Supercharge Your Development with AI That Actually Knows Luminary Cloud

Your AI coding assistant just learned our entire SDK. The new Luminary Cloud MCP Server connects your AI agents in VSCode and Cursor directly to our platform, giving them insider knowledge and live project access.

What You Get

Faster development. Your AI understands our APIs, best practices, and your specific projects—no more generic suggestions or outdated examples.

Less debugging. Get exact patterns and functions for your simulation pipelines instead of hunting through docs.

Zero friction. Works instantly with VSCode, Cursor, Claude, and Gemini CLI.

Key Features

• Deep SDK knowledge with every function and best practice
• Live access to your actual Luminary Cloud projects
• Context-aware code generation for simulation scripts
• Real-time help without leaving your IDE

Get Started in Minutes

In-App Notebook

We’ve launched an AI-assisted, zero-setup Python Notebook to streamline scripting, visualization, and post-processing with the Luminary SDK—integrated directly into the application. Skip environment setup and SDK installs; just open the notebook, and you're ready to start coding.

The integrated AI assistant helps generate and complete scripts quickly, while an interactive 3D widget lets you explore simulation results, compare runs, and analyze data without leaving within the platform.

You can access the notebook from the sidebar in the Projects page. Read more about its features and best practices here.

Enhancements

• When the assistant analyzes data, the generated code will now be provided so you can use it in your own scripts

Fixed Issues

• General performance improvements and bug fixes

Here's what's new in our latest update:

Enhancements

• Iterations per output now defaults to zero. For LMA runs, this will result in a solution being written out after each adaptation run.

Fixed Issues

• Resolved an issue with internal fan curves.

Here's what's new in our latest update:

Enhancements

• Robust startup is now the default for default solution controls
• General performance enhancements

Fixed Issues

• Resolved an issue when defining a refinement region via the SDK

Here's what's new in our latest update:

Enhancements

• Failed LMA meshes can now be used for simulations, allowing you to test different settings on the mesh
• Volume download is now available for failed and suspended simulations
• You can now hide all tags in the geometry tree

Fixed Issues

• General performance improvements

Here's what's new in our latest update:

Enhancements

• You can now hide all Tags in the Geometry tree
• Use the SDK to extract Intersection Curves

Fixed Issues

• Resolved an issue with LMA mesh interpolation

Here's what's new in our latest update:

Select All in Current View

You can now click Select All from the contextual right-click menu to select everything in the current view, excluding hidden surfaces.

Results Table: Download All

The Download All button in the Results table now includes additional columns: credits, run time, iterations, date, and run status.

Enhancements

• You can now plot the point coordinates of an intersection curve or line plot
• Right-clicking on a tag now provides all the same options available for surfaces—such as Hide and Hide Others (Isolate)
• The visualizer now maintains the center of rotation, improving zoom-to-cursor functionality and directional surface inspection
• We've added data analysis commands to the AI Assistant's suggested items

Fixed Issues

• Applying settings from the library no longer removes the job priority setting
• The caret icon has been restored for the project dropdown menu. As before, the menu now opens on left-click
• Some monitor points in transient simulations were not updating—this has been fixed.
• Taking screenshots in the Setup tab now works as expected

Here's what's new in our latest update:

Reference Frame for Spatially Varying Heat Profile BC and Porous Media

• For spatially varying heat boundary conditions, you can now view the reference frame associated with each surface, which will be used to apply the spatial variation.
• For porous media behaviors, you can now view the reference frame associated with each volume, which will be used to apply Darcy and Forchheimer coefficients.

Note: This feature is currently incompatible with tags.

Tags as References for Meshing

Tags can now be used as references to volumes for mesh sizing, supporting robust mesh automation pipelines.

OpenCSM Integration

We now support integration with OpenCSM, developed by Engineering Sketch Pad. OpenCSM is an open-source CAD package that enables parametric geometry modeling.

Enhancements

• The project dropdown menu (previously accessed by clicking the project name in the header) has been updated to a right-click context menu
• You can now define the Value Range for Threshold Plots using "Less than" and "Greater than" conditions
• Support has been added for newer versions of many CAD file formats
• You can now plot X/Y/Z coordinates on 2D plots for both intersection curves and lines, when using client-side rendering
• SDK release 0.15.1 is now available, introducing support for cloning a Scene

Fixed Issues

• Resolved an issue preventing inversion of heat flux using a negative value

Here's what's new in our latest update:

2D Power Maps

We've released 2D Power Maps, enabling you to apply a spatially varying heat flux boundary condition. Read more here.

Projects and Results Filters

Add filters to streamline navigation and simplify views based on data in the Projects and Results tables.

Other Enhancements

• You can now select tags as inputs for geometry modifications
• For the projects and results tables, use shift-click on the checkboxes to select multiple rows

Fixed Issues

• Performance improvements when switching between projects
• The geometry tree did not automatically scroll to a surface upon selection

Here's what's new in our latest update:

Subtract using Shrinkwrap

The Shrinkwrap tool now supports volume subtraction. This is particularly useful for creating clean outer envelopes while omitting internal components or voids.

Other Enhancements

• We've added filters to the projects and results table
• The Plasma color map is now available

Fixed Issues

• The footer was not being shown when opening a simulation tab
• Tags were not usable when creating an Intersection Curve
• Reloading a results page reset the filter state
