Wafer Map MCP Server

An MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that exposes semiconductor wafer analysis tools to AI assistants such as Claude Desktop.

Given a wafer test data file (CSV or ZIP), it renders:

• Yield summary statistics

• Binary pass/fail wafer map

• Continuous-value PIN property heatmaps

• Normal probability plots (P-charts) per wafer

All tools are accessible via a single HTTP endpoint, so any MCP-compatible client can use them.

Tools

Data Format

CSV or ZIP (containing exactly one CSV) with columns:

BIN, X, Y, WAFER_ID, PIN_1, PIN_2, ..., PIN_N

• BIN = 0 → pass, otherwise fail

• X, Y → die coordinates on the wafer grid

• PIN_* → continuous measurement values

Colour Scale (IQR Robust Sigma)

Property maps and P-chart boundaries use IQR-based bounds to make subtle variations visible:

sigma  = (P75 - P25) / 1.35
IQR_L  = P50 - 6 × sigma
IQR_H  = P50 + 6 × sigma

Quick Start

Option A: Docker (recommended)

docker build -t wafer-mcp .
docker run -p 8001:8001 wafer-mcp

The server is now available at http://localhost:8001/mcp.

To analyze your own data files, mount a volume:

docker run -p 8001:8001 -v /absolute/path/to/data:/data wafer-mcp
# then pass file_path="/data/your_wafer.zip" when calling tools

Option B: Local Python

Requirements: Python 3.10+

pip install -r requirements.txt
python server.py

Sample Data

A sample dataset is bundled with the project at sample_data/sample_1.zip.

Quick smoke test (Docker):

# inside the container the sample lives at /app/sample_data/sample_1.zip
# call any tool with this file_path to verify everything works

Claude Desktop Configuration

The server uses Streamable HTTP transport, so use the url form in claude_desktop_config.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "wafer-map": {
      "url": "http://localhost:8001/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Steps:

1. Start the MCP server (local or Docker)

2. Add the config above to Claude Desktop

3. Restart Claude Desktop

4. Ask Claude to analyze a wafer data file — it will automatically pick the right tool

Tool Parameters

run_wafer_analysis

get_wafer_info
