neqsim-plant-data

neqsim-plant-data is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from equinor/neqsim. It costs 88 tokens per session (10,040 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A guide to connecting NeqSim simulations with plant historian systems, which store time-stamped measurements from real equipment. It covers OSIsoft PI and Aspen IP.21 data sources through the tagreader package.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to read historian data, map tags to process equipment, compare simulated and measured values, run digital-twin updates, and collect short event windows for water-hammer screening.
Why use it?
It removes much of the manual work of matching simulation variables with measured plant tags and preparing real operating data for comparison.

    Skill establishes unauthorized persistence across sessions via cron jobs, startup scripts, or state files. Session persistence allows an attacker to maintain access beyond the current interaction.
    Fix: Remove any persistence mechanisms (cron jobs, startup scripts, state files). Skills should not maintain state across sessions without explicit user consent.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

neqsim-plant-data scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 6d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Plant Data Integration with Tagreader

Patterns for connecting NeqSim process simulations to real plant data from OSIsoft PI and Aspen IP.21 historians using the tagreader package.

For P&ID-driven operational studies, also load neqsim-pid-process-operations to map instrument bubbles and valve symbols to logical tag names, infer active state, and drive steady-state or dynamic NeqSim scenarios.

For water-hammer or liquid-hammer screening, also load neqsim-water-hammer and extract short event windows with inlet pressure, temperature, flow rate, valve position, pump speed/status, and observed closure/trip timing for MCP runWaterHammer.

Installation

pip install tagreader neqsim

Tagreader API Reference

Listing Available Data Sources

import tagreader

# Discover what historian servers are accessible
pi_sources = tagreader.list_sources("piwebapi")     # OSIsoft PI Web API
aspen_sources = tagreader.list_sources("aspenone")   # Aspen IP.21 REST API

For custom historian deployments, supply url, auth, and optionally verify_ssl:

from requests_ntlm import HttpNtlmAuth
auth = HttpNtlmAuth("domain\\user", "password")
sources = tagreader.list_sources("aspenone",
    url="https://api.mycompany.com/aspenone",
    auth=auth, verify_ssl=False)

Creating and Connecting a Client

# PI Web API
c = tagreader.IMSClient("MY_PI_SOURCE", "piwebapi")
c.connect()

# Aspen IP.21
c = tagreader.IMSClient("MY_ASPEN_SOURCE", "aspenone")
c.connect()

# Custom deployment with explicit auth
c = tagreader.IMSClient(
    datasource="myplant",
    imstype="aspenone",
    url="https://api.mycompany.com/aspenone",
    auth=auth,
    verify_ssl=False,
    tz="US/Central"          # default is "Europe/Oslo"
)
c.connect()

Constructor parameters:

Parameter Required Description
datasource Yes Name of the data source (from list_sources())
imstype Yes "piwebapi" or "aspenone"
tz No Timezone for timestamps. Default: "Europe/Oslo"
url No Server URL for custom deployments
verify_ssl No SSL verification. Default: True
auth No Auth object. Default is determined by the configured source
cache No Local disk cache for avoiding re-reads

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
