### Description (declared)

# Device Scanner MCP

An MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that detects WiFi, Ethernet, and USB devices — and lets you SSH into them, deploy files, run tests, and manage services, all through Claude Code.

**Works with any company/product** — all config lives in `.env`.

## Features

- **23 tools** covering scanning, SSH, SCP, deployment, testing, health checks, logs, services, and more
- **WiFi-hop**: auto-switches WiFi to a device (no internet), runs commands, switches back
- **Ethernet/USB**: direct SSH — no hopping needed
- **Multi-device**: run commands across multiple devices in one call
- **GTest parser**: structured pass/fail results from test binaries
- **Zero hardcoded secrets** — everything in `.env`

## Quick Install

### For Claude Code users

```bash
claude mcp add device-scanner -- uvx device-scanner-mcp
```

Or with pip:

```bash
pip install device-scanner-mcp
claude mcp add device-scanner -- python -m device_scanner_mcp
```

### Setup

1. Create a `.env` file in your working directory (copy from `.env.example`):

```env
COMPANY_NAME=MyCompany
OFFICE_SSIDS=Office-WiFi,Guest-WiFi
DEVICE_PREFIXES=MYDEVICE_,SENSOR_
DEVICE_MYDEVICE=192.168.4.1,192.168.5.1,,root,password
DEVICE_ALIASES=Robot:MYDEVICE
```

2. Run Claude Code and start using the tools.
