What is the AdGuard Home MCP Server?
Connect your AdGuard Home instance to any AI agent and take full control of your network-wide privacy and security through natural conversation.
What you can do
- Server Status — Monitor server health, active ports, protection states, and version information in real-time.
- Protection Control — Toggle global filtering, safe browsing, and parental controls on or off, with optional timed durations.
- DNS Configuration — View and update upstream DNS servers, bootstrap settings, and cache parameters (TTL, size, and optimistic caching).
- Filter Management — Add new blocklist or allowlist URLs and manage custom user-defined filtering rules.
- Client Insights — List and search for persistent or runtime clients, and configure specific security settings for individual devices.
- Host Auditing — Instantly check if a specific domain is being filtered or blocked for a particular client.
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Enter your AdGuard Home Base URL and credentials (Username/Password)
- Start managing your network security from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client
Who is this for?
- Home Lab Enthusiasts — monitor and tweak your network-wide ad blocker without opening the web dashboard.
- Network Administrators — quickly update upstream DNS providers or check why a specific host is being blocked.
- Privacy-focused Users — manage custom filtering rules and client-specific protections through simple voice or text commands.

Frequently asked questions
Can I check if a specific website is being blocked for a specific client?
Yes, use the check_host tool. Provide the domain name and optionally the client IP to see if it's filtered and which rule is responsible.
Is it possible to pause the ad-blocking globally for a short period?
Yes. The set_protection tool allows you to disable filtering globally. You can also specify a duration in milliseconds if you want it to re-enable automatically.
How do I add a new blocklist URL using the AI?
Simply use the add_filter_url action. You'll need to provide a name for the filter, the URL of the list, and specify if it's a whitelist or blocklist.
How does Pydantic AI discover MCP tools?
Create an MCPServerHTTP instance with the server URL. Pydantic AI connects, discovers all tools, and generates typed Python interfaces automatically.
Does Pydantic AI validate MCP tool responses?
Yes. When you define result types as Pydantic models, every tool response is validated against the schema. Invalid data raises a clear error instead of silently corrupting your pipeline.
Can I switch LLM providers without changing MCP code?
Absolutely. Pydantic AI abstracts the model layer. your AdGuard Home MCP integration works identically with OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, or any supported provider.
