XMI MCP Server

An MCP (Model Context Protocol) server for querying SysML XMI exports. This server parses the MTConnect SysML model and provides tools for exploring packages, classes, enumerations, and documentation.

Installation

npm install npm run build

Loading into Claude Code on Windows

  1. Open your Claude Code settings file at:

    %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json

    Or create it if it doesn't exist.

  2. Add the MCP server configuration:

    { "mcpServers": { "xmimcp": { "command": "node", "args": ["C:\\source\\vibes\\xmimcp\\dist\\index.js"] } } }
  3. Restart Claude Code for the changes to take effect.

Option 2: Using a Custom XMI File Path

If your XMI file is in a different location, set the XMI_FILE_PATH environment variable:

{ "mcpServers": { "xmimcp": { "command": "node", "args": ["C:\\source\\vibes\\xmimcp\\dist\\index.js"], "env": { "XMI_FILE_PATH": "C:\\path\\to\\your\\model.xml" } } } }

Option 3: Project-Specific Configuration

Create a .mcp.json file in your project root:

{ "mcpServers": { "xmimcp": { "command": "node", "args": ["C:\\source\\vibes\\xmimcp\\dist\\index.js"] } } }

Verifying the Server is Loaded

After restarting Claude Code, you can verify the server is loaded by asking Claude to use one of the tools, such as:

  • "Get model statistics from the XMI server"

  • "List all packages in the SysML model"

Troubleshooting

Server not loading

  1. Ensure Node.js is installed and in your PATH

  2. Verify the paths in the configuration use double backslashes (\\) on Windows

  3. Check that npm run build completed successfully

XMI file not found

  1. Verify the XMI file exists at the expected path

  2. Use the XMI_FILE_PATH environment variable to specify a custom location

Tools not appearing

  1. Restart Claude Code after updating the configuration

  2. Check the Claude Code logs for any error messages
