v2.0.0 — Fork of eliasbitsch/abb-robotstudio-mcp with TcpListener transport, 55 MCP tools, AutoLoad, and security hardening.
Model Context Protocol server for ABB RobotStudio and ABB robot controllers.
Exposes 55 tools across two transports:
Tested: ABB RobotStudio 2025 + IRB 4600 Virtual Controller (IRC5).
| Feature | Original | LiskinLabs v2.0.0 |
|---|---|---|
| HTTP Transport | HttpListener — needs netsh http add urlacl (admin) | `TcpListener` — zero admin rights |
| Tools | 50 | 55 (+5 new) |
| Add-In startup | Manual "Load Add-In" each session | AutoLoad |
| Screenshot | ❌ | ✅ rs_get_screenshot |
| Event Log (SDK) | ❌ | ✅ rs_get_execution_errors |
| Variable listing | ❌ | ✅ rs_list_variables (type/module filter) |
| Bounding Box | ❌ | ✅ rs_get_station_objects?bbox=true |
| IO Signals (SDK) | Stubs → "not implemented" | ✅ Real API |
| RAPID upload | Raw UTF-8 | ✅ BOM-free + CRLF |
| Simulation reset | Stop only | ✅ Stop + PP reset |
| Request timeout | None | ✅ 15-30s AbortController |
| Path validation | N/A | ✅ Screenshot sandboxed |
| CORS | N/A | ✅ Removed (not a browser API) |
| Tool | Description |
|---|---|
rs_get_screenshot | Capture 3D view → base64 PNG (width/height params) |
rs_get_execution_errors | Controller event log via SDK (count param) |
rs_list_variables | RAPID variables with type/module filters |
rs_get_station_objects | Now supports bbox=true for position + dimensions |
