ESP32 MCP Server
13 points - 05/23/2025
Hello!
https://github.com/horw/esp-mcp
This MCP server has already been published on https://github.com/punkpeye/awesome-mcp-servers .
If you're using ESP-IDF in your project and are looking for an MCP solution, we’d love to collaborate to improve this one!
Feel free to submit an issue or a PR - any contribution is welcome and appreciated!
What would a stack look like to make this useable? I have plenty of esp devices controlling many things. I would need a local AI to make use of it without exposing it online?
It is not clear to me what the purpose of this repo is. Perhaps as a starter, add the non-abbreviated version of MCP.
The purpose of this repo is to move existing ESP-related commands to MCP. It started as a POC, and after some people showed interest, I want to start working harder on this project!
MCP in this case is Model Context Protocol, a protocol for LLM to communicate. This is to improve vibe coding of ESP-IDF projects.

That is not the case for this one. And it doesn't even have Ask HN in the title.
But it was a new post with a few votes? That’s the ratio of time to votes mag have been very high ranking for a moment.
As for the lack of ask hn, I don’t know how it’s decided, but it’s not required for something to be considered one (common case on the ask page)
