MCP Server for GenieACS written in Go
Documentation
GenieACS-MCP
A tiny bridge that exposes any GenieACS instance as an MCP v1 (JSON-RPC for LLMs) server written in Go.
✨ What you get
| Type | What for | MCP URI / Tool id |
|---|---|---|
| Resources | Consume GenieACS data read-only | `genieacs://device/{id}``genieacs://file/{name}``genieacs://tasks/{id}``genieacs://devices/list``genieacs://presets/list``genieacs://provisions/list``genieacs://faults/{id}` |
| Tools | Invoke actions on a CPE through GenieACS | `reboot_device``download_firmware``refresh_parameter``set_parameter``get_parameter``manage_preset``manage_provision``search_devices``tag_device``connection_request``delete_task``retry_task` |
Everything is exposed over a single JSON-RPC endpoint (`/mcp`).
LLMs / Agents can: `initialize → readResource → listTools → callTool` … and so on.
🚀 Quick-start (Docker Compose)
Follow instructions from https://github.com/GeiserX/genieacs-container, it is included in the docker compose file there.
📦 Install via npm (stdio transport)
npx genieacs-mcpOr install globally:
npm install -g genieacs-mcp
genieacs-mcpThis downloads the pre-built Go binary for your platform and runs it with stdio transport, compatible with any MCP client.
🛠 Local build
git clone https://github.com/GeiserX/genieacs-mcp
cd genieacs-mcp
# (optional) create .env from the sample
cp .env.example .env && $EDITOR .env
go run ./cmd/server🔧 Configuration
| Variable | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `ACS_URL` | http://localhost:7557 | GenieACS NBI endpoint (without trailing /) |
| `ACS_USER` | _(empty)_ | GenieACS NBI basic-auth username |
| `ACS_PASS` | _(empty)_ | GenieACS NBI basic-auth password |
| `TRANSPORT` | _(empty = HTTP)_ | Set to `stdio` for stdio transport |
| `DEVICE_LIMIT` | 500 | Max devices returned by `genieacs://devices/list` |
| `MCP_LISTEN_ADDR` | 127.0.0.1:8080 | HTTP listen address (only used when TRANSPORT is not stdio) |
| `MCP_AUTH_TOKEN` | _(empty)_ | Bearer token for HTTP transport auth. Required when `MCP_LISTEN_ADDR` is non-loopback |
| `MCP_ALLOWED_HOSTS` | _(empty)_ | Comma-separated extra `Host` header values to accept (e.g. a reverse-proxy domain). Loopback names on the listen port are always allowed |
| `MCP_ALLOWED_ORIGINS` | _(empty)_ | Comma-separated extra browser `Origin` values to accept (e.g. `https://my-ai-app.com`) |
> Security — HTTP transport. The HTTP transport validates the `Host` and
> `Origin` headers on every request to prevent DNS rebinding
> from a malicious web page reaching a local listener. Requests with an
> untrusted `Host`, or a present-but-untrusted `Origin`, are rejected with
> `403`. Loopback access works with no configuration; if you expose the server
> through a reverse proxy or a hostname, add that name to `MCP_ALLOWED_HOSTS`
> (and `MCP_ALLOWED_ORIGINS` for browser clients). The `stdio` transport is
> unaffected and remains the recommended mode for local MCP clients.
Put them in a `.env` file (from `.env.example`) or set them in the environment.
Testing
Tested with Inspector and it is currently fully working. Before making a PR, make sure this MCP server behaves well via this medium.
Lacks Testing with actual MCP clients (client LLMs), so please, submit your PRs to improve descriptions in case it fails to adequately match the services offered by this MCP server.
Example configuration for client LLMs:

"description_for_model": "Interact with a GenieACS TR-069 Auto-Configuration-Server (ACS) that manages CPE devices (routers, ONTs, gateways). First call initialize, then reuse the returned session id in header \"Mcp-Session-Id\" for every other call. Use readResource to fetch URIs that begin with genieacs:// (devices, presets, provisions, faults). Use listTools to discover available actions (parameter read/write, presets, provisions, tags, search, task management) and callTool to execute them.",
