README Excerpt

MCP server that puts [PyVISA](https://github.com/pyvisa/pyvisa) in front of AI tools so they can discover, **learn**, and drive oscilloscopes (and other SCPI instruments) over USB, GPIB, serial, and Ethernet. This project is not affiliated with the PyVISA maintainers. It uses the public PyVISA API. SCPI has no “dump every menu” command. Instead the server builds a **local brain** per instrument (keyed by `*IDN?`) and reuses it next session.
