Overview

AI-generated overview

Hosted, read-only MCP server that lets an assistant read Sensorist gateways, sensor measurements and alarm history from your account.

What you can do
  • Read account and user details, including the full user hierarchy
  • List gateways with their sensors and data source ids
  • Fetch measurements for one gateway: latest, min/max, climate days, grouped ranges or raw pages
  • List alarms and their current state with recent log entries
  • Read alarm history, as time-ordered entries, in/out pairs or combined with system notifications
  • Check monthly tool-call usage, request a feature, or manage a Pro subscription
When to use it
Useful when you want to ask natural-language questions about your own Sensorist sensor network, such as which sensors exceeded a temperature threshold, the latest humidity per gateway, or when a cellar alarm triggered this month.
Requirements
Remote endpoint only, no local install; connect with the MCP URL. Sign-in is via OAuth, and the login page asks for the e-mail address and password of your Sensorist account (the one used at my.sensorist.com), which the server validates and stores per user. No API key or Authorization header goes in the client config. Free plan allows 50 tool calls per month.
Before you install
You hand your Sensorist account e-mail and password to the hosted service, which stores them per user, so trust in the operator matters. The data tools are read-only, but meta tools can start a paid Stripe subscription (Pro or Pro+), cancel it, or send a feature request; cancellation runs to the end of the paid period with no refund for the current period. Usage is metered, so heavy use hits the free limit or the Pro fair-use cap.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open Sensorist MCP by usefulapi in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
  2. Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.

Web executable via Streamable HTTP. Remote servers run from the web runtime once configured in a workspace.

Use with an agent

Paste this prompt into Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or another agent — or into SourceWeft chat. The agent reads this server's install guide, shows you its publisher, endpoint and sign-in, and adds it to your client once you agree. Keys never go into a command.

Read https://sourceweft.com/mcp/io.usefulapi%2Fsensorist/install.md and connect the MCP server it describes to my client. Before changing any config, show me its publisher, endpoint and sign-in method and wait for my OK. Never put an API key in a command or in a file I would commit; ask me where it should come from.

Read the install guide the agent follows

README

Sensorist MCP by usefulapi

Use your Sensorist account from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP client. Read gateways, sensor measurements and alarm history, read-only. Hosted, no local install: connect with your own credentials.

Live endpoint: https://sensorist.usefulapi.io/mcp · Homepage: https://usefulapi.io

Connect

  • Claude (claude.ai, Desktop): open Customize → Connectors, click + Add → Add custom connector, and paste https://sensorist.usefulapi.io/mcp.
  • Claude Code: claude mcp add --transport http sensorist https://sensorist.usefulapi.io/mcp, then run /mcp to log in.
  • VS Code: Add to VS Code.
  • Cursor and other clients: add the URL as a remote MCP server:
json
{  "mcpServers": {    "sensorist": {      "url": "https://sensorist.usefulapi.io/mcp"    }  }}

Add only the URL. Do not add an Authorization header or an API key to the client config: the server signs you in with OAuth, and the login page asks for your Sensorist credentials.

Step-by-step setup, where to find your credentials, and FAQ: https://usefulapi.io/sensorist/

On first connect you provide the e-mail address and password of your Sensorist login (the one you use at my.sensorist.com). The server validates it and stores it per user. No keys go in config files.
