Tesla Control FAQs

Question 1

What is Tesla Control?

Accepted Answer

Tesla Control is an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server designed to facilitate real-time control and monitoring of your Tesla vehicle. It leverages the Tessie API to provide data and execute commands, making it ideal for developer tools and AI agent integrations.

Question 2

What are the prerequisites to start using Tesla Control?

Accepted Answer

To get started, you'll need a Tessie account with an access token, your Tesla vehicle's VIN, and Bun installed for local development. For Cloudflare Worker deployments, you'll also need a Cloudflare account.

Question 3

What environments can I deploy or run Tesla Control in?

Accepted Answer

Tesla Control supports dual runtime environments. You can run it as a standard Node.js/Bun server for local development and workflows, or deploy it as a Cloudflare Worker for efficient, remote, and scalable interactions.

Question 4

What kind of features does Tesla Control offer?

Accepted Answer

It provides real-time vehicle state monitoring (battery, range, location, climate, doors, charging) and enables execution of commands like locking/unlocking, climate control, opening trunks, enabling Sentry Mode, flashing lights, honking, and sharing navigation destinations.

Question 5

How does Tesla Control handle security and authentication?

Accepted Answer

Tesla Control uses a secure two-tiered authentication system. Clients authenticate with a generated bearer token, while the server internally uses your Tessie API key, stored as a secret. This ensures your Tessie credentials are never exposed to clients.
