Read-only analysis of Mitsubishi Electric MELSEC PLC projects saved by GX Works3 (.gx3): trace why a coil never turns on through the ladder logic, find where a device is written and read, search by device comment, and separate conditions that arrive from physical inputs, HMI or network communication. Runs entirely locally and never modifies the project; no project-mutating command is exposed. Unofficial, not affiliated with Mitsubishi Electric.
MCP server for video analysis — extracts transcripts, key frames, OCR text, and annotated timelines from video URLs. Supports Loom and direct video files (.mp4, .webm). Zero auth required.
