TestStand MPC beta

[Cloedu72]

I’m planning to release a TestStand MCP in the next days. It is almost fully functional, so the main features are already working. Is anyone interested in becoming a beta tester?

Btw.: NI should be able to implement this using the TestStand source code within a few days. I had to implement it using API calls that aren’t particularly well documented!

How is this going to be different from NigelAI integration in TestStand?

[Cloedu72]

You can use it directly from the strongest AI tools available on the market (Anthropic Claude, GitHub Copilot ....). You can directly generate test sequences from flowcharts and so on... 🙂

[Cloedu72]

For example you can Generate from a Picture or PlantUML or whatever Flowchart Sequences:

You can also generate Flowcharts from Sequences:

My MCP is almost complete. I'm currently working on the implementation style guide...

Hi, looks cool. I would be interested in checking out what it can do 🙂

[Cloedu72]

I am currently preparing the code for an official release. I will share the link as soon as everything is ready.

I have released Beta_V0.0.2, which includes some minor changes. This version also features a Claude agent that helps with automatically linking sub-sequences when creating sequences from flowcharts.

=> Agent is not perfect, but guides you through the subsequence calls

=> Claude Agent is only included in the Source code!

I’m currently using the MCP for my own projects and everything is working as it should. Whenever I find something, I create a new release and optimise the code so that fewer tokens are used.

=> Tokens: the currency of the future!

I’ve created a new version with lots of improvements. As far as I can tell, everything is stable and the MCP and Sequence Agent are working together as intended.

If anyone is already testing it, please update; as far as I’m concerned, this version is a release candidate.
