AI-ready — Natural language device management via Claude or any MCP-compatible AI
  • Open source — MIT license, fork and extend freely
