Homeswift: an MCP bridge for HomeKit
Homeswift presents itself as an open-source MCP server that lets Claude or another compatible agent inspect and control HomeKit devices.
- For
- HomeKit users connecting Claude or other MCP agents
- Worth noticing
- Unlocks, configuration edits, and bridge restarts are previewed as dry runs; locks, garage doors, and alarms always require approval.
Field notes
The page lays out three permission levels—Read, Control, and Administer—and says Claude or another MCP client connects through a web UI account or token. It describes a dry-run approval step for sensitive changes, a separate guarded path for locks, garage doors, and alarms, plus an audit log that records who requested each change and what happened. The site lists 46 MCP tools and says device and log text is treated as untrusted input; these are homepage descriptions, not independently tested behavior.
