Comprehensive Model Context Protocol server for managing Home Assistant through AI assistants.
Ranch.Bot is installed from its publisher's own source and answers where it runs, so this marketplace is not in the path of a single call. There is no address here to send one to, and a panel that pretended otherwise would be showing you an answer we made up. Install it and call it from your own client — the Installation tab has the entry for each one.
What it does
Local stdio MCP server for cattle and sheep records. Needs Node.js 22+, a Ranch.Bot account with farm access, and browser login. No API key is used, but authentication is required. Setup: https://ranch.bot/docs/mcp-setup
Quickstart
Run once first — the server needs this before it answers:
npx -y @ranchbot/mcp-server login# 1 — add it to Claude Code
claude mcp add --scope user ranch-mcp '--' npx -y @ranchbot/mcp-server
# 2 — ask your agent for something these tools do
# farm_archive, list_my_farms, get_farm and 40 more
Ranch.Bot costs nothing on mcprush: there is no plan to choose here, no cap to set and nothing mcprush can bill you for.
Where are you running it?
Every route below installs the same thing and ends at the same approval screen. This one runs on your machine: your client starts Ranch.Bot as a process under your own user, with your files and your network, so the tool surface below is what it can do to your computer rather than to a server somewhere else. Its scan result is on the Security tab — read the surface before you approve it.
This is a public server: you run it yourself and this marketplace is not in the path. You need Node.js — the current LTS (24) is the safe choice; npx comes with it. Run once first: npx -y @ranchbot/mcp-server login. Claude Code registers it in one command; --scope user makes it available in every project. The '--' is in quotes so that PowerShell passes it on.
claude mcp add --scope user ranch-mcp '--' npx -y @ranchbot/mcp-serverReconnect, or start a new session, and the tools appear in the model’s tool list.
One config entry your client uses to start the process locally. A local server runs with your file system and your network, which is why it is priced without metering.
43 tools, with what each one reads, writes and reaches shown before you agree — the same list on every route above. Read the tool surface.
Tool surface
What the model actually sees. Descriptions are diffed on every release — see version history.
Farm archive operations. list and status are reads. create starts a new private archive job and needs approval. cancel stops a pending job and needs approval. download writes a new private ZIP at output_path on this MCP host (not the user's chat machine) and needs an approved…
| Parameter | Type | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| farm_id | string | no | — |
| operation | string | yes | — |
| export_id | string | no | — |
| output_path | string | no | — |
List all farms that the user has access to
No parameter schema on file.
Get details about a specific farm
| Parameter | Type | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| farm_id | string | yes | The ID of the farm to retrieve |
Change the saved default farm for later calls on this session. This changes context, not farm data; it is unnecessary when every scoped call passes farm_id explicitly, and it should be used only when the user asks.
No parameter schema on file.
Get the current context including default farm ID
No parameter schema on file.
Read-only exact EID lookup on one farm across inventory statuses. Never creates or changes animals. Missing matches return not found; multiple animals return an ambiguity error. Requires Reader access.
| Parameter | Type | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| farm_id | string | no | The ID of the farm (optional if default is set) |
| eid | string | yes | The EID to search for |
Find or create an animal by EID (Electronic ID). This is a write-capable lookup: if no match exists it creates an animal. Requires Editor access and explicit intent to create inventory. Use lookup_animal_by_eid for reads.
| Parameter | Type | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| farm_id | string | no | The ID of the farm (optional if default is set) |
| eid | string | yes | The EID to search for |
DEPRECATED: Find or create an animal by EID (Electronic ID). This is a write-capable lookup: if no match exists it creates an animal. Never call it for a read-only identifier lookup; use lookup_animal_by_eid instead. For intentional creation use find_or_create_animal_by_eid.
| Parameter | Type | Required | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| farm_id | string | no | The ID of the farm (optional if default is set) |

What counts against your monthly calls
| Tool | Unit | Calls used | Out of the allowance |
|---|
Nothing here is billable: mcprush charges nothing to install Ranch.Bot or to call it, at any volume.
Two independent axes, because powerful and malicious are different questions. The grade is threat only. The capability level is blast radius, and it is never a penalty on the grade — it is priced as one subtract-only term in the score, where you can see it.
| Term | Level | What it prices | Points |
|---|---|---|---|
| capability-exposure | minimal | capability blast radius (minimal) — client exposure if the model is manipulated | −0 |
| verification-discount | source | publisher verification (provenance) — cryptographic build provenance ties the artifact to its source | −0 |
| coverage-honesty | source | inspection depth (source) — how much of the target the scan could see | −0 |
What the scan could actually read
A grade is only as meaningful as its coverage, so the scanner publishes its own depth before it publishes its result.
No tools were enumerated, so prompt-injection, capability and toxic-flow analysis had no tool surface to inspect. To grade a package’s real runtime tools, scan the running server: --command "npx -y <package>".
Capability — what it could do if the model were manipulated
Tags derived from each tool’s schema and the implementation, not from what the tool calls itself. minimal is the level these add up to.
| Tool | Capability tags | Why the tag was assigned |
|---|---|---|
| No per-tool rows for this release — see the note below. | ||
Toxic-flow graph
The lethal trifecta, checked as a graph rather than as a checklist: untrusted input, a sensitive source and an external sink have to meet before there is a path worth worrying about.
The public result for this release does not print the flow graph, so there is nothing to show here. That is not the same as "no paths were found": what the scan did read is above, under coverage.
Supply chain and provenance
This is the first scan of this surface here, so there is nothing yet to compare it against.
Every result on this tab comes from one deterministic pass over the published package — offline, rule by rule, and auditable line by line above. Same methodology version, same bytes, same score.
Release history
Always latest — the install command names no version, so it installs the newest release when it runs; the current release on file is 0.1.6. Pin a release below and the command asks for exactly that one.

- The version this listing was on when mcprush began following its releases. The registry was not asked when it shipped, so this row carries no date.
One review per account, from a signed-in account that does not publish this listing. Nothing else is asked — you can say what you think before you install it. Publishers can reply once per review, and a review can be edited or deleted by whoever wrote it.
Any signed-in account that does not publish Ranch.Bot can review it, once — before installing it or after. A review from an account that has installed it is marked as one.
Nobody has reviewed this listing. The rating on the card is the mean of the reviews written here and nothing else, so there is no rating until somebody writes the first — which takes a signed-in account that does not publish it, and nothing else.
