Configuration

​
API Key

To use the Omi MCP server, you need an API key. You can generate one in the Omi app under Settings > Developer > MCP. The API key can be provided with each tool call. If not provided, the server will use the OMI_API_KEY environment variable as a fallback.

​
Usage with Claude Desktop

Add this to your claude_desktop_config.json: Install docker, https://orbstack.dev/ is great. Replace your_api_key_here with the key you generated in the Omi app. 
"mcpServers": {
  "omi": {
    "command": "docker",
    "args": ["run", "--rm", "-i", "-e", "OMI_API_KEY=your_api_key_here", "omiai/mcp-server"]
  }
}

Debugging

You can use the MCP inspector to debug the server. For uvx installations: 
npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector uvx mcp-server-omi
Or if you’ve installed the package in a specific directory or are developing on it: 
cd path/to/servers/src/omi
npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector uv run mcp-server-omi
Running tail -n 20 -f ~/Library/Logs/Claude/mcp-server-omi.log will show the logs from the server and may help you debug any issues.

​
Custom Backend URL

If you are self-hosting the Omi backend, you can specify the API endpoint by setting the OMI_API_BASE_URL environment variable. 
export OMI_API_BASE_URL="https://your-backend-url.com"
