Meraki MCP Server DONOTTRUST
This Model Context Protocol (MCP) server enables interaction with the Meraki Dashboard API for LLMs, allowing for seamless integration of Meraki network management capabilities within an AI assistant’s conversational interface.
Warning
Do not use if your organization prohibits you or you do not feel comfortable sending data to an AI assistant. This tool will send sensitive information such as serial numbers, hostnames, MAC addresses, and other information obtained through Meraki Dashboard APIs.
Environment
- node v23.7.0
- npm v10.9.2
- Meraki Dashboard API key
- Claude Desktop App
Building the MCP
- Clone this repository:
git clone [email protected]:yujiterada/mcp-server-meraki-donottrust.git
cd mcp-server-meraki-donottrust
- Install dependencies:
npm install
- Set up environment variables:
cp .env.sample .env
-
Edit the
.env
file:- Set your
MERAKI_DASHBOARD_API_KEY
from your Meraki Dashboard - Configure API endpoint scopes by setting the following variables to
true
orfalse
:ADMINISTERED_API_ENABLED
APPLIANCE_API_ENABLED
CAMERA_API_ENABLED
CAMPUS_GATEWAY_API_ENABLED
CELLULAR_GATEWAY_API_ENABLED
DEVICES_API_ENABLED
INSIGHT_API_ENABLED
LICENSING_API_ENABLED
NETWORKS_API_ENABLED
ORGANIZATIONS_API_ENABLED
SECURE_CONNECT_API_ENABLED
SENSOR_API_ENABLED
SM_API_ENABLED
SWITCH_API_ENABLED
WIRELESS_API_ENABLED
WIRELESS_CONTROLLER_API_ENABLED
Note: It’s recommended to enable only the API endpoint scopes you need, as enabling all scopes might exceed Claude’s context limits. Chat length is vrey limited on free version of Claude and therefore, the user will need to enable/disable spefici API endpoints from Claude app.

Future Development
The following improvements are planned for future development:
-
TypeScript Integration
- Add TypeScript interfaces for all API responses
- Implement Zod schemas for runtime type validation
- Improve type safety across the codebase
-
Dynamic API Scope
- Explore implementing Meraki Dashboard API scopes as Tools
- Allow users to select which APIs to use directly from Claude’s interface
- Eliminate the need for .env file modifications and rebuilds
-
Security Enhancements
- Implement encryption for sensitive information
- Add secure decoding mechanisms within the MCP
- Enhance API key management and security
