EdgeAI MCP

🌟 What is Industrial MCP?

Industrial MCP is an open-source project that implements the Model Context Protocol (MCP) for industrial environments. It allows any AI model (Claude, GPT, Mistral, Llama, etc.) to read data from and control industrial equipment through a standardized interface.

Think of it as USB-C for Industrial AI — one universal connector for all your machines.

The Problem We Solve

❌ Traditional Approach:
   AI Model ←→ Custom API 1 ←→ Machine 1 (Modbus)
   AI Model ←→ Custom API 2 ←→ Machine 2 (OPC UA)  
   AI Model ←→ Custom API 3 ←→ Machine 3 (MQTT)
   = N×M integration nightmare 😱

✅ With Industrial MCP:
   AI Model ←→ MCP Protocol ←→ Industrial MCP Server ←→ Any Machine
   = One standard interface for everything 🎉

✨ Features

🚀 Quick Start

Installation

# Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/YOUR_USERNAME/industrial-mcp.git
cd industrial-mcp

# Create virtual environment
python -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate  # On Windows: venv\Scripts\activate

# Install dependencies
pip install -e .

Basic Usage

from industrial_mcp import MCPServer, ModbusAdapter

# Create MCP server
server = MCPServer(name="my-factory")

# Connect to a Modbus device (e.g., a pump)
pump = ModbusAdapter(
    host="192.168.1.100",
    port=502,
    device_name="pump-01"
)

# Register the device
server.register_device(pump)

# Define tools that AI can use
@server.tool("get_pump_status")
async def get_pump_status():
    """Get the current status of the main pump"""
    temp = await pump.read_register(address=100)
    vibration = await pump.read_register(address=101)
    return {
        "temperature": temp,
        "vibration": vibration,
        "status": "normal" if vibration < 50 else "warning"
    }

# Start the MCP server
server.run(host="0.0.0.0", port=8080)

Connect with Claude Desktop

Add to your Claude Desktop config (claude_desktop_config.json):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "industrial": {
      "command": "python",
      "args": ["-m", "industrial_mcp", "--config", "config.yaml"]
    }
  }
}

Now you can ask Claude:

"What's the temperature of pump-01?"
"Is the vibration level normal?"
"Show me the status of all connected devices."
