What is the Composio Smart Home MCP Server?
Connect to Composio API and control smart home devices across 1000+ integrations through structured JSON arguments or natural language commands. Composio abstracts away authentication and API complexity, giving AI agents a unified interface to control Sensibo, Philips Hue, SmartThings, and hundreds of other smart home ecosystems.
What you can do
- Tool Discovery — List and search all available smart home tools across Composio's extensive integration catalog
- Schema Inspection — View complete parameter schemas for any tool before executing it
- Structured Execution — Execute tools with precise JSON arguments matching each tool's schema
- Natural Language Control — Execute tools using conversational English — Composio's AI parses and maps parameters automatically
- App-Specific Tools — Browse all available actions for specific smart home apps like Sensibo, Philips Hue, etc.
- Multi-Device Control — Access tools for climate control, lighting, security, entertainment, and more
- Unified Interface — One API key gives access to 1000+ smart home integrations without individual auth setup
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Enter your Composio API key (get it at https://app.composio.dev/)
- Start controlling smart home devices from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client
Your AI becomes a universal smart home controller, translating commands into actions across multiple device ecosystems.
Who is this for?
- Smart Home Enthusiasts — control multiple device brands through a single unified interface
- AI Agent Developers — integrate smart home control into AI agents without managing individual API auth
- Property Managers — manage diverse smart home ecosystems across multiple properties
- Automation Builders — compose multi-device workflows using Composio's tool catalog

Frequently asked questions
What smart home devices and apps are supported through Composio?
Composio provides access to 1000+ smart home tool integrations including Sensibo (climate control), Philips Hue (lighting), SmartThings (hub), and many more device ecosystems. Use list_composio_tools to discover all available tools, or search_composio_tools to find tools for specific apps or categories.
What's the difference between executing a tool with arguments vs. with text?
With arguments (execute_composio_tool): You provide a JSON object matching the tool's exact schema. This gives you precise control over every parameter. With text (execute_composio_tool_with_text): You provide natural language instructions like "turn on the AC to 72 degrees" and Composio's AI parses and maps it to the correct parameters. Use arguments for precision, text for convenience.
How do I get a Composio API key?
Visit https://app.composio.dev/ and sign up for a Composio account. Navigate to your API settings or developer dashboard to generate an API key (starts with ak_). The key gives you access to all available smart home tool integrations.
Do I need separate authentication for each smart home app?
No! Composio handles authentication to individual smart home services internally. You only need your Composio API key. However, you may need to connect your accounts to specific services through Composio's connection management first. Use the connected_account_id parameter when executing tools if you have multiple accounts connected.
Which VS Code version supports MCP?
MCP support requires VS Code 1.99 or later with the GitHub Copilot extension. Ensure both are updated to the latest version. Older versions of Copilot may not expose the Agent mode toggle.
How do I switch to Agent mode?
Open the Copilot Chat panel and look for two mode options: "Ask" and "Agent". Click "Agent" to enable autonomous tool calling. In Ask mode, Copilot provides conversational answers but cannot invoke MCP tools.
Can I restrict which MCP tools Copilot can access?
Yes. VS Code shows a tool consent dialog before any MCP tool is invoked for the first time. You can also configure tool access policies at the organization level through GitHub Copilot settings.
Does MCP work in VS Code Remote or Codespaces?
Yes. MCP servers configured via .vscode/mcp.json work in Remote SSH, WSL, and GitHub Codespaces environments. The MCP connection is established from the remote host, so ensure the server URL is accessible from that environment.
MCP tools not available
Ensure you are in Agent mode in Copilot Chat. MCP tools only appear in Agent mode.
