# ABAQUS MCP Server for GUI Scripting

An MCP (Model Context Protocol) server designed to interact with an **already running** Abaqus/CAE Graphical User Interface (GUI). It allows for the execution of Python scripts within the Abaqus environment and retrieval of messages from the Abaqus message log/area, all through MCP tools.

This server uses GUI automation techniques (`pywinauto`) to control the Abaqus/CAE application.

## Features

- **Script Execution in GUI**: Executes Python scripts by automating the "File -> Run Script..." menu in an active Abaqus/CAE session.
- **Message Log Retrieval**: Attempts to scrape text content from the Abaqus/CAE message/log display area.
- **MCP Interface**: Exposes functionalities as standard MCP tools and prompts for easy integration with LLM agents and other MCP-compatible clients.
- **Operates on Existing GUI**: Does not start or stop Abaqus/CAE; it requires an Abaqus/CAE session to be already open and running.

## System Requirements

-   **Operating System**: Windows (due to `pywinauto` and Abaqus GUI interaction).
-   **Python**: Python 3.7+.
-   **Abaqus/CAE**: A compatible version of Abaqus/CAE must be installed and **already running with its GUI open** when using this server.

## Python Dependencies

Install the required Python packages using pip:

```bash
pip install -r requirements.txt
```

(See `requirements.txt` for the list of dependencies, primarily `mcp[cli]`, `pywinauto`, `pygetwindow`, `psutil`, `pywin32`.)

## Configuration

1.  **Ensure Abaqus/CAE is Running**: Before starting this MCP server, make sure the Abaqus/CAE application is open on your desktop, with the GUI loaded and responsive.
2.  **Accessibility**: Ensure no other modal dialogs are blocking the Abaqus/CAE interface when the server attempts to interact with it.

## Usage

### Starting the MCP Server

Navigate to the server's directory and run:

```bash
python mcp_server.py
```

The server will start and be ready to a…
