AVEVA Process Simulation MCP servers and AI agent skills

How AI connects to AVEVA Process Simulation

An MCP server or skill can only do what AVEVA Process Simulation lets programs do. AVEVA Process Simulation exposes 2 automation interfaces:

• Built-in Python scripting (Python): AVEVA describes Process Simulation as having built-in Python scripting for writing open models and integrating new technology, and it can apply externally trained machine-learning models. APS-Agent reaches the simulator through the simcentralconnect package from the AVEVA SDK, which it tells you to install separately and test with a one-line import. The SDK reference isn't on AVEVA's public docs site; it comes with the product. Documentation
• AVEVA Integration Service SimulationClient (C#) (.NET): AVEVA's Integration Service Data API SDK includes a SimulationClient class that talks to simulation products, and its documentation says it supports both SimCentral and PRO/II simulations. It is the public, documented route for a C# integration that needs to exchange data with simulation cases rather than drive the modelling interface. Documentation

What AVEVA offers

At AVEVA World in May 2026, AVEVA said it would bring MCP integrations and AI server and client management to its on-premises and cloud systems, in the context of its data infrastructure and operations products. The announcement doesn't mention Process Simulation, and AVEVA hasn't released an MCP server for it as of this check.

What you can do with AVEVA Process Simulation and AI

• Connect to a local AVEVA Process Simulation installation from Claude Desktop or Cursor and create a new simulation from a natural-language request.
• Set up a simple flowsheet from a description of the units and streams, following the research group's paper on LLM agents for process simulation.
• Run the server over SSE or streamable HTTP on a port, so a web-based MCP client can reach it.
• Use the published paper and demo to judge how far an agent can go with APS before you build your own integration.
• Check that the SDK's Python components are reachable with the README's one-line import test before an agent session, which is the first thing to fail on a new machine.

Installing

The listings here document setup for Claude Desktop and Cursor. Install steps, copied from each project's own documentation, are on each listing's page. Most AVEVA Process Simulation integrations run on your own computer next to AVEVA Process Simulation, so you need AVEVA Process Simulation installed and licensed on the same machine unless the listing says otherwise.
