Overview
What is MCP Server UniFi?
MCP Server UniFi is a server that wraps the UniFi Network API, enabling natural language interactions with your UniFi network devices through AI agents like Goose and Claude. It allows querying sites and devices on a local UniFi network using the Management Control Protocol (MCP).
How to use MCP Server UniFi?
Obtain a UniFi API key from your UniFi console (Settings » Control Plane » Integrations). Clone the repository, create a virtual environment with uv, install dependencies via uv sync, and set the UNIFI_API_KEY environment variable. Start the development server with uv run mcp dev main.py, then integrate with Goose AI (via custom extension configuration) or Claude Desktop (by editing claude_desktop_config.json).
Key features of MCP Server UniFi
- Query UniFi sites and devices using natural language
