This record is the Windows desktop plant-design application for piping, ducting, cableways, steel, and deliverables. It is not Hull, not standalone Outfitting, and not eShare. The product page states the Web API integrates with material-management systems and lists Windows 10 and 11. Vendor docs store Plant/Outfitting data in library and project COS databases. The Web API is a separately installed REST service that talks to configured COS servers, not to the desktop GUI. Opened 2024T3 reference pages support OAuth 2.0 client-credentials at /api/oauth/token and Bearer JWT, plus COS object read, catalog parts, documents, EDM create/update, and 3D import/export. The marketing article names 3D Plant Design as a Web API target and documents IFC/JT export and document DWG fetch. Plant/Outfitting also ships the CADMATIC script language and COS script functions (.mac files, dm_sc compiler). Material limits are an on-prem COS plus Web API service, 30-minute tokens in the opened user guide, many design changes remaining manual, and no public .NET/COM contract. No first-party MCP was established. Computer-use viability is unassessed.\n"
