TagoIO MCP - AI-Powered IoT Data Integration
The TagoIO MCP Server bridges AI-powered development tools with your TagoIO IoT platform, enabling intelligent workflows that understand and interact with your real device data, configurations, and platform resources.
What is Model Context Protocol?
Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open standard that connects AI assistants to external data sources and tools. When integrated with TagoIO, it allows AI models in your development environment to directly access your IoT data, analyze patterns, generate code, and provide context-aware assistance based on your actual platform configuration.
This integration transforms how developers build and debug IoT applications by bringing live data context directly into their AI-assisted development workflow.
Core Capabilities
Device Management & Data Access
The MCP server provides comprehensive access to your TagoIO environment:
- Query device configurations, metadata, and real-time sensor readings
- Access historical data from both Devices and Entities
- Retrieve user information, actions, and analysis scripts
- Generate statistical reports with aggregations, trends, and custom analytics
Intelligent Development Support
Beyond data access, the integration enhances your development workflow:
- Context-Aware Code Generation: AI generates TagoIO Analysis scripts with knowledge of your actual device structure and data formats
- Smart Debugging: Identify tag relationships, data dependencies, and configuration issues
- Automated Documentation: Generate reports and documentation based on your platform's current state
Platform Integration
The TagoIO MCP Server works seamlessly with popular AI platforms and development environments:
- AI Platforms: Claude Desktop, ChatGPT, and other MCP-compatible assistants
- Development IDEs: Cursor, Windsurf, VS Code with AI extensions
Installation & Setup
Real-World Use Case
For IoT Application Developers
Rapid Prototyping
Generate boilerplate code for new Analysis scripts with proper error handling and TagoIO-specific patterns:
"Create an Analysis script that monitors temperature sensors and sends SMS alerts when readings exceed thresholds"
Data Pipeline Debugging
Trace data flow issues across devices and scripts:
"Show me all devices with tag value TEST sending data to the 'temperature' variable in the last hour and identify any gaps"
Performance Optimization
Analyze resource usage and optimize data retention strategies:
"Which devices are consuming the most data transactions this month?"
Tag Monitoring
Identify devices with data transmission issues:
"List all devices that haven't sent data in the last 24 hours"
User Management
Track platform access and new user activity:
"Show me all users created in the past week"
For Data Analysts
Trend Analysis
Perform complex queries across multiple data sources:
"Compare energy consumption patterns between weekdays and weekends for all smart meters"
Anomaly Detection
Identify unusual patterns in sensor data:
"Find all temperature spikes that deviate more than 2 standard deviations from the weekly average"
