Abaqus GUI Scripting

About

Abaqus GUI Scripting provides an MCP interface for interacting with an existing Abaqus/CAE Graphical User Interface (GUI). By automating the 'File -> Run Script...' menu, it allows for the execution of Python scripts within the Abaqus environment. Additionally, it retrieves messages from the Abaqus message log/area, offering a streamlined way to control and monitor Abaqus simulations through MCP tools.

Key Features

• Exposes functionalities as standard MCP tools and prompts.
• 37 GitHub stars
• Operates on an already running Abaqus/CAE instance without starting or stopping it.
• Retrieves text content from the Abaqus/CAE message log area.
• Executes Python scripts in a running Abaqus/CAE GUI.
• Uses GUI automation techniques (`pywinauto`) for Abaqus/CAE application control.

Use Cases

• Monitoring the progress and output of Abaqus simulations remotely.
• Automating repetitive tasks within the Abaqus/CAE environment.
• Integrating Abaqus simulations with LLM agents for automated analysis.
