# Tesla Fleet API MCP for AI Agents AI Agent Connect > Tesla Fleet API MCP lets you manage large numbers of Tesla vehicles from a single interface. It handles hardware commands like locking doors, adjusting climate, and pulling deep telemetry like battery levels and GPS coordinates. It's built for professional fleet operators who need to move cars, check status, and manage hardware limits across a large fleet without jumping between different dashboards. ## Overview - **Category:** industry-titans - **Price:** Free - **Endpoint:** https://edge.vinkius.com/vk_preview_STq4hP1VanB8QVqddpe3d7V0GWFvHvbzHada1Gx6/ai-agent-connect - **Tags:** telemetry, hardware-actuation, fleet-operations, gps-tracking, battery-monitoring, remote-control ## Description Imagine you're managing a fleet of fifty Tesla vehicles across three states. Right now, you're probably jumping between different apps just to see where a car is parked or to check if the battery is low enough to make a delivery. This Connector changes that by giving your agent direct access to the vehicle's hardware and telemetry. You can ask your agent to find a specific car, check its tire pressure, or even trigger the climate control to make sure the cabin is comfortable before a driver arrives. It handles the heavy lifting of navigating the fleet's complex command structure, including the necessary steps to wake a car from sleep mode before trying to move it. By connecting this through the Vinkius catalog, you turn your AI into a fleet coordinator that can actually move metal, not just report on it. It's about moving from looking at data to taking action on the physical hardware. ## Tools ### tesla_flash_lights Flashes the external headlights. Use this to signal a driver or locate a car. ### tesla_get_vehicle_data Pulls battery, GPS, and temperature data. This gives you a full snapshot of the car's health. ### tesla_honk_horn Sounds the horn remotely. This is great for finding a car in a crowded lot. ### tesla_list_vehicles Lists every vehicle in your fleet. Use this to get a bird's-eye view of your hardware. ### tesla_trigger_climate Turns on the interior climate control. This ensures the car is ready for the next driver. ### tesla_wake_up_vehicle Wakes the car from sleep mode. This is the required first step for almost all other commands. ### tesla_control_charge_port Opens the charging port relay. Use this to prepare a vehicle for charging. ### tesla_control_doors Locks or unlocks the vehicle doors. This lets you secure the car remotely. ## Prompt Examples **Prompt:** ``` Can you check which cars in the fleet have less than 30% battery and tell me where they are? ``` **Response:** ``` Checking your fleet status... I've identified 3 vehicles with low battery: | Vehicle ID | Location | Battery SoC | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | T-102 | North Warehouse | 24% | | T-205 | East Depot | 28% | | T-309 | South Lot | 19% | I'll let you know if any of these need to be routed to a charger. ``` **Prompt:** ``` Prep car XYZ for the driver. Make sure it's unlocked and the AC is on. ``` **Response:** ``` I'm waking up car XYZ now. I'll wait 10 seconds for the hardware to respond, then I'll engage the climate control and ensure the doors are unlocked for the driver. ``` **Prompt:** ``` Find the car in the north lot and honk the horn so the driver can see it. ``` **Response:** ``` I've located the vehicle in the north lot. Triggering the horn now... **Status:** Horn Actuated. The driver should see it now. ``` ## Capabilities ### Wake vehicles from sleep Trigger the ignition to enable hardware commands on parked cars. ### Remote lock and unlock Control physical door locks for every vehicle in your fleet. ### Check battery and GPS Retrieve SoC, coordinates, and odometer readings instantly. ### Adjust cabin temperature Engage internal climate systems to prep the cabin for drivers. ### Trigger horn and lights Actuate external hardware for alerts or locating cars in lots. ### List all fleet vehicles Get a full inventory of every active vehicle in your fleet array. ## Use Cases ### Prepping a delivery fleet A dispatcher asks the agent to prep 10 cars by turning on climate and checking battery levels before the shift starts. ### Remote security check A manager notices a car is in the wrong spot and asks the agent to lock the doors and flash the lights. ### Logistics tracking An engineer asks for a table of all cars with less than 20% battery and their current GPS locations. ### Emergency signaling A driver can't find the loading dock, so the fleet manager asks the agent to honk the horn. ## Benefits - Stop manually checking each car's status by using tesla_list_vehicles to get a full fleet overview in one go. - Ensure drivers arrive to comfortable cars by using tesla_trigger_climate to prep the cabin before they get in. - Secure your assets instantly with tesla_control_doors, giving you remote control over physical locks. - Get real-time logistics data including battery SoC and GPS coordinates using tesla_get_vehicle_data. - Avoid 408 timeouts by having your agent automatically handle the tesla_wake_up_vehicle sequence first. - Find vehicles in crowded lots quickly by triggering the tesla_honk_horn or tesla_flash_lights remotely. ## How It Works The bottom line is you get a direct line to vehicle hardware without the manual overhead. 1. Set up your regional proxy and get your fleet tokens ready. 2. Ask your agent to find a vehicle or check its status. 3. The agent handles the wake-up sequence and returns the data or confirms the hardware action. ## Frequently Asked Questions **Can I use Tesla Fleet API to manage my company's fleet?** Yes, it's designed for enterprise operators to manage multiple vehicles at once. It allows for bulk status checks and remote commands across your entire inventory. **How do I avoid timeouts when trying to control a car?** You need to wake the car up first. The system handles this sequence to ensure the hardware is ready for commands, which prevents the common 408 timeout error. **Can I check battery levels for all my cars at once?** Yes, you can get a full list of vehicles and their battery status in a single request. This is much faster than checking cars one by one. **Does this work for remote locking and unlocking?** Yes, it allows you to actuate the physical door locks remotely across your fleet. It's a primary way to secure vehicles in a lot. **Can I use it to turn on the air conditioning?** Yes, you can engage the climate system to prep the cabin before a driver arrives. This ensures a comfortable environment for your team. **Is this for personal use or just for businesses?** While anyone can use it, it's specifically built for fleet managers and logistics engineers who need to handle high-volume vehicle operations. **How do I find a specific car in a large parking lot?** You can have your agent trigger the horn or lights to help the driver locate it. It's a quick way to provide visual and audible cues to your staff. **Why does the API return HTTP 408 Timeout explicitly mapping bounds natively?** Because the physical hardware is in Sleep Mode natively. Invoke `wake_up_vehicle` and strictly wait 10 seconds securely before parsing safely natively. **Can I explicitly control HVAC and climate parameters securely mapping local limits?** Yes! Utilize `trigger_climate` exposing logic explicitly securely passing true/false bounds natively generating outputs cleanly. **What explicitly determines the API structural region explicitly mapping connections natively?** The logical standard `TESLA_REGION` proxy explicitly parsing `na` (NA), `eu` (EU) bounds directly over the SDK native HTTP client.
