Ignition MCP

An MCP server for Inductive Automation Ignition that provides AI assistants with structured access to an Ignition gateway. It allows users to browse and write tags, query history and alarms, manage projects, and deploy full Perspective views. The server operates via a REST plane for configuration and a bridge plane for live data, with writes gated behind explicit opt-in.
