Tools

Functions exposed to the LLM to take actions

NameDescription
pingA

Health check — verify the server is running.

get_tagsA

Get tags from an Ignition project, optionally filtered by folder path.

Args: project_path: Path to Ignition project directory or .zip export. tag_path: Optional folder path to filter (e.g. "Conveyors/Line1"). provider: Tag provider name (default: "default"). Use list_tag_providers to discover.

list_tag_providersA

List all tag provider names in an Ignition project (e.g. 'default', 'edge').

Args: project_path: Path to Ignition project directory or .zip export.

list_viewsA

List all Perspective view paths in an Ignition project.

Args: project_path: Path to Ignition project directory or .zip export.

get_viewA

Get a Perspective view's component tree, bindings, and structure.

Args: project_path: Path to Ignition project directory or .zip export. view_path: View path (e.g. "Overview" or "Screens/MotorDetail").

list_scriptsA

List all scripts in an Ignition project with their scope.

Args: project_path: Path to Ignition project directory or .zip export.

get_scriptA

Get the source code of an Ignition project script.

Args: project_path: Path to Ignition project directory or .zip export. script_path: Script resource path (from list_scripts output).

list_udtsB

List all UDT (User Defined Type) names in an Ignition project.

Args: project_path: Path to Ignition project directory or .zip export.

get_udtB

Get UDT definition(s) with member details.

Args: project_path: Path to Ignition project directory or .zip export. udt_name: Optional UDT name. If empty, returns all UDTs.

list_alarmsB

List all alarm pipeline names in an Ignition project.

Args: project_path: Path to Ignition project directory or .zip export.

get_alarmA

Get an alarm pipeline's configuration including stages, notifications, and transitions.

Args: project_path: Path to Ignition project directory or .zip export. pipeline_name: Alarm pipeline name (from list_alarms output).

list_named_queriesA

List all named query names in an Ignition project.

Args: project_path: Path to Ignition project directory or .zip export.

get_named_queryA

Get a named query's SQL, parameters, database connection, and type.

Args: project_path: Path to Ignition project directory or .zip export. query_name: Named query name (from list_named_queries output).

read_tagA

Read the current value of one or more tags from a live Ignition gateway.

Requires the server to be started with --gateway-url pointing to an Ignition gateway with the WebDev module installed.

Args: tag_path: Tag path(s), comma-separated for multiple (e.g. "[default]Conveyors/Line1/Speed").

write_tagA

Write a value to a tag on a live Ignition gateway.

Requires the server to be started with --gateway-url. The value is sent as-is; the gateway handles type coercion.

Args: tag_path: Full tag path (e.g. "[default]Conveyors/Line1/Speed"). value: Value to write (string representation — gateway coerces to tag data type).

execute_scriptA

Execute a Python script on the Ignition gateway and return the result.

Requires the server to be started with --gateway-url. The script runs in gateway scope with access to system.* functions.

Args: code: Python code to execute on the gateway.

get_historyA

Query historical tag data from a live Ignition gateway.

Requires the server to be started with --gateway-url and a historian configured on the gateway.

Args: tag_path: Full tag path (e.g. "[default]Conveyors/Line1/Speed"). start: Start time as ISO 8601 (e.g. "2026-04-12T00:00:00Z"). end: End time as ISO 8601 (e.g. "2026-04-12T12:00:00Z").
