Isaacsim MCP server

Read from the package source without running it. The installed server may list more.

• apply_material

  Bind a material to an object.

• capture_image

  Capture an RGB image from a camera sensor.

• clear_scenewrite action

  Remove all prims from the scene.

• clone_object

  Duplicate an existing object to a new prim path.

• create_action_graphwrite action

  Create and wire an OmniGraph Action Graph.

• create_camerawrite action

  Add a camera sensor to the scene.

• create_lidarwrite action

  Add a lidar sensor to the scene.

• create_lightwrite action

  Create a light in the scene.

• create_materialwrite action

  Create a PBR or physics material.

• create_objectwrite action

  Create a primitive object (Cube, Sphere, Cylinder, Cone, Capsule, Plane).

• create_physics_scenewrite action

  Create a physics scene with ground plane. Call get_scene_info first to verify connection.

• create_robotwrite action

  Create a robot in the scene from the Isaac Sim asset library.

• delete_objectwrite action

  Delete an object from the scene.

• edit_action_graph

  Edit an existing OmniGraph Action Graph: set attribute values or add connections.

• execute_scriptwrite action

  Escape hatch: execute arbitrary Python code in Isaac Sim.

• generate_3d

  Generate a 3D model from text or image using Beaver3D, then load it into the scene.

• get_isaac_logs

  Diagnostic tool: recent WARN/ERROR logs plus captured print() output.

• get_joint_config

  Diagnostic tool: get joint drive configuration for a robot articulation.

• get_joint_positions

  Read current joint positions from a robot.

• get_lidar_point_cloud

  Get point cloud data from a lidar sensor.

• get_physics_state

  Diagnostic tool: get physics state for a prim.

• get_prim_info

  Get detailed information about a specific prim.

• get_robot_info

  Get robot joint information including names, DOF count, joint types, and limits.

• get_scene_info

  Ping the Isaac Sim extension server and return scene information including stage path, assets root, and prim count.

• get_simulation_state

  Get the current simulation state: timeline status (playing/stopped/paused), simulation time, and physics dt. step_simulation does NOT require a running timeline — do not play just to step.

• import_urdf

  Import a robot from a URDF file into the scene.

• list_available_robots

  List all available robots discovered from the Isaac Sim asset server. Returns robot keys, descriptions, manufacturers, and asset paths. The list is auto-discovered at startup and reflects the actual assets available in your Isaac Sim version.

• list_environments

  List all available environments discovered from the Isaac Sim asset server. Includes warehouses, offices, outdoor scenes, and more.

• list_prims

  List the prims directly under root_path, optionally filtered by type.

• load_environment

  Load a pre-built environment into the scene. Supports fuzzy matching. Call list_environments first to see available options.

• load_usd

  Load a USD asset from a URL or file path into the scene.

• modify_light

  Modify properties of an existing light.

• pause_simulation

  Pause the physics simulation.

• play_simulation

  Start the physics simulation.

• refresh_robot_library

  Force re-scan the asset server for available robots. Use this if new robot assets were added.

• reload_script

  Reload a Python controller from a file on disk.

• search_usd

  Search the NVIDIA USD asset library by text description, then load the best match.

• set_joint_positions

  Set target joint positions on a robot via ArticulationAction.

• set_physics_params

  Configure physics engine parameters.

• step_simulation

  Advance the simulation by exactly N physics frames on a FROZEN timeline.

• stop_simulation

  Stop the physics simulation and reset to spawn state.

• transform_object

  Set the transform (position, rotation, scale) of an existing object.
