Overview

What is Govee MCP Server?

An MCP server for controlling Govee LED devices through the Govee API. It provides both an MCP tool interface for clients like Cline and a standalone command‑line interface for direct control.

How to use Govee MCP Server?

Set up three environment variables (GOVEE_API_KEY, GOVEE_DEVICE_ID, GOVEE_SKU) in a .env file. Install via Smithery (npx -y @smithery/cli install @mathd/govee_mcp_server) or manually with pip install .. Then use the MCP server’s tools (turn_on_off, set_color, set_brightness) or the CLI commands (govee-cli power, govee-cli color, govee-cli brightness).

Key features of Govee MCP Server

  • Turn Govee LEDs on or off via MCP tool or CLI
  • Set LED color using RGB values (0–255)
  • Set LED brightness level (0–100)
  • Works with MCP clients such as Cline and Claude Desktop
  • Installable automatically via Smithery or manually with pip
  • CLI provides direct terminal control without an MCP client

Use cases of Govee MCP Server

  • Control Govee smart lights from an MCP‑aware AI assistant like Claude Desktop
  • Script light changes (power, color, brightness) from the command line
  • Integrate Govee lighting into automated workflows or home‑automation pipelines
  • Test or debug Govee device interactions using the CLI with real API calls
