A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that provides access to your TeslaMate database, allowing AI assistants to query Tesla vehicle data and analytics.
This MCP server connects to your TeslaMate PostgreSQL database and exposes various tools to retrieve Tesla vehicle information, driving statistics, charging data, battery health, efficiency metrics, and location analytics. It's designed to work with MCP-compatible AI assistants like Claude Desktop, enabling natural language queries about your Tesla data.
- TeslaMate running with a PostgreSQL database
- Python 3.11 or higher
- Access to your TeslaMate database
-
Clone this repository:
git clone https://github.com/yourusername/teslamate-mcp.git cd teslamate-mcp
-
Install dependencies using uv (recommended):
uv sync
Or using pip:
pip install -r requirements.txt
-
Create a
.env
file in the project root:DATABASE_URL=postgresql://username:password@hostname:port/teslamate
For remote deployment using Docker. Quick start:
# Clone and navigate to the repository
git clone https://github.com/yourusername/teslamate-mcp.git
cd teslamate-mcp
# Run the deployment script
./deploy.sh deploy
# Or manually:
cp env.example .env
# Edit .env with your database credentials
docker-compose up -d
The remote server will be available at:
- Streamable HTTP:
https://localhost:8888/mcp
To secure your remote MCP server with bearer token authentication:
-
Set a bearer token in your
.env
file:AUTH_TOKEN=your-secret-bearer-token-here
Generate a secure token:
# Use the provided token generator python3 generate_token.py # Or generate manually with openssl openssl rand -base64 32 # Or use any other method to create a secure random string
-
When connecting from MCP clients, include the Authorization header:
{ "mcpServers": { "teslamate-remote": { "url": "https://your-server:8888/mcp", "transport": "streamable_http", "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer your-secret-bearer-token-here" } } } }
-
Or use curl for testing:
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer your-secret-bearer-token-here" \ https://localhost:8888/mcp
- Use HTTPS in production: Bearer tokens are sent in plain text. Always use HTTPS/TLS in production environments.
- Strong tokens: Use long, random tokens (at least 32 characters).
- Environment variables: Never commit tokens to version control. Use environment variables or secrets management.
- Network security: Consider using a VPN or restricting access by IP address for additional security.
- Token rotation: Regularly rotate your bearer tokens.
The MCP server provides 20 tools for querying your TeslaMate data:
get_basic_car_information
- Basic vehicle details (VIN, model, name, color, etc.)get_current_car_status
- Current state, location, battery level, and temperatureget_software_update_history
- Timeline of software updatesget_battery_health_summary
- Battery degradation and health metricsget_battery_degradation_over_time
- Historical battery capacity trendsget_daily_battery_usage_patterns
- Daily battery consumption patternsget_tire_pressure_weekly_trends
- Tire pressure history and trendsget_monthly_driving_summary
- Monthly distance, efficiency, and driving timeget_daily_driving_patterns
- Daily driving habits and patternsget_longest_drives_by_distance
- Top drives by distance with detailsget_total_distance_and_efficiency
- Overall driving statisticsget_drive_summary_per_day
- Daily drive summariesget_efficiency_by_month_and_temperature
- Efficiency analysis by temperatureget_average_efficiency_by_temperature
- Temperature impact on efficiencyget_unusual_power_consumption
- Anomalous power usage detectionget_charging_by_location
- Charging statistics by locationget_all_charging_sessions_summary
- Complete charging history summaryget_most_visited_locations
- Frequently visited places
get_database_schema
- Returns complete database schema (tables, columns, data types)run_sql
- Execute custom SELECT queries with safety validation- Only SELECT statements allowed
- Prevents DROP, CREATE, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, ALTER, etc.
- Blocks multiple statement execution
- Safely handles strings and comments
DATABASE_URL
: PostgreSQL connection string for your TeslaMate database
To use this server with Claude Desktop, add the following to your MCP configuration file:
macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json
{
"mcpServers": {
"teslamate": {
"command": "uv",
"args": ["run", "python", "/path/to/teslamate-mcp/main.py"],
"env": {
"DATABASE_URL": "postgresql://username:password@hostname:port/teslamate"
}
}
}
}
For connecting to a remote server:
{
"mcpServers": {
"TeslaMate": {
"command": "npx",
"args": [
"-y",
"mcp-remote",
"https://your-private-server:8888/mcp",
"--allow-http"
]
}
}
}
With authentication enabled:
{
"mcpServers": {
"TeslaMate": {
"command": "npx",
"args": [
"-y",
"mcp-remote",
"https://your-private-server:8888/mcp",
"--allow-http",
"--header",
"Authorization:${AUTH_HEADER}"
],
"env": {
"AUTH_HEADER": "Bearer <secret bearer token>"
}
}
}
}
uv run python main.py
Once configured with an MCP client, you can ask natural language questions organized by category:
- "What's my Tesla's basic information?"
- "Show me my current car status"
- "What software updates has my Tesla received?"
- "How is my battery health?"
- "Show me battery degradation over time"
- "What are my daily battery usage patterns?"
- "How are my tire pressures trending?"
- "Show me my monthly driving summary"
- "What are my daily driving patterns?"
- "What are my longest drives by distance?"
- "What's my total distance driven and efficiency?"
- "How does temperature affect my efficiency?"
- "Show me efficiency trends by month and temperature"
- "Are there any unusual power consumption patterns?"
- "Where do I charge most frequently?"
- "Show me all my charging sessions summary"
- "What are my most visited locations?"
- "Show me the database schema"
- "Run a SQL query to find drives longer than 100km"
- "Query the average charging power by location"
- "Find all charging sessions at superchargers"
Note: The run_sql
tool only allows SELECT queries. All data modification operations (INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, DROP, etc.) are strictly forbidden for safety.
- Create a new SQL file in the
queries/
directory - Add a corresponding tool function in
main.py
- Follow the existing pattern for error handling and database connections
