LibreNMS MCP

LibreNMS MCP Server is a Python-based Model Context Protocol (MCP) server designed to provide advanced, programmable access to LibreNMS network monitoring data and management features. It exposes a modern API for querying, automating, and integrating LibreNMS resources such as devices, ports, alerts, inventory, locations, logs, and more. The server supports both read and write operations, robust security features…. Its 40 documented tools cover device, devicegroup, ports, location.

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

01 · Install LibreNMS MCP

before you install - you'll need

Set LIBRENMS_URL, LIBRENMS_TOKEN, LIBRENMS_VERIFY_SSL, LIBRENMS_TIMEOUT, READ_ONLY_MODE, LOG_LEVEL, RATE_LIMIT_ENABLED, RATE_LIMIT_MAX_REQUESTS, RATE_LIMIT_WINDOW_MINUTES, TOOL_SEARCH_ENABLED, TOOL_SEARCH_STRATEGY before connecting. TOOL_SEARCH_MAX_RESULTS is optional or environment-specific per the README.

Claude Code

claude mcp add mhajder-librenms-mcp -- uvx librenms-mcp

Claude Desktop / Cursor / VS Code - add to config

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mhajder-librenms-mcp": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "librenms-mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

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

02 · Evidence

Security posture

What to check before giving this server access to your agent - from the registry, GitHub, and our own probes. We don't score safety; we show what's verifiable.

runs as local process (stdio) - runs on your machine with your user's permissions · container (OCI image) - can be sandboxed away from your filesystem

license MIT - declared in the repository

pypi package librenms-mcp - check the name against the project README before installing (PyPI has no namespace ownership)

registry namespace io.github.mhajder is GitHub-verified and matches the repo owner

06 · LibreNMS MCP FAQ

Is LibreNMS MCP still maintained?

Yes - as of 2026-08-25, its last commit was 2026-08-20 and it shipped 6 releases in the last 90 days. We re-verify nightly.

What can LibreNMS MCP do?

With this server connected, an agent can list all devices (with optional filters), get details for a specific device, add a new device, and update device metadata.

How do I install LibreNMS MCP?

Run `uvx librenms-mcp`. The README documents 12 environment variables (LIBRENMS_URL, LIBRENMS_TOKEN, LIBRENMS_VERIFY_SSL…) to set first. Set LIBRENMS_URL, LIBRENMS_TOKEN, LIBRENMS_VERIFY_SSL, LIBRENMS_TIMEOUT, READ_ONLY_MODE, LOG_LEVEL, RATE_LIMIT_ENABLED, RATE_LIMIT_MAX_REQUESTS, RATE_LIMIT_WINDOW_MINUTES, TOOL_SEARCH_ENABLED, TOOL_SEARCH_STRATEGY before connecting. TOOL_SEARCH_MAX_RESULTS is optional or environment-specific per the README. You can also paste the ready-made client config above.

Does LibreNMS MCP run locally?

Yes - it's a stdio server: it runs on your machine (via uvx) with your user's permissions. Your data stays local unless the server itself calls external APIs.
