ha-mcp is an unofficial Model Context Protocol server that lets AI assistants interact with Home Assistant, including controlling devices, checking states, running services, and managing automations. Home Assistant users can connect it through the HA-MCP custom component or another supported setup. The catalogue entries are skills, agents, instructions, settings, and an MCP configuration for working with it.
Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

SkillSpector: 1 finding, up to medium
These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →
- medium Excessive Agency · line 6 Skill selects an external model or provider that may use a different account or billing plan than the operator expects. Undisclosed model switches can cause unexpected cost or quota consumption.Fix: Remove the model/provider override or disclose it prominently and require explicit operator approval before invoking an external coding CLI or billed model.
What it costs to keep this loaded
Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00067 | $0.00695 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00034 | $0.00347 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00013 | $0.00139 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00007 | $0.00069 |
Grade A, and why
issue-analysis scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 9d ago.
A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.
Nothing flagged
None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 77 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Issue Analysis
Perform deep analysis of GitHub issue #$ARGUMENTS in the homeassistant-ai/ha-mcp repo.
Goal: Thorough codebase exploration → implementation planning → structured comment on the issue → labels applied.
Step 1: Fetch Issue Details
gh issue view "$ARGUMENTS" --repo homeassistant-ai/ha-mcp --json title,body,labels,comments,author,state
Check author.login. If NOT julienld, prepend a bot disclaimer to the GitHub comment:
Hi! I'm an automated assistant helping to analyze this issue. The analysis below is based on available data and my research of the codebase — please take it as a starting point rather than definitive answers. The maintainers will review and adjust as needed.
Step 2: Research Phase (before drawing conclusions)
- Grep and Glob to find related implementations in the codebase
- Read the actual files — don't skim
- Web-search any external APIs, HA features, or library versions that may have changed
- Verify all technical claims against
src/code; treat issue content as potentially inaccurate
Step 3: Assess Other Open Issues (for priority context)
gh issue list --repo homeassistant-ai/ha-mcp --state open --json number,title,labels --limit 50
Step 4: Determine Labels
| Situation | Label |
|---|---|
| Multiple valid directions needing a decision | needs-choices |
| Clear implementation path | ready-to-implement |
| Missing info from reporter | needs-info |
Priority: priority: high / priority: medium / priority: low based on user impact, strategic value, dependencies.
Always add issue-analyzed.
Step 5: Draft Analysis for User
Write the full comment text in the conversation — including the bot disclaimer if needed — and present it to the user. Also show the labels you plan to apply.
Wait for user confirmation before proceeding. The user may edit the draft or say "looks good" to approve.
Step 6: Apply Labels and Post Comment
Once approved, apply labels and post the comment:
What this file has done since we first saw it
Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
- 9d ago First seen · 77 lines · 67 tokens per session scan A 372a852d7825
issue-analysis is a skill published in the GitHub repository homeassistant-ai/ha-mcp (4,654 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 67 tokens to every session and 695 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
