# Model Context Protocol Server for Home Assistant

The server uses the MCP protocol to share access to a local Home Assistant instance with an LLM application.

A powerful bridge between your Home Assistant instance and Language Learning Models (LLMs), enabling natural language control and monitoring of your smart home devices through the Model Context Protocol (MCP). This server provides a comprehensive API for managing your entire Home Assistant ecosystem, from device control to system administration.

## Features

- 🎮 **Device Control**: Control any Home Assistant device through natural language
- 🔄 **Real-time Updates**: Get instant updates through Server-Sent Events (SSE)
- 🤖 **Automation Management**: Create, update, and manage automations
- 📊 **State Monitoring**: Track and query device states
- 🔐 **Secure**: Token-based authentication and rate limiting
- 📱 **Mobile Ready**: Works with any HTTP-capable client

## Real-time Updates with SSE

The server includes a powerful Server-Sent Events (SSE) system that provides real-time updates from your Home Assistant instance. This allows you to:

- 🔄 Get instant state changes for any device
- 📡 Monitor automation triggers and executions
- 🎯 Subscribe to specific domains or entities
- 📊 Track service calls and script executions

### Quick SSE Example

```javascript
const eventSource = new EventSource(
  'http://localhost:3000/subscribe_events?token=YOUR_TOKEN&domain=light'
);

eventSource.onmessage = (event) => {
  const data = JSON.parse(event.data);
  console.log('Update received:', data);
};
```

See [SSE_API.md](docs/SSE_API.md) for complete documentation of the SSE system.

## API Reference

### MCP Schema Endpoint

The server exposes an MCP (Model Context Protocol) schema endpoint that describes all available tools and their parameters:

```http
GET /mcp
```

This endpoint returns a JSON schema describing all available tools, their parameters, and documentation resources. The schema follows the MCP specification and can be used by LLM clients to understand the server's capabilities.

Example response:
```json
{
  "tools": [
    {
      "name": "list_devices",
      "description": "List all devices connected to Home Assistant",
      "parameters": {
        "type": "object",
        "properties": {
          "domain": {
            "type": "string",
            "enum": ["light", "climate", "alarm_control_panel", ...]
          },
          "area": { "type": "string" },
          "floor": { "type": "string" }
        }
      }
    },
    // ... other tools
  ],
  "prompts": [],
  "resources": [
    {
      "name": "Home Assistant API",
      "url": "https://developers.home-assistant.io/docs/api/rest/"
    }
  ]
}
```

Note: The `/mcp` endpoint is publicly accessible and does not require authentication, as it only provides schema information.

const ws = new WebSocket('ws://localhost:3000/ws');

ws.onmessage = (event) => {
  const data = JSON.parse(event.data);
  console.log('Received update:', data);
};
```

#### Supported Events

- `context_update`: Emitted when context is updated
- `action_executed`: Emitted when an action is completed
- `error`: Emitted when an error occurs

**Example Event Data:**
```json
{
  "event": "state_change",

    "details": {
      "missing_fields": ["room"]
    }
  }
}
```

### Rate Limiting

The API implements rate limiting to prevent abuse:

- 100 requests per minute per IP for regular endpoints
- 1000 requests per minute per IP for WebSocket connections

When rate limit is exceeded, the server returns:

```json
{
  "error": {
    "code": "RATE_LIMIT_EXCEEDED",
    "message": "Too many requests",
    "reset_time": "2024-03-20T10:31:00Z"
  }
}
```

### Example Usage

#### Using curl
```bash
# Get current state
curl -X GET \
  http://localhost:3000/api/state \
  -H 'Authorization: ApiKey your_api_key_here'

# Execute action
curl -X POST \
  http://localhost:3000/api/action \
  -H 'Authorization: ApiKey your_api_key_here' \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -d '{
    "action": "turn_on_lights",
    "parameters": {
      "room": "living_room",
      "brightness": 80
    }
  }'
```

#### Using JavaScript
```javascript

async function executeAction() {
  const response = await fetch('http://localhost:3000/api/action', {
    method: 'POST',
    headers: {
      'Authorization': 'ApiKey your_api_key_here',
      'Content-Type': 'application/json'
    },
    body: JSON.stringify({
      action: 'turn_on_lights',
      parameters: {
        room: 'living_room',
        brightness: 80
      }
    })
  });
  
  const data = await response.json();
  console.log('Action result:', data);
}
```

## OpenAI Integration

The server includes powerful AI analysis capabilities powered by OpenAI's GPT-4 model. This feature provides intelligent analysis of your Home Assistant setup through two main modes:

### 1. Standard Analysis

Performs a comprehensive system analysis including:
- System Overview
- Performance Analysis
- Security Assessment
- Optimization Recommendations
- Maintenance Tasks

```bash
# Run standard analysis
npm run test:openai
# Select option 1 when prompted
```

### 2. Custom Prompt Analysis

Allows you to ask specific questions about your Home Assistant setup. The analysis can include:
- Device States
- Configuration Details
- Active Devices
- Device Attributes (brightness, temperature, etc.)

```bash
# Run custom analysis
npm run test:openai
# Select option 2 when prompted
```

#### Available Variables
When using custom prompts, you can use these variables:
- `{device_count}`: Total number of devices
- `{device_types}`: List of device types
- `{device_states}`: Current states of devices
- `{device_examples}`: Example devices and their states

#### Example Custom Prompts
```
"Show me all active lights"
"Which devices in {device_types} need maintenance?"
"Analyze my {device_count} devices and suggest automations"
```

### Configuration

To use the OpenAI integration, you need to set up your OpenAI API key in the `.env` file:
```env
OPENAI_API_KEY=your_openai_api_key
```

### Features
- 🔍 Intelligent device state analysis
- 📊 System health assessment
- 🤖 Smart automation suggestions
- 🔧 Maintenance recommendations
- 💡 Custom query support
- 🔄 Real-time device state information

### Token Usage Optimization
The analysis tool includes smart token usage optimization:
- Automatic filtering of relevant devices based on query
- Fallback to summarized data for large systems
- Intelligent attribute selection based on device types
- Automatic retry with condensed information if token limit is reached
