mcp-server-cFS by dsi012 - MCP Server

cFS MCP Server

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for NASA's Core Flight System (cFS), enabling AI agents to interact with spacecraft flight software systems.

World's first AI-cFS integration system - Designed for astronauts to use natural language to control spacecraft systems.

Features

Native cFS Integration - Direct communication through cFS software bus
Safety-First Design - Multi-layer security with emergency stop
Real-time Operations - Microsecond-level response times
Cross-platform - Linux/Unix support
8 MCP Tools - System monitoring, commands, files, emergency procedures

Quick Start

1. Test with Simulation (No cFS Required)

# Test on Linux/Unix
python test_cfs_mcp.py

2. With Full cFS System

# Build and integrate
cd cFS
# Add 'mcp_interface' to cpu1_APPLIST in cfe/cmake/sample_defs/targets.cmake
make prep && make && make install

# Run
./build/exe/cpu1/core-cpu1
python mcp_server.py
