Available components
How this component scores in each security and reliability category. Every signal is checked automatically against the live server, and we only credit what we can confirm. How we score → Why this is hard to score →
Endpoint Security60
- The endpoint's TLS certificate is valid, in date, and uses a strong key. View diagnostics → Pass
- Authorisation not fully verified: no authorisation is required to call this server, and 12 tool(s) never declared a destructiveHint. The MCP spec treats an absent hint as destructive by default, so we cannot call this surface safe. See how to fix → View diagnostics → Unverified
- HTTPS is enforced; there's no plaintext access path. View diagnostics → Pass
- HSTS check failed: the Strict-Transport-Security header is absent. See how to fix → View diagnostics → Fail
- DNSSEC is configured correctly; the domain's records validate against the full chain to the root. View diagnostics → Pass
Transport & Reachability100
- Verified streamable-http transport via a live MCP handshake. View diagnostics → Pass
Schema Quality & AI Usability85
- AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).Pass
- Tool/resource definitions use about 987 tokens (~82/item across 12 items; 12 tools + 0 resources), lean.Pass
- Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples. See how to fix → Fail
Stability & Change Management80
- Stability observed for 24 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.Partial
Tool Coverage100
- 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).Pass
- 100% of tool parameters carry a description.Pass
Tool Safety100
- No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.Pass
- We read all 12 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.Pass
- An AI judge read all 12 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.Pass
Capabilities100
- Implements a supported MCP spec version (2025-11-25); the latest is 2026-07-28.Pass
How do I install the OPC UA Modeler MCP server?
OPC UA Modeler is a hosted endpoint at https://api.opcua-modeler.sterfive.io/api/mcp, so there is nothing to install locally. Ready-made configuration for Claude, Cursor, VS Code, Codex and 5 more is on this page, copied from each client's own documentation.

The tools this component advertises to a client, with an estimated token cost for each. Expand a tool to see its parameters and schema. The per-tool counts are indicative and are not scored directly; the schema's total context footprint is one signal in Schema Quality & AI Usability. A tool's description is untrusted text the model reads on every call, which is what makes this list a security surface and not just an inventory: how tool poisoning works →
find_engineering_unit Find an engineering unit ~73
Find the official UNECE Rec. 20 engineering unit symbol for a given description. ALWAYS call this before using any engineering unit — NEVER guess unit symbols.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| query | string | yes | Description or common name of the unit (e.g. "revolutions per minute", "celsius", "pressure bar") |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
find_reusable_block Find a reusable interface or AddIn ~137
Find reusable Interfaces / AddIns by capability — pass a member name or keyword (e.g. "SerialNumber", "DeviceHealth", "Location") and get the standard blocks that already expose it. PREFER applying/composing an existing block over redefining its members inline. Interfaces are applied with `interfaces:`; addins (types with a DefaultInstanceBrowseName) are composed with `addIns:`. A single property → use the Interface; a whole named sub-object → use the AddIn.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| query | string | yes | Member name or capability keyword (e.g. "SerialNumber", "health", "calibration") |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
get_dsl_reference Get the DSL grammar reference ~58

opcua_model_generate Generate NodeSet2 XML ~104
Generate OPC UA NodeSet2.xml and Symbols.CSV from a YAML model. Requires an API key (set OPCUA_MODELER_API_KEY env var). Returns base64-encoded artifacts if the model is valid, or diagnostics if validation fails. Optionally set include_docs=true to also generate markdown documentation.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| include_docs | boolean | – | Set to true to include markdown documentation (slower) |
| yaml | string | yes | The full YAML model source to generate from |
No output schema declared.

opcua_model_reverse Reverse-engineer NodeSet2 XML ~122
Reverse-engineer a NodeSet2.xml file back into the YAML DSL format. Requires an API key (set OPCUA_MODELER_API_KEY env var). Optionally specify the target namespace URI to extract.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| namespace_uri | string | – | Target namespace URI to extract (auto-detected if omitted) |
| self_contained | boolean | – | Return one self-contained .opcua.yaml stream: the model, its NodeId symbol table and dependency declarations (default: bare YAML) |
| xml | string | yes | The NodeSet2.xml content to reverse-engineer |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
opcua_model_validate Validate an OPC UA model ~69

|---|---|---|---|
| aliases | array | yes | Companion spec aliases to resolve (e.g. ["machineTool", "robotics"]) |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
search_types Search types across specs ~60
Search for types across ALL companion specs by keyword. Use this when you don't know which namespace defines a type. Returns matching types with their namespace alias.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| query | string | yes | Search keyword (e.g. "identification", "temperature", "motion") |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
What is the OPC UA Modeler MCP server?
OPC UA Modeler is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as io.github.node-opcua/node-opcua-modeler-mcp-server. OPC UA companion spec types, namespace dependencies, and engineering units for AI agents. This page covers its hosted endpoint (https://api.opcua-modeler.sterfive.io/api/mcp).
