At a glance

Type: MCP server
Works with: DIALux evo
How it connects: Drives a running copy of the tool
Access: Can modify models
Tool versions: DIALux evo 5.13.0.9593 with a Spanish (es-ES) interface
Operating systems: Windows
Needs a DIALux evo licence: No
Transport: Local (stdio)

Licence: Not stated in its documentation
Language: Python

What it can do

Launches DIALux, opens a .dlx project, starts a calculation and waits for it to finish.
Exports reports as PDF, DOCX, XML or CSV, captures the view and normalises a results CSV.
Lays out luminaires with the lumen method and writes an STF file DIALux can import.

Limitations

DIALux has no official API, so the server clicks through the interface with pywinauto; the author says the UI selectors still need tuning.
STF imports geometry and reflectances only, not photometry or calculated luminaires.
No licence file in the repository; the README is in Spanish.
