DiffBeam Gaussian Beam Optics is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server: Read-only optical catalog search plus DiffBeam server, schema, and catalog revision metadata. In practice that means any MCP-compatible AI assistant can call DiffBeam Gaussian Beam Optics's tools directly — the model decides when to use them in a conversation or agent run.
It's a hosted (remote) server — point your client at https://catalog-api.gaussian-beam.com/mcp/ and you're connected, with nothing to install locally. The current release is v2.0.0, published under the Apache-2.0 license, with source at RiaRosenauer/diffbeam-mcp on GitHub.
DiffBeam Gaussian Beam Optics is listed under Design on mcp.site and works with any MCP client — Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf, Zed and the rest of the ecosystem — using the install snippets below.
