Environment variables
  • UNIFI_API_KEYrequiredsecretUniFi Site Manager API key with Network scope (unifi.ui.com, Settings > API). It controls your whole network: treat it like an admin password.
  • UNIFI_CONFIRM_WRITESWrite confirmation: destructive tools return a preview and run only when called again with confirm "YES". Only false, 0, no or off turn it off.
  • UNIFI_API_BASEAPI base URL; this host receives the API key. https origin only (http only for loopback test stubs). Keep the default.
  • UNIFI_TIMEOUT_MSPer-request timeout in milliseconds, covering response headers and body.
  • UNIFI_LOG_LEVELLog level on stderr: debug, info, warn or error.
  • UNIFI_READ_ONLYRead-only mode: every write tool returns an error and sends no request; reads still work. Off by default.
  • UNIFI_REDACT_SECRETSMasks passwords, WiFi passphrases, pre-shared keys and other secret fields in every tool result with (redacted); write tools refuse a body that contains that placeholder. Off by default.
  • UNIFI_MAX_RESULT_BYTESCuts tool results longer than this many bytes and marks them as truncated. Unset or empty: 100000. 0, off or none: no cap.

A starting point — check the repository for exact arguments and setup. Restart your client after editing the config.

Nice for visibility, but GitHub marks README links nofollow, so it doesn't pass authority. Use the HTML badge on your site as well.
