Windows • Other Clients

For any MCP client that supports stdio transport:

1. Install the package:

pip install mqtt-mcp-server

2. Configure with these values:

  • Command: python (not python3)
  • Args: ["-m", "mqtt_mcp.server"]
  • Environment variables:
    • MQTT_HOST - Your broker IP/hostname
    • MQTT_PORT - Broker port (usually 1883)
    • MQTT_USERNAME - Optional username
    • MQTT_PASSWORD - Optional password

Available Tools

After installation, ask your AI assistant: "What MQTT tools are available?"

You should see 4 tools:

topics

Discover MQTT topics on your broker.

Parameters:
- scan_timeout: Scan duration in seconds (1-60, default: 10)
- keywords: Filter topics by keywords
- limit: Max results (1-200, default: 50)

value

Read current values from topics (uses cache for speed).

Parameters:
- topics: List of topic paths (required)
- timeout: Wait time per topic (1-60, default: 5)

publish

Send commands to MQTT devices.

Parameters:
- messages: List of {topic, payload, qos, retain}
- timeout: Network timeout (1-30, default: 3)

record

Monitor MQTT events in real-time.

Parameters:
- timeout: Recording duration (1-300, default: 30)
- topics: Specific topics to monitor
- keywords: Filter by keywords

Troubleshooting

"python3 not found" (Windows)

Use 'python' instead of 'python3' in all commands

"Connection refused"

1. Check MQTT broker is running
2. Verify MQTT_HOST and MQTT_PORT are correct
3. Check firewall settings
4. Test connection: mosquitto_sub -h YOUR_HOST -p 1883 -t "#"

"Module not found: mqtt_mcp"

Install the package: pip install mqtt-mcp-server
If using venv, make sure it's activated

Tools not appearing

1. Restart your AI client
2. Check JSON syntax in config file
3. Verify connection: claude mcp list (or codex mcp list)
4. Check logs (location depends on client)

Permission errors (Linux/macOS)

Use pip3 install --user mqtt-mcp-server
Or install in virtual environment
