Your Home Assistant automations break silently — a renamed entity, a stale device ID — and you don't find out until weeks later. This tutorial covers connecting Home Assistant to an AI through an MCP server, so you can ask your house what's wrong and have it show you the fix. I walk through the full setup with both Claude and ChatGPT using the community HA-MCP integration, the four security risks nobody talks about, how to lock specific entities away from the AI entirely, and the scheduled agent I built that reads my logs every morning and proposes fixes before I've had coffee. The honest version: this isn't a self-healing smart home. It's an AI that detects, diagnoses, and proposes — and then waits for me to approve. That approval step is deliberate, and by the end you'll know exactly where to draw your own line. 📖 Full written guide with all the prompts: https://tsh.li/yt190post ⏱️ Timestamps: 0:00 - My House Fixed Its Own Broken Automation 1:30 - What "Self-Healing" Actually Means 2:46 - What an MCP Server Really Is 4:04 - The Two Home Assistant MCP Servers 5:12 - Risk 1: It Acts, It Doesn't Just Answer 5:37 - Risk 2: Prompt Injection 6:05 - Risk 3: Attack Surface 6:35 - Risk 4: Opening a Door to Your Network 7:32 - Installing HA-MCP Through HACS 9:56 - Getting Your Connect URL Safely 11:51 - Connecting Claude 13:09 - Scoping Claude's Tools (Read-Only vs Write) 15:43 - Connecting ChatGPT 18:00 - Locking Down Entities in HA-MCP 20:24 - The "no MCP" Label Workflow 21:38 - Restarting and Verifying the Block 22:41 - Building an Automation With Claude 25:18 - When the AI Catches Its Own Mistake 27:31 - Meet Alfred, My Scheduled AI Agent 28:58 - Connecting an Agent to Home Assistant 33:08 - The Daily Self-Healing Cron Job 34:30 - The Safety Rules That Actually Matter 36:49 - Would I Give an AI the Keys? 37:41 - The Cloud Problem 38:36 - Where to Start (Read-Only) 🔗 USEFUL LINKS: Full blog post with all prompts: https://tsh.li/yt190post HA-MCP (community server): https://github.com/homeassistant-ai/ha-mcp HA-MCP HACS repository: https://github.com/homeassistant-ai/ha-mcp-integration HA-MCP docs and setup wizard: https://homeassistant-ai.github.io/ha-mcp/ Home Assistant official MCP Server: https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/mcp_server Nabu Casa: https://nabucasa.com Hermes Agent: https://hermes-agent.nousresearch.com How to set up HACS: https://youtu.be/FDqZ1DxOigE 🏠 New to Home Assistant?
