automation writer

Port: ProjectWriter
Module: tckit.adapters.writers.automation_writer.AutomationWriter
Status: Phase 2 — planned

Writes ST code and structural elements via the Windows bridge → TcXaeShell.DTE.17.0 COM automation interface.

Configuration

{ "writer": "automation_interface" }

Requires the bridge service to be running. Set BRIDGE_URL in .env.

How it works

Calls CreateChild() (new POUs/methods) and ConsumeXml() (code updates) on the ITcSmTreeItem automation interface. GUIDs are assigned automatically by XAE — never generated manually.
