Verified Safeby aplaceforallmystuff
Overview
MCP server for local network device discovery, security scanning, and inventory management, with support for Obsidian export.
Installation
npx mcp-homescanEnvironment Variables
- HOMESCAN_SUBNET
- SHODAN_API_KEY
Security Notes
The server executes local shell commands (`arp`, `ping`) for network scanning. While inputs to these commands are constructed internally and from environment variables, direct command execution carries inherent risks. There are no indications of `eval` usage, obfuscation, or hardcoded sensitive secrets. The project explicitly states no external data is sent unless the optional Shodan API key is configured. Key security considerations include ensuring a trusted execution environment and proper configuration of the `HOMESCAN_SUBNET` environment variable.
