Unifi MCP Server

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that exposes the UniFi Network Controller API today and is evolving into a production-grade multi-domain platform for Protect, Access, and enterprise-scale orchestration. It runs locally over stdio via the published package.

People connecting API integration tools to Claude, Cursor, VS Code, or another MCP client. The project is written in Python.

before you install - you'll need

Set UNIFI_API_KEY, UNIFI_LOCAL_HOST, UNIFI_PROFILE, REDIS_HOST, REDIS_PORT, REDIS_DB before connecting. UNIFI_API_TYPE, UNIFI_LOCAL_VERIFY_SSL, MCP_SERVER_TRANSPORT, MCP_SERVER_PORT, UNIFI_LOCAL_PORT, UNIFI_DEFAULT_SITE are optional or environment-specific per the README.

Claude Code

claude mcp add enuno-unifi-mcp-server -- npx -y unifi-mcp-server

Claude Desktop / Cursor / VS Code - add to config

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "enuno-unifi-mcp-server": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "unifi-mcp-server"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Same JSON for Cursor. For VS Code, rename the top-level key from `mcpServers` to `servers`.

Using another client? Same JSON, different key
