Description

T-IA Connect MCP Server
Category: Engineering / Industrial Automation

Description:
T-IA Connect is the first industrial-grade Model Context Protocol (MCP) bridge designed for the Siemens SIMATIC TIA Portal ecosystem (V17 to V21). It allows AI agents (Claude, Cursor, LobeChat) to programmatically interact with PLC and HMI projects via the Siemens Openness API.

MCP Server URL: Local/Stdio executable (See installation guide)

What makes it industrial-ready:

  • Safety First: Generates deterministic PLC logic (SCL) with strict validation against Siemens SimaticML schemas.
  • Full Orchestration: 120+ tools to explore project trees, manage blocks (FB, FC, OB, DB), and handle PLC tags.
  • Simulation Support: Native integration with PLCSim Advanced for automated code testing and verification.
  • Headless Operation: Works silently in the background without requiring the TIA Portal GUI to be open.
  • Sovereign AI Compatible: Designed to work with local or private LLM endpoints to keep industrial IP secure.

Quick Start (30 seconds):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "tia-connect": {
      "command": "C:\\Program Files\\T-IA Connect\\TiaPortalApi.App.exe",
      "args": ["--mcp"]
    }
  }
}
