This integration connects AI assistants to Home Assistant devices, allowing them to search for and control these devices using natural language commands through Cursor.

MCP servers are packaged differently from each other -- some run via npx, some as a Docker image, some as a plain script you clone and run. home-assistant-mcp’s own README did not state one plainly enough for this page to quote it rather than guess, so it will not guess. The repository below states it.

Unverified means a mention in the server’s own description, not a citation. A wrong claim here costs nothing to correct and nothing to trust yet.
