About

Enables AI assistants to interact with the aedifion cloud platform for building performance optimization and IoT data management. It provides over 95 tools for monitoring timeseries data, managing project components, and executing building analytics or controls.

README

CI License: MIT Python 3.10+

An MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that provides tools for interacting with the aedifion cloud API. This server enables AI assistants to:

Query building IoT data and timeseries
Run and manage analytics functions and KPIs
Configure alerts and controls
Manage projects, components, and datapoints
Access weather data for building locations

API documentation: https://api.cloud.aedifion.eu/ui/

Installation

Using `uv` (recommended)

uv pip install git+https://github.com/bbruhn91/mcp-server-aedifion.git

Using `pip`

pip install git+https://github.com/bbruhn91/mcp-server-aedifion.git

From source

git clone https://github.com/bbruhn91/mcp-server-aedifion.git
cd mcp-server-aedifion
uv pip install -e .

Configuration

Environment variables

The server requires aedifion API credentials. Create a .env file in your working directory (see .env.example):

cp .env.example .env
# Edit .env with your credentials

Variable	Required	Default	Description
`AEDIFION_USERNAME`	Yes*	—	Your aedifion account email
`AEDIFION_PASSWORD`	Yes*	—	Your aedifion account password
`AEDIFION_TOKEN`	No	—	Pre-obtained bearer token (alternative to username/password)
`AEDIFION_BASE_URL`	No	`https://api.cloud.aedifion.eu`	API base URL

* Required unless AEDIFION_TOKEN is set.

Claude Desktop

Add the server to your Claude Desktop configuration (claude_desktop_config.json):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "aedifion": {
      "command": "mcp-server-aedifion",
      "env": {

Usage examples

Check API connectivity

"Ping the aedifion API to check if it's available."

Browse projects and data

"Show me all projects in my company."

"List all datapoints in project 42 that contain 'temperature' in their name."

Query timeseries data

"Get the temperature readings for datapoint 'bacnet500-4120-External-Air-Temperature' in project 42 from the last 24 hours, resampled to 15-minute intervals."

Analytics

"What analysis functions are available? Show me the KPI overview for project 42."

"Get the energy efficiency analysis for project 42 for the last month."

Alerts

"Create a threshold alert on the room temperature datapoint in project 42 that warns at 26C and goes critical at 30C."

Building controls

"List all active controls instances in project 42 and show their current status."

Weather

"What's the current weather at the building location for project 42?"

Authentication

The server supports two authentication methods:

Username/Password (recommended): Set AEDIFION_USERNAME and AEDIFION_PASSWORD. The server automatically obtains and refreshes bearer tokens via POST /v2/user/token.
Pre-obtained token: Set AEDIFION_TOKEN with a valid bearer token. Useful for short-lived sessions or when credentials shouldn't be stored.

Token refresh happens automatically when a 401 Unauthorized response is received.

Error handling

The server wraps all API errors into clean, structured error messages. Instead of raw HTTP exceptions or tracebacks, tools return human-readable error descriptions including:

The HTTP status code
The API error message
The endpoint that failed

This makes it easy for AI assistants to understand and communicate errors to users.

Development

Setup

git clone https://github.com/bbruhn91/mcp-server-aedifion.git
cd mcp-server-aedifion
python3 -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate
pip install -e ".[dev]"

Running locally

# With environment variables
[email protected] AEDIFION_PASSWORD=pass mcp-server-aedifion

# Or with a .env file
cp .env.example .env
# Edit .env with your credentials
mcp-server-aedifion

Testing

pytest -v

Architecture

src/mcp_server_aedifion/
  __init__.py       # Package init
  client.py         # HTTP client with auth handling and structured errors
  server.py         # MCP server with tool definitions and error handling

  test_client.py    # Client unit tests (auth, requests, errors)
  test_server.py    # Server tests (tool registration, error handling)

client.py — Async HTTP client built on httpx. Handles Basic Auth -> bearer token exchange, automatic token refresh on 401, and raises structured AedifionError exceptions with status codes and API error details.
server.py — MCP server built with FastMCP. Registers 95+ tools covering all 12 API categories. Each tool is wrapped with error handling that converts exceptions into clean error messages.
