Tools
Functions exposed to the LLM to take actions
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| scene_configureA | Configure the Home Assistant connection for the Scene MCP server. Required before using other scene_ tools if not already configured via environment variables. |
| scene_show_lightsA | SAFE read-only tool. Shows ALL Home Assistant lights with FULL details. Does NOT change anything. Use this to answer questions about light states, colors, brightness. Returns: state (on/off), brightness_pct, color_mode ('color_temp' for white light, 'rgb'/'hs'/'xy' for colored light), color_temp_kelvin (for white mode), rgb_color (for color mode). IMPORTANT: When color_mode is 'color_temp', the light is in WHITE mode - do NOT report RGB values as those are just approximations. |
| scene_adjust_lightA | PREFERRED for controlling lights. Turn on/off, set brightness (0-100%), RGB color, color temperature (Kelvin), or effects. IMPORTANT: This only changes the light's current state - it does NOT save to any scene. REQUIRES user_confirmed=true - user must explicitly request the change. |
| scene_createA | Create a NEW scene in Home Assistant. ONLY call when user EXPLICITLY asks to create/save a NEW scene. Before calling: 1) Show current lights with scene_show_lights, 2) Ask user for mode: 'exclusive' or 'additive'. Do NOT call this to update existing scenes - use scene_update for that. |
| scene_listB | List all scenes from Home Assistant |
| scene_activateA | Activate a scene in Home Assistant. REQUIRES user_confirmed=true - user must explicitly request scene activation. |
| scene_deleteC | Delete a scene from Home Assistant |
| scene_updateA | Update an existing scene with current light states. ONLY call this when user EXPLICITLY asks to save/update a scene. Do NOT call automatically after adjusting lights. For exclusive mode: captures ALL lights (on lights with settings, off lights as 'off'). |
| scene_blackoutA | Turn off ALL lights. Optionally create/update a 'Blackout' scene. REQUIRES user_confirmed=true - user must explicitly request blackout. |
| scene_diagnoseA | Diagnose lights and scenes. Tests connectivity, response times, identifies problems with scenes (null values, missing lights, etc.), and provides recommendations. If test_connectivity=true, REQUIRES user_confirmed=true because it toggles lights. |
| scene_fixA | Fix problems found by scene_diagnose. Can fix null values, add missing lights to exclusive scenes, restore from backup, or interactively test and fix a specific scene. test_scene action REQUIRES user_confirmed=true because it changes lights. |
| scene_syncA | Sync local backup with Home Assistant. Fetches all scenes from HA and updates local backup to match. Useful for ensuring backup is current before making changes. |
| scene_historyB | View history of scene changes (snapshots). Shows what the scene looked like before recent updates or deletions. Useful for debugging or understanding what changed. |
