unifi-grant-device-access

unifi-grant-device-access is a skill for Claude Code from mikeholownych/unifi-mcp. It costs 42 tokens per session (925 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A UniFi network-access procedure for giving one device a reserved IP address and ongoing permission to reach other network zones.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for a desktop, server, NAS, or other device that must consistently reach selected networks or services. It identifies the device, its MAC address, network zone, and required rules.
Why use it?
It avoids access rules that depend on a changing IP address and helps prevent existing zone-firewall policies from blocking the device.

Token cost

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.

Security

Grade A, and why

unifi-grant-device-access 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 12d 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.

Step 0 — Version check (always first)

Fetch get_sysinfo and note the Network application version. The controller facts in this skill were verified on Network 10.x / UniFi OS 5.x; on older versions expect differences (e.g., legacy stat/alarm exists, band steering uses an older flag). Adapt claims to the version you see.

UniFi Grant Device Access

Guarantee a specific device (e.g., a desktop, server, or NAS) can always reach everything on the network: DHCP reservation + zone-based firewall allow rules, scoped to that device's MACs.

Context (read first)

  1. Require UNIFI_MODE=local. Resolve the device:
    • If given an IP/name, find it via list_all_clients (has MACs) and get_client_details.
    • If not found in known clients, ask the user to connect it once, or accept a MAC address directly.
  2. Map zones: get_firewall_policies — note each policy's source/destination zone_id. Identify:
    • The zone containing the device's current network.
    • Which destination zones are already covered by existing rules for these MACs.

Controller facts

  • Zone firewall policies are per src-zone→dst-zone pairs; there is no "any zone" target. One rule per pair is required.
  • Deriving the source zone: the controller does not expose zone names or a networks→zones mapping. Find it by locating an existing custom policy scoped to known devices on the same network (source.client_macs of rules like "Allow to X ALL") and copying its source.zone_id. Do not guess by elimination — gateway-like zones allow-all everywhere and look similar to home zones in policy dumps.
  • The controller auto-creates "(Return)" companion policies for custom rules.
  • Some zone pairs are rejected at creation ("traffic not allowed") — typically ISP-managed IPTV and WAN pairs. Surface the verbatim error and skip that pair; it is usually intentional (nothing to access there anyway).
  • Do not create rules targeting the EXTERNAL/WAN zone — internet access is governed by the home zone's general policy, and bypassing it undermines forced-internal-DNS designs.
  • DHCP reservation = use_fixedip:true + fixed_ip on the client record.
