COMSOL MCP

中文说明

This repository contains an MCP server for controlling an already-open COMSOL Desktop GUI through the COMSOL Java Shell.

This is an unofficial educational project. It is intended for learning, tutorials, and local automation experiments, not as a COMSOL-supported integration.

The server is designed for GUI-visible edits: Codex pastes COMSOL Java API commands into the Java Shell of the currently open COMSOL Desktop model, then executes them with Ctrl+Enter.

Scope

This repository currently publishes only the GUI Java Shell MCP implementation.

COMSOL can also be controlled through the Python mph package in a background workflow, but that implementation is not included here. If you need the background route, keep it as a separate project with its own source ownership and license review.

Requirements

• Windows
• COMSOL Desktop 6.3 or newer
• COMSOL Desktop and the target model already open
• Java Shell visible

Automatic ribbon clicking is disabled by default because localized COMSOL ribbon automation can trigger COMSOL UI errors.

Setup

.\setup_venv.ps1

Optional local settings:

Copy-Item .\env.local.example .\env.local

Run

.\start_server.ps1

Codex global config should point mcp_servers.comsol_gui to:

• E:\AgentCOMSOL\AgentCOMSOL-main\comsol-gui-mcp\.venv\Scripts\python.exe
• E:\AgentCOMSOL\AgentCOMSOL-main\comsol-gui-mcp\server.py

MCP Tools

• gui_status() lists COMSOL GUI processes/windows and whether Java Shell is visible.
• ensure_java_shell() finds Java Shell and returns a manual action if it is not visible.
• execute_java_shell(code, allow_non_model_code=false, timeout_sec=30) pastes commands and executes them with Ctrl+Enter.
• set_global_parameter(name, value, description=null) sets a global parameter through Java Shell.
• get_java_shell_output() tries to read visible Java Shell text through UI Automation.

Safe Command Policy

By default, execute_java_shell only accepts non-empty executable lines that start with model.. Use allow_non_model_code=true only when you intentionally need broader Java Shell commands.

First Validation

1. Open COMSOL Desktop and a test model.
2. Open Home > Windows > Java Shell.
3. Call gui_status().
4. Call set_global_parameter("codex_gui_mcp_probe", "1").
5. Confirm the parameter appears in the GUI.
6. Clean up with execute_java_shell("model.param().remove(\"codex_gui_mcp_probe\");").
