ignition-mcp (community)
Unofficial Ignition 8.3 module with a fixed tool list for tags, projects, alarms, and gated writes.
Who it's for
An engineer attaching an MCP client to no field protocol. Treat the write policy as the safety boundary: a gated write is still a write once you arm it.
Caveat / limitations
Not from Inductive Automation. README for 0.4.0 describes 42 tools: tag browse and read, Perspective inspection, gateway status, named queries, alarms, and preview/apply for a limited set of resource changes. It tells you to start read-only. GitHub reported no license file on 2026-11-03, so public source is not an open-source grant. Read the repo before you install the module on a gateway.
Protocols
No field protocol or IEC language is claimed. If this tool reaches a PLC, it does so through something else already named in the notes.
