Tapo

MCP serverAI & models

This integration connects your AI to your TP-Link Tapo smart home devices, so it can discover and control them for you. Once added, you can ask your AI to find your Tapo devices and operate them during a normal conversation. It is based on the open-source tapo project on GitHub.

Unavailable. This server has no hosted endpoint yet, so Ahel can't serve it.

Add to setup to save this item as a reference. Ahel cannot run it, and signing in will not install it.

What your AI can do with it

  • Discover your TP-Link Tapo smart home devices
  • Control your Tapo devices when you ask
  • Find and operate your smart home devices without leaving the conversation

Getting started

  1. Save this item in Your setup as a reference.
  2. Read the source or reference documentation for its setup requirements. Saving it here does not connect it to your AI.
  3. Check this page for availability before trying to install it through Ahel.
