This page summarizes how AI can assist on creating solutions using the MCP for Designer tools
AI Integration → MCP for Designer In Action | AI MCP for Designer Connector
The AI MCP for Designer is very comprehensive and powerful.
One way to learn what it can is just ask the AI:
Give a summary on what you can do with FrameworX, i mean what YOU Claude can do to assist creating applications?
Great question! Here's what I can do to help you create FrameworX applications:
Solution Management
Create new solutions from templates or blank projects
Open existing solutions to work on them
Get solution statistics to understand project composition
Configuration & Object Creation
I can create and configure objects across all modules:
Tags (UnsTags) — real-time variables with different data types
Alarms — alarm groups and items with conditions and priorities
Devices — communication channels, nodes, and points for connecting to PLCs and equipment
Historian — tag logging configuration for historical data
Displays — Canvas and Dashboard screens with controls, gauges, charts, and symbols
Scripts — automation tasks and custom logic
Datasets — database queries and data management
Reports — report definitions
Security — users, roles, and permissions
Communication Protocols
I can configure connections to industrial equipment using protocols like:
Modbus TCP/RTU, OPC UA, MQTT, Siemens S7, Allen-Bradley, BACnet, and many more
Design Assistance
Search documentation for guidance on features
Get example solutions with real JSON configurations to learn from
Validate configurations before creating objects
Navigate the Designer to show you specific modules or objects
Start/stop runtime and apply hot updates
Practical Workflow
You can describe what you need in natural language — for example:
"Create 10 tank level tags with high/low alarms"
"Set up Modbus TCP communication to a PLC at 192.168.1.100"
"Build a dashboard with gauges showing pump status"
I'll handle the schema lookups, JSON generation, validation, and object creation for you.
