Hubitat MCP Server

Python License mcp-proxy

Expose Hubitat Maker API devices to an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server so AI assistants like Claude Desktop can control your smart home.

It uses the Hubitat Maker API for device access and integrates with the mcp-proxy project.

Features

  • Lists Hubitat devices and their attributes
  • Sends on/off and custom commands to devices
  • Works with MCP-compatible assistants (Claude Desktop, etc.)
  • Supports local or cloud Maker API URLs

Prerequisites

  1. Hubitat Hub with Maker API app installed.
  2. Your Maker API App ID and Access Token.
  3. Python 3.10+ installed.
  4. MCP Proxy installed — mcp-proxy GitHub repo.

Local vs Cloud URLs

Local URL (recommended for speed):

http://<HUBITAT_LOCAL_IP>/apps/api/<APP_ID>/devices

Cloud URL (slower, works remotely):

https://cloud.hubitat.com/api/<CLOUD_ID>/apps/<APP_ID>/devices

Installation

git clone https://github.com/abeardmore/hubitat-mcp.git
cd hubitat-mcp
pip install -r requirements.txt

Configuration

Copy the example environment file:

cp .env.example .env

Edit .env and set:

HUBITAT_BASE_URL=http://192.168.1.50/apps/api/<APP_ID>/devices
HUBITAT_TOKEN=<YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN>

Running the Server

python hubitat_mcp_server.py

Claude Desktop Integration

Add the following to your claude_desktop_config.json file:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "hubitat": {
      "command": "mcp-proxy",
      "args": ["http://localhost:5005"]
    }
  }
}

Restart Claude Desktop. Your Hubitat devices should now be discoverable and controllable.

Usage Ideas

Once your MCP server is running and Claude Desktop is connected, you can ask Claude to perform actions or retrieve information from your Hubitat setup.

Control Devices

Ask Claude to turn things on/off or change settings.

Turn on the Office Corner Lamp.
Set the Living Room Light to 30% brightness.
Turn off all lights in the Office.

List Devices

Get a list of all available devices.

List my Hubitat devices.

Check Device Status

Ask for current state or attribute values.

What is the temperature in the Living Room?
Is the Garage Door open or closed?
Show me the battery level of all my sensors.

Get Insights

Analyze smart home data.

Which lights have been on the longest today?
Show me devices that haven't responded in the past 24 hours.
Summarize my motion sensor activity for today.

Automations & Routines

Design routines and automations.

Create a morning routine that turns on the kitchen lights, starts the coffee maker, and sets the thermostat to 72°F.
Help me make a bedtime routine that turns off all lights and locks the doors.

💡 Tip: Claude can chain actions together and help design complex automations for Hubitat or MCP.
