Bring AI coding agents into TwinCAT engineering

Use Claude, GitHub Copilot and other coding agents to interact with existing Beckhoff TwinCAT projects through a structured engineering interface.

[REASONING] FB_MotorControl requires an updated Interlock signal.
[SUGGESTION] Add 'bSafetyOK' to the transition logic in line 42.
[OK] Ready to generate updated Structured Text.

Generic AI tools do not understand TwinCAT projects

Standard LLMs lack context for industrial automation structures. They struggle with POUs, Function Blocks, and the specific syntax of Structured Text within a Beckhoff environment.

A structured bridge between coding agents and TwinCAT

Our MCP server translates complex TwinCAT 3 project files into a semantic structure that modern AI agents can comprehend and safely manipulate.

Quick Start

Install the plugin, then select the twincat agent.
