opcua-mcp

OPC UA MCP Server

An MCP server that connects to OPC UA-enabled industrial systems, allowing AI agents to monitor, analyze, and control operational data in real time.

This project is ideal for developers and engineers looking to bridge AI-driven workflows with industrial automation systems.

Features

• Read OPC UA Nodes: Retrieve real-time values from industrial devices.
• Write to OPC UA Nodes: Control devices by writing values to specified nodes.
• Seamless Integration: Works with MCP clients like Claude Desktop for natural language interaction.

Tools

The server exposes two tools:

• read_opcua_node:
  • Description: Read the value of a specific OPC UA node.
  • Parameters:
    • node_id (str): OPC UA node ID (e.g., ns=2;i=2).
  • Returns: A string with the node ID and its value (e.g., "Node ns=2;i=2 value: 42").
• write_opcua_node:
  • Description: Write a value to a specific OPC UA node.
  • Parameters:
    • node_id (str): OPC UA node ID (e.g., ns=2;i=3).
    • value (str): Value to write (converted based on node type).
  • Returns: A success or error message (e.g., "Successfully wrote 100 to node ns=2;i=3").

Example Prompts

• "What’s the value of node ns=2;i=2?" → Returns the current value.
• "Set node ns=2;i=3 to 100." → Writes 100 to the node.

Installation
