Google is rolling out early access to a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for Google Home, enabling AI agents such as Claude and ChatGPT to control smart home devices via natural language. The integration also allows agents to review camera summaries and access smart home activity logs.
Background
Google introduced the MCP protocol to standardize how AI assistants interact with external systems and devices. This expansion into Google Home marks a significant step in integrating smart home control with third-party AI agents.
