Tekla MCP Server v0.2.0

This release expands the MCP toolset for real-world model interrogation where the assistant needs coordinates, attribute discovery, and connection-type analytics.

Early development note: APIs and schemas may still evolve between 0.x releases.

What's new since v0.1.1

  • Added tekla_find_attributes_by_value to discover candidate field names by a known value (for example, find where BK1 is stored)
  • Added tekla_analyze_profile_connections to estimate unique connection/node types for a profile (beam-end proximity heuristic)
  • Extended object filters with generic attribute predicates:
    • attributeName
    • attributeEquals
    • attributeContains
  • Extended object payloads with coordinate/geometry context:
    • center (CenterX/Y/Z)
    • linear endpoints (StartX/Y/Z, EndX/Y/Z)
    • bounding box (MinX/Y/Z, MaxX/Y/Z)
  • Mock backend now includes deterministic geometry and sample UDAs such as RU_FN1_MRK=BK1 on columns for reproducible testing

Practical scenarios now supported

  • “Find all columns where base mark is BK1 even if I do not know the attribute name”
  • “Show coordinates / center point for selected members”
  • “Count unique connection types for profile 20P”

Downloads

Asset Use case
TeklaMcp.Server-0.2.0-net48-win-x64.zip Production — Windows + Tekla Structures with an open model
TeklaMcp.Server-0.2.0-net8.0-mock.zip Development / testing without Tekla

Requirements

Windows + Tekla (net48):

  • Windows x64
  • Tekla Structures 2023+ (validated workflow)
  • Tekla running with a model open
  • .NET Framework 4.8 runtime

Mock backend (net8.0):

MCP client configuration

Extract the zip, then point your MCP client to the executable:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "tekla": {
      "command": "C:\\path\\to\\TeklaMcp.Server.exe"
    }
  }
}

Keep the .exe and all .dll files in the same directory.

Tools included

tekla_get_connection_info, tekla_get_model_summary, tekla_list_objects, tekla_find_objects, tekla_get_object_by_guid, tekla_get_selected_objects, tekla_find_attributes_by_value, tekla_analyze_by_material, tekla_count_objects, tekla_sum_weight, tekla_group_weight_by, tekla_list_distinct_values, tekla_analyze_profile_connections, tekla_select_objects, tekla_get_object_udas, tekla_set_object_udas, tekla_set_udas_by_filter

Known limitations

  • Connection analysis is a geometric heuristic (proximity to beam ends), not a strict Tekla connection object graph
  • Coverage is still strongest for parts/beams/plates; broader object families remain roadmap items
  • Automated tests are still limited
