Server Configuration

Describes the environment variables required to run the server.

NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
EOS_HOSTNoThe console IP address (e.g., from Nomad Shell; not always 127.0.0.1 when MCP runs on another machine).
EOS_PORT_RXNoUDP TX Port on the console (match this to the console's OSC UDP TX Port, typically 9001).
EOS_PORT_TXNoUDP RX Port on the console (match this to the console's OSC UDP RX Port, typically 8000).
EOS_PROTOCOLNoTransport protocol: udp (default) or tcp. Use tcp for real TCP OSC (ports 3032 or 3037).udp
EOS_ALLOW_LIVENoAllow live writes when the console is LIVE or state is unknown (default false).false
EOS_REQUIRE_CONFIRMNoRequire confirm=true for live-write tools (default true).true

Instructions

Guidance the server publishes about itself, which clients place ahead of the tool catalog so the model reads it before choosing anything.

This server publishes no instructions, or was last inspected before Glama recorded them.

Tools

Functions exposed to the LLM to take actions

NameDescription
eos_commandA

Send an Eos command-line instruction via OSC (/eos/cmd). Use for record, patch, copy, save, and any CLI-only operations.

eos_new_commandC

Clear the command line, then send an instruction via /eos/newcmd

eos_eventC

Send a console event via /eos/event (same syntax as eos_command)

channel_selectB

Select an Eos channel (leaves command line unterminated)

channel_set_levelC

Set a channel intensity (0-100)

channel_set_dmxB

Set a channel DMX level (0-255)

group_set_levelC

Set a group intensity (0-100)

at_set_levelA

Set level for the current OSC selection via /eos/at

cue_selectC

Select a cue, optionally within a cue list

cue_fireA

Fire a cue (does not follow GO sequencing unless using cue_go)

cue_goB

Press the console Go key (sequential cue advance)

key_pressA

Press an Eos hardkey by OSC name (e.g. 'go', 'clear', 'stop')

macro_fireB

Run a macro by number

submaster_set_levelC

Set a submaster level (0.0-1.0)

magic_sheet_openB

Open a magic sheet, optionally a specific view

get_console_stateA

Return cached console state (blind/live, user, connection)

get_active_cueA

Return the active cue text and completion percent from OSC cache

get_command_lineA

Return the current command line text from OSC cache

osc_resetC

Send /eos/reset to clear OSC switches and refresh implicit output

wait_for_oscB

Wait for an incoming OSC address pattern (timeout in ms)

Prompts

Interactive templates invoked by user choice

NameDescription
eos-operatorSystem guidance for safely controlling ETCnomad/Eos via MCP

Resources

Contextual data attached and managed by the client

NameDescription

TDQS

C2.9/5.0

Scored across 20 tools

Disambiguation2/5

Several tools overlap heavily: eos_command, eos_new_command, and eos_event are easily confused, especially since eos_event is described as using 'same syntax as eos_command.' Also, cue_fire, cue_go, and key_press all relate to the GO action, while channel_set_level and at_set_level both set intensity, creating boundary ambiguity.

Naming Consistency3/5

Naming is not chaotic and consistently uses snake_case, but conventions vary: object-first names like channel_set_level and cue_fire sit alongside verb-first names like get_console_state and wait_for_osc, with oddities like eos_command and eos_new_command that have no clear action verb. It is readable but not predictable.

Tool Count3/5

20 tools is on the heavy/borderline side. The Eos Nomad control domain is fairly broad and most tools target distinct console resources, but several overlapping command/event/Go tools could be consolidated, making the count feel higher than necessary.

Completeness4/5

The set covers core console workflows well: channels, groups, cues, submasters, macros, command-line entry, key presses, and state read-back. The generic eos_command tool helps fill CLI-only gaps, though there are minor missing read-back operations such as querying submaster or channel levels directly.
