Sonos MCP Server
This project is a Sonos MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that allows you to control and interact with Sonos devices on your network. It provides various functionalities such as discovering devices, controlling playback, retrieving device states, and managing queues.
Features
- Discover Sonos devices on the network
- Retrieve and control playback state for devices
- Manage playback queues
- Expose functionalities as MCP tools
Requirements
- Python 3.7+
- uv for managing Python projects
Installation
1. Clone the repository:
git clone https://github.com/WinstonFassett/sonos-mcp-server.git
cd sonos-mcp-server
2. Install the required dependencies using uv:
uv sync
Usage
Running the Server
Stdio
Run the server using stdio:
uv run mcp run server.py
SSE with Supergateway
Run the server with SSE using the supergateway tool:
npx -y supergateway --port 8000 --stdio "uv run mcp run server.py"
Alternatively, you can use the convenience script provided in the repository:
./npx-serve-sse-8000.sh
Development
To run the server in "development" mode with the MCP Inspector:
uv run mcp dev server.py
This command hosts an MCP Inspector for testing and debugging purposes.
To run the server with SSE in development mode, use the SSE command for supergateway, and in a second terminal windor run:
npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector
