## Overview

MikroTik MCP provides a bridge between AI assistants and MikroTik RouterOS devices. It allows AI assistants to interact with MikroTik routers through natural language requests, executing commands like managing VLANs, configuring firewall rules, handling DNS settings, and more.

### Inventory
> [!NOTE]
> Since MikroTik MCP version `0.14.0`, the MikroTik MCP will allow you to manage multiple MikroTik devices within your fleet structure. The following video simply shows how to use the inventory of MikroTik devices to let LLMs talk with your MikroTik devices.

## Contributors ā¤ļø

MikroTik MCP is built by the people below. Thank you for every commit, issue,
review and idea.

<!-- hassankhurram is listed by request: the commit carries an org email, so the
     API still reports hassan-khurram-hsol. Keep this override on regeneration.
     pdostal and inistor are here for pull requests and issue reports rather
     than merged commits, so the contributors API does not return them either. -->

TDQS

C2.6/5.0

Scored across 196 tools

Disambiguation4/5

Most tools target distinct resource+action pairs with clear descriptions, but there are overlapping clusters: 10 log-related tools, legacy wireless tools (marked not supported in RouterOS v7) that duplicate newer wireless tools, and multiple route-adding variants. These create some risk of misselection, though the descriptions help distinguish them.

Naming Consistency4/5

Nearly all tools follow a consistent verb_noun pattern (e.g., list_dhcp_servers, create_dhcp_server, remove_dhcp_server). Minor inconsistency exists between add_ and create_ for adding objects (add_ip_address vs create_vlan_interface), and a few noun-phrase names like safe_mode_status, but the overall convention is strong.

Tool Count1/5

196 tools is an extreme mismatch for a single MCP server. Even for a complex router OS, this count is far beyond what an agent can manage effectively, and many operations could be consolidated or abstracted. The rubric threshold of 50+ tools places this at the lowest score.

Completeness3/5

The server covers many areas with reasonable CRUD, but notable gaps exist: no bridge configuration (bridge/ports/VLANs), no PPPoE server/client, no hotspot, no IP service management, and incomplete DHCP pool management (missing list/get/update/remove). These gaps will cause agent failures for common router setup tasks.
