What is the CarMaker MCP Server?

CarMaker is an MCP integration. Drive IPG CarMaker for Simulink: run test runs, read results, edit vehicle data and parameters.

Packages and local setup

The published pypi package is carmaker-mcp, version 0.2.0. Its declared MCP transport is stdio.

The package declares CM_PROJECT (required): CarMaker project folder. All writes are confined to it.; CM_MODEL: Simulink model that cm_session_start opens (name on the MATLAB path, or a file).; CM_MATLAB_SESSION: Name under which MATLAB shares its engine.; CM_POPUP_TIMEOUT: Seconds after which CarMaker GUI pop-ups answer themselves with their default choice. Not set: they wait for a click.; CM_ENABLE: Optional tools, comma separated: tcl (raw Tcl in the GUI), experimental (Simulink structure edits).; CM_DISABLE: Tool groups to switch off, comma separated: standalone, study, matlab..

This package has launch arguments in its registry record. Use the maintainer’s configuration for those arguments rather than launching it with only the package name.

Before connecting

Check the maintainer’s instructions for account access, authentication and the supported client configuration. Once connected, inspect the tools your client receives and try a small task that matches the server’s stated purpose. The registry description does not include a verified, complete tool list.
