CAE-Agent-Hub
CAE Agent Hub is a comprehensive collection of MCP servers, reusable agent skills, and automation workflows for engineering simulation and computer-aided engineering (CAE). The hub provides MCP servers that connect AI coding clients like Claude Desktop, Cursor, and Claude Code to installed CAE applications including Abaqus, ANSYS Fluent, ANSYS Workbench, HFSS, Altair HyperWorks, LAMMPS, OVITO, CalculiX, FreeCAD, Elmer FEM, and ParaView. Each MCP server enables live control of simulation software through Python bridges, allowing AI agents to create models, run analyses, monitor jobs, and extract results instead of generating only offline example code.
Key Features
Use Cases
- 01Enable AI coding assistants to drive Abaqus for structural finite element analysis, from model creation through job submission to ODB result extraction
- 02Connect Claude Desktop to ANSYS Fluent for computational fluid dynamics workflows with live PyFluent sessions and journal execution
- 03Use AI agents to control ANSYS Workbench and Mechanical through ACT bridge for multi-physics simulations and LS-DYNA integration
- 04Automate HFSS antenna and electromagnetic design in Ansys Electronics Desktop via MCP-driven Python scripting
- 05Run molecular dynamics simulations with LAMMPS and visualize atomistic trajectories using OVITO through agent-controlled workflows
- 06Perform FEM analysis with open-source CalculiX including modal analysis, stress optimization, and design variable parametric studies

CAE-Agent-Hub — FAQ
What is CAE Agent Hub?+
CAE Agent Hub is a collection of MCP servers and reusable agent skills that connect AI coding clients to installed computer-aided engineering simulation software like Abaqus, ANSYS, Altair HyperWorks, LAMMPS, and CalculiX. It enables AI assistants to control live CAE applications and run real engineering analyses instead of producing only example code.
How do I install an MCP server from CAE Agent Hub?+
Navigate to the specific MCP folder (e.g., MCP/Abaqus or MCP/CalculiX), create a Python virtual environment, install the package with pip install -e ., then register the server with your MCP-capable client using the example configuration in that MCP's README. Each MCP has its own installation instructions and environment template.
Which AI clients work with CAE Agent Hub?+
The hub is designed for MCP-capable clients including Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, and Codex. Each MCP server implements the Model Context Protocol, making it compatible with any client supporting that standard.
Do I need CAE software licenses to use these MCP servers?+
Yes. Installing an MCP server does not install the underlying commercial CAE software or provide solver licenses. You must have the required CAE application (Abaqus, ANSYS, HyperWorks, etc.), valid licenses, and proper local environment configured separately where applicable.
Is CAE Agent Hub free and open source?+
Yes, CAE Agent Hub is released under the MIT License and freely available on GitHub. However, the commercial CAE applications it connects to (Abaqus, ANSYS, Altair products) require separate licenses from their respective vendors.
How do I use the agent skills included in the hub?+
Copy the complete skill directory into your agent's skill directory or attach the SKILL.md file as project context. For example, copy Skill/abaqus/analysis/abaqus-static-analysis to ~/.codex/skills/abaqus-static-analysis, then reference it in your prompt to guide the AI through complete simulation workflows.
How do I install CAE-Agent-Hub?+
Open the source repository on GitHub and follow its README. CAE-Agent-Hub is a mcp server — MCP Agents Market links you directly to the official repo.
Is CAE-Agent-Hub free?+
CAE-Agent-Hub is an open-source project hosted on GitHub. Check the repository for its license and any usage requirements.
