Can I use Needle with any LLM client?

Needle operates as an MCP server, exposing its functionalities via a standardized protocol. It can be integrated with any compliant MCP client, such as Claude Code, which then interfaces with various LLMs.

Is Needle easy to deploy?

Yes, Needle offers self-contained OTP release builds that bundle the Erlang runtime. This enables easy, dependency-free deployment across platforms by simply copying the release directory.

What kind of operations can I perform with Needle?

You can query building data, read histories, manage Axon functions, validate Xeto specifications, and perform comprehensive CRUD operations across your SkySpark projects through 24 standardized MCP tools.

Needle is an MCP server that integrates Large Language Models (LLMs) with SkySpark, the building analytics platform built on Project Haystack, allowing natural language interaction with building data.

How does Needle connect to SkySpark?

Needle connects to your SkySpark server via its API endpoint, using secure SCRAM-SHA-256 authentication. It supports Haystack Grid parsing for robust data exchange.
