From the repository

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).

Claude Desktop / Cursor

Paste into your MCP client config file to install this server.

# MCP Server UniFi A server implementation for managing and controlling UniFi network devices through MCP (Management Control Protocol). This server enables natural language interactions with your UniFi network using AI agents like Goose and Claude by wrapping the UniFi Network API. ## Features - Query UniFi sites and devices using natural language through AI agents - Local server implementation that connects to your UniFi Network application - Compatible with both Goose AI and Claude Desktop - Secure API key-based authentication ## Prerequisites - Python 3.8 or higher - `uv` package manager - UniFi Network application - UniFi API key (obtained from UniFi console) ## Setup 1. Create an API key: - Go to your UniFi console at https://unifi.ui.com - Navigate to Settings » Control Plane » Integrations - Click "Create API Key" 2. Clone and set up the repository: ```bash git clone https://github.com/zcking/mcp-server-unifi cd mcp-server-unifi uv venv source .venv/bin/activate # On Unix/macOS # or .venv\Scripts\activate # On Windows ``` 3. Install dependencies: ```bash uv sync ``` 4. Configure environment variables: ```bash export UNIFI_API_KEY="your_api_key_here" ``` ## Running the Server Start the MCP development server: ```bash uv run mcp dev main.py ``` The MCP Inspector will be available at http://localhost:5173 for testing and debugging. ## AI Agent Integration ### Goose AI Setup 1. Open Goose and go to Settings » Extensions » Add custom extension 2. Configure the extension: - ID: unifi - Name: unifi - Description: Get information about your UniFi network - Command: `/Users/username/.local/bin/uv --directory /path/to/mcp-server-unifi run main.py` - Environment Variables: Set UNIFI_API_KEY to your API key ### Claude Desktop Setup 1. Open Claude and go to Settings » Developer » Edit Config 2. Add to your `claude_desktop_config.json`: ```json { "mcpServers": { "unifi": { "command": "/Users/username/.local/bin/uv", "args": [ "--directory", "/path/to/mcp-server-unifi", "run", "main.py" ] } } } ```
