wardrowbe-mcp

MCP (Model Context Protocol) server exposing the Wardrowbe wardrobe API as tools an LLM can call. Works against any Wardrowbe instance — self-hosted (e.g., behind a reverse proxy or the ha-wardrowbe Home Assistant add-on) or a hosted/cloud deployment.

22 tools covering outfit suggestions, item browsing, wear/wash logging, acceptance flow, analytics, and notifications. Tool surface mirrors hacs-wardrowbe's LLM API one-for-one, plus three read-only helpers (list_items, get_item, get_outfit).

Install

pip install wardrowbe-mcp

Or from source:

pip install git+https://github.com/saya6k/mcp-wardrowbe

Run

wardrowbe-mcp \
  --wardrowbe-url https://wardrowbe.example.com \
  --api-key "$(openssl rand -hex 32)" \
  --auth oidc \
  --oidc-issuer-url https://id.example.com \
  --oidc-client-id wardrowbe \
  --oidc-refresh-token "<refresh-token>"

The process listens on 0.0.0.0:8080 by default and serves both transports at the root:

• http://<host>:8080/mcp — Streamable HTTP (recommended)

• http://<host>:8080/sse — Server-Sent Events (legacy MCP clients)

• http://<host>:8080/ — anonymous health/info probe

All non-probe routes require Authorization: Bearer <api-key>.

Every flag has a matching environment variable so you can drive it from a shell environment, a .env, or a container orchestrator without rewriting the command line:

Auth to the Wardrowbe backend

Two modes, selected by --auth:

• dev — sends {external_id, email, display_name} to POST /auth/sync. Works only when the Wardrowbe backend itself is in dev mode (its DEBUG=true and SECRET_KEY left at the upstream default).

• oidc — refreshes a stored refresh_token against the configured issuer to mint a fresh id_token, then /auth/sync. The refresh token must come from a one-time interactive PKCE flow you run yourself — there is no in-process browser callback because the MCP server is headless. Once obtained, the server rotates the token automatically if the IDP returns a new one.

get_refresh_token.py — a minimal one-shot PKCE helper — is the easiest way to bootstrap OIDC. Edit the four constants at the top (ISSUER, CLIENT_ID, CLIENT_SECRET, REDIRECT_URI), register that redirect URI on your IDP client, then run:

python3 get_refresh_token.py

A browser opens against the IDP; after you authenticate the script prints the refresh_token to stdout. Paste it into --oidc-refresh-token (or the MCP_OIDC_REFRESH_TOKEN env var) when starting wardrowbe-mcp. The script needs the offline_access scope to be allowed on your IDP client; otherwise the token endpoint omits refresh_token from the response. Common IDPs verified: Pocket ID. Should work with any OIDC-conformant provider (Keycloak, Authentik, Auth0, etc.).

Client config

Claude Code / Claude Desktop

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "wardrowbe": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "http://<host>:8080/mcp",
      "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer <api-key>" }
    }
  }
}

For SSE-only clients, swap "type": "http" → "type": "sse" and /mcp → /sse.

Other MCP-aware clients

Any client that supports HTTP transport with a Bearer header works. The server advertises tools, instructions, and a bundled agentskills.io-compatible skill at skill://wardrowbe-skill/SKILL.md (plus sibling resources).

Skill bundle

wardrowbe_mcp/skill/ ships inside the package as the agent-facing documentation: a SKILL.md manifest with usage guidance and three worked examples under examples/. The MCP server registers each file as an MCP resource at startup, so MCP clients that auto-install skills pick it up automatically. Manual install is also possible by copying the directory into the client's skill discovery path.

The bundle's prose currently mentions the ha-wardrowbe add-on as the canonical deployment. If you're running this against a different Wardrowbe deployment, edit SKILL.md to match.
